Shaw should be getting the AWB treatment. Not ideal starting with Dalot and an inexperienced Malacia but we are where we are.

Only one who showed any mentality. Should be a starter based on just that.
And McT for that throw-in situation.
The only positive to take from today. I hope he isn't dragged down in to the gutter by the rest of the fools in the team
More signings like this please. 10 - 15 million quid, hungry players with energy and fight. Replace the whole team with these kind of signings. We'll be much better off.
He attempted and completed the first dribble around the 80th minute..
That's how bad we were
Agree with the first part but Dalot has no business playing for United ever again, we would be better off playing a fecking GK at RB than that useless bastard.
That attitude will get him far.
Had spirit - hopefully, we don't suck it out of him.
Protect him at all costs. Progressive!
I agree mate. But like I said what other option do we have?
That he is still not starting after what I saw from him this pre-season yet AWB is so easily droppable is concerning.
Looked good, needs to start.
He plays like it actually matters to him, which for the time being will do.
He covers ground and sprints with intensity. This is a huge improvement, not just on Shaw but on the majority of the team.
best signing so far. looks like our best player
I missed this!
Good on the lad.@GifLord we need to see this.
Honestly, he deserves to start ahead of Luke "Anderson as a LB" Shaw. It should be a no-brainer now.
He's looking good so far and looks to have the right attitude. Proves that we don't need to go out and spend 80m on every position to build a better team.
Interesting little fact. Anderson once stated in an interview left back was his favourite position and asked to play there.
Also, as goofy as he was, he had some fight in him.
This guy has great attitude and intensity in this game , which a lot of United players don’t have.
ETH should try him as starter.

Look confident in his ability, unfortunately when the rot sets in that will soon fade.
Clubs rotten to the core.

He should have started today. I'm a huge fan of Shaw at his best, but he hasn't been at his best for over a season and needs to be made to fight if he wants to get back into the team. Malacia should have the role until Shaw proves it should be otherwise.
Yep, it was always obvious that this window we needed to go for quantity rather than quality in terms of players. Obviously that doesn't mean sign cheap shit players, but signing 5-6 solid hungry players would be better than 2 expensive bigger name players.
timestamp?
Looked good but Brentford was just defending. It is a whole different story if he starts. People underestimate how difficult the PL is.
Also, he is only 5 feet 7 (1.69 m) and if he plays next to the 5 feet 9 Martinez, they will be mauled, and the whole team will have to work hard just to help those two.

Yeah it was a fantastic signing and the reason why players like Sesko and the like interest me more because you are trying to find them before they become household names instead of letting a feeder club buy them for 15m and then charge you 50 after they continue playing well.
One of the bright sparks.
Quite clearly will.be our starting LB from now. Showed everything in his cameo Shaw has not.
First choice now.
He has the mentality you need to succeed in the PL. He's still a bit raw but he should be the first name on the team sheet right now regardless. Sign more players like this please and we will hopefully take fewer batterings.
100%
Early signs are very good.
He's a guy that'll actually make runs and go up and down the pitch. Don't think we've had someone like him since Tony Valencia.
Martinez may yet be our starting LB given that he cost £50m and clearly can't play anywhere else. Either way, Shaw's days may be numbered.
I see the thinking, but what he showed when he came on today definitely earns him a start - albeit against Liverpool!
Somewhere around the 57-60 min mark if I remember correctly.
Did more talking in 45 minutes then AWB has done in 3 years... So that's nice.
this?
Why on earth did he sign this guy only to start Shaw? I think considering the fee and all this was the best signing so far.
That's the one, good man.
I actually made a mental note of the time for exactly this reason
