He'll be back injured by March.
He has a contract until 2027. No one’s gonna buy him.

Our list of players who were/are constantly injured for multiple years is insane
He was easily one of the top FBs in the league under Ole and for the most part in ETH's first season. If you actually do some research into it you'll find how much his leg break affected his fitness. He basically had to learn how to walk and run again.And who exactly is to blame for his weight fluctuations ? Never looks like an athlete, a basic prerequisite for a fullback. Another overrated English footballer who has been given more buffet than he deserves.
Shaw is emblematic of Manchester United's failure. A symbol of rewarding under performance and poor standards. Same goes for Maguire

Looks like we're best avoiding M&S when doing our purchases.Luis Saha

I think that 22/23 season with the WC wedged in between caused some serious long term damage to a lot of players.
Ignore that report
ThisHe was injury prone way before that.

Is he worse than Phil Jones at this point? Really hope he just retires
It has to be criminal. The way some wages and fees were negociated the past 4 years can only mean someone benefitted financially from them, there is no other explanation.This
Whoever renewed his contract last time was criminally optimistic or a complete moron. Probably both
Ignore that report
Yes he tried to play for his country at a major tournament. Massive crime that.
Can you please list some instances apart from this summer's Euros where he was unavailable to play for us but playing for England?
Can only agree. I can understand the frustration, but some reactions are a disgraceI wrote a few months ago that he made his England debut the year before Harry Kane. Shaw has 34 caps, Kane more than triple that at 103. He’s not prioritising England, he just wants to play football. For Utd or England.
The way some on here respond to their frustration at his absence is truly embarrassing.
Why can't footballers be sacked.
Any other walk of life and he would've been sacked years ago.
The same reason they can't walk out during the contract and sign for another club? Surely, this concept can't be that difficult to understand?
Completely agree. Like he's sitting at home delighted with himself at each new injury setback. I'm as frustrated as anybody that he's never available for us but he must be heartbroken.I wrote a few months ago that he made his England debut the year before Harry Kane.

The contract is the contract. It’s up to the parties to agree on the terms. A player isn’t going to agree to a contract if he can be sacked for getting injured.I thought I'd pick you too ask as you are obviously clearly clued up on all things contract.
What's the reason managers can be sacked under contract but players can't then?
Players can be sacked, but like managers the club will have to pay up their entire contract. Utd can sack Shaw by paying the remainder of his contract, just as they did with Ten Hag.I thought I'd pick you too ask as you are obviously clearly clued up on all things contract.

They can be but unless it’s for gross misconduct we still have to pay up the contract. Same goes with managers. The difference being that managers don’t attract a fee the same way a player can.I thought I'd pick you too ask as you are obviously clearly clued up on all things contract.

Of course he is, he can't do the thing he loves. People act as if Shaw owed them something and he's letting them down by daring to be injured, when it's just that. A guy being injured on the jobThe thing that confuses me the most is that right now Shaw is only doing the crap part of his job. Weights, gym work, physio. recovery etc. Probably a lot of individual work. What he’s missing is the exciting, adrenaline filled part with all the camaraderie. He’s probably more frustrated than any Utd fan.
And there's also no point in keeping a disgruntled, wantaway managerThey can be but unless it’s for gross misconduct we still have to pay up the contract. Same goes with managers. The difference being that managers don’t attract a fee the same way a player can.
