I don’t care about TikTok too much, it speaks to me to show a persons maturity or not if they use it. No surprise footballers are all a bit childish.

It’s a bit more crass of him to be choosing to mime a song that has him doing lyrics about your mum being on benefits whilst he earns tens of thousands a week. Not a good look, Luke.

It's not his tik tok, I highly doubt he chose the song and most likely he didn't choose the line that the creator got him to say. Indeed he may have said multiple lines (possibly all of it) and it was the creator which stitched it all together and decided to use that one for him.

Tik tok is stupid and I don't use it myself, but if I was at a party and everyone was having a good time and decided to do a little clip like that I'd join in.

He would be fine as Licha's understudy as left of the back three, for the fifteen or so games he's fit a season.

If he could stay fit I think there's a fairly good chance he'd end up first choice in that role with Martinez being his backup. He'd be much more comfortable defending the wide areas and his extra speed and strength would mean he couldn't be targeted as much.

'If' he could stay fit. Which seems very unlikely these days unfortunately.

Well then the creator has made him look a mug. Hope he’s had a word

Wonder how many times this exact sentence has been written in all of his threads combined down the years. We've got to move on from this guy, sooner fans get that through their heads the better. Even if we can't get rid of him right now, a key signing needs to be made, as if he has been sold.

I’m triggered by how ass the lyrics are, aside from people lip syncing I couldn’t care less. If he’s fit and playing he can lip sync anything he wants

So he's only allowed to appear in a daft tiktok video for four seconds if he's not injured? Otherwise he must sit alone in a windowless room.

Wow I thought better of you.

*Shakes head in disappointment*
 
I rate Shaw as one of the best LBs around. I have a strong feeling he's going to be like Rooney and physically done in his early 30s. Same build, playing first team football at 17 etc. The constant muscle injuries and broken leg can't help.

It's when you realise why they say that "if" is the biggest word in the English language!

Remember hearing the same hypothetical conditional statements about Martial, Jones, etc. He can't stay fit, therefore it's a pointless conversation. End of story.

He's physically done now. Frankly he's been finished since his mid 20s.

I think he's gone the same way as Phil Jones. If he ever manages more than 20 appearances in a season again I'd be surprised.
 
Comparing him to Rooney as if his natural physique is the overriding factor is a bit disingenuous.

I mean I get that it's meant from a fitness point of view amd dont think its a nonsense point at all, but Rooney never disappeared for entire seasons or was so inconsistent with his performance levels.

Even during a bad season he was one of the best players in the league if not the world. Shaw is sometimes a very good left back for the first 60 minutes of a game.

The problem with Shaw isn't as much his genetics or physical build catching up with him. It's that he's basically not played football in nearly 2 years and was never consistently that good when he did. It was very much hot one season, "we need to sign a left back" the next.

Also Rooney admitted his problem was significantly caused by drink and not looking after himself. I don't know anything about Shaw's personal life choices but our last manager felt concerned enough to intervene in what he chose to eat.
 
He’d be really good option at LCB as he was great even as a LCB in back 4… But given his injury record you can’t expect Shaw to be available unfortunately.

People are making a mountain out of this lip sync thing. He's possibly my favourite United player and would suit that LCB role perfectly but his fitness just can't be relied upon. He should go but this noise about him slagging off mums on benefits is nothing really, I doubt he wrote the song or came up with the idea for the video.

You must really dislike this squad if he's your favourite one.
 
When is this guy expected to be back again? I don’t have much faith that he won’t break down again but it will be nice to have some options for the left centre back role (wouldn’t trust his fitness at all for the LWB position)

"Luke Shaw is nearer than Mason Mount", Amorim said on Wednesday. "Luke, we'll see in the next week or two. We'll see if he's returning"

My reading of that, is that Shaw is expected back in main group training quite soon, then they will have to decide when to give him mins.

:lol:

Believe me I’m clutching at straws, just hoping things will get better and the team will improve with more players available. Despite being a very good player when on form and technically very good I don’t even rate him half much as most of the caf does but he could be useful.

If we’re going to keep him and he has a future here it surely has to be as a left centre back where he won’t have to do as much running.

Good to know. Thanks. Disappointed Mount is still a fair bit away from being fit though.
 
Always fear this thread being active.

Is he injured for longer?
Or is it people ranting that he's never fit, needs to go etc etc.
 
Glad to have him back and let's see if he can give us at least 5 striaght matches without an injury ( I highly doubt it )
should be the first one to go in the summer..
 
I can't even get excited about his return because he'll be back on the treatment table before long. Good to have a rotation option with Licha though.
 
We see the best of Shaw when he has competition. I'm hopeful that enough care has been taken and he can return to full fitness.
 
Poor Dorgu will have his lifeblood drained to give Shaw a few more weeks of fitness.
 
I don't really consider him part of the squad anymore honestly. Very much doubt he even makes 10 appearances more for us.
 
What is he doing getting back to fitness, there's not even a WC or Euro's coming soon, nor is his contract almost up?!
