If Shaw cannot get a game ahead of him then he has to move on-it's like being lower on the list of potential babysitters than Gary Glitter

Mourinho likes his versatility but for periods of the game Martial ended up playing LB while Darmian was just strolling. His inclusion impacted us negatively both defensively and offensively. Has to go.
Spot on. He's a average player who shouldn't be playing at this level.
You make it sound like Shaw is so much better than him. Neither are good enough for United.If Shaw cannot get a game ahead of him then he has to move on-it's like being lower on the list of potential babysitters than Gary Glitter
This level being United, probably.
This level being a cup game to rotate / rest others, I think its fine. eg, play him in the Europa League second leg as well and it wont be a problem.

Darmian is a Southampton level player. Shaw the same.
I don't think he's good enough for us no matter the competition. I don't think he will play in the EL game either.
He just doesn't do anything that well. His defending is average and attacking wise he does almost nothing.
I get what youre saying long term, but I was mostly talking about this season. He will do a "job" for us. I do agree we need to upgrade on him however.
Shaw wasn't that good before the injury. Hes worthless going forward. Can't cross or anything. United is all about pacey attacking full backs. Thats why Evra, Neville, Irwin were so good here.You are so wrong-Shaw has great potential and if he gets back to where he was before the leg break he will be here for years-Darmian will not-he is nowhere near Premier League standard-as proved by being out of his depth today up against players from a team at the bottom of the Championship.
Form is temporary, class is permanent!
Definitely once he gets back onto his natural foot it won't be long before he's marauding up our right side once again. Turning fullbacks inside out and whipping crosses in for fun. In Italy he was known as the white Cafu.
No shit Sherlock. That's exactly what I meant.

Shaw is like a third CB. Nowhere near world class potential. He'll be a midtable PL player like Cresswell and the like. I'd argue Bertrand would be a much better LB for us than Shaw. But to be honest, I think Daley Blind is abolutely fine as our first choice.
Think we need to cut him some slack. He only plays a game every month and it's hard to find any rhythm whoever you are
Very good defender, but doesn't bring anything.
It's a bit if shame because when he's playing like this, he's not "covered" offensively by the likes of Martial, Rashford and Lingard who doesn't produce enough.
But I don't really understand how he can get a game in front of Shaw, especially against a lower team.
I understand Shaw's injury and the need to rebuild his legs and body, but he needs to play to be fit.
He had a great start to his United career, but that's about it. Just not good enough
