Yep. This one's on the manager.
Why can’t we recall Fernandez ffs
Letting Regulion go back in January is going to go down as one of the dumbest decisions
Can't deny that his fitness issues are a big problem but it's also poor management. When he came back earlier in the season after 3 months out, Ten Hag then started him for the next 8 games in less than a month until he was injured. And now he goes off against Villa, gets labelled as 'doubtful for the weekend' in Thursday's press conference but is risked anyway 3 days later.
Pity because he was making great headway nailing down the RB position and getting attacking returns. This always happens when we start building momentum
Tough situation but a loan might be on the cards if he stays fit in the first half of next season.
Dalot to left-back is the sensible response to this news. Hopefully that other dopey full-back, Wan-Bissaka, is back soon.
There’s nobody else. That’s the main problem, it’s a club and recruitment issue. Shaw with his injuries at this point should be backup to someone and used for rotation and to cover LCB when Martinez gets his customary injury
What about 20 y.o. Sam Murray, who started for the U21 vs City two days ago? Is he not better than 16 y.o. Amass?
Ah yeah I’m sure he had 0 say in any decision to rid ourselves of LB cover considering Malacia is quite possibly dead. Sure thing it was all done purposefully without him knowing.
Reguilon was available for those 8 games earlier in the season. And against Luton there were options with Lindelof or Amrabat. Not ideal but for 1 game to give Shaw an extra week's recovery it's not a disaster.
Not a bad shout at all.
Louie had the balls to drop Joe Riley and CBJ into the deep end and it actually worked out well for us. Can not be worse than moving another player out of position.
We need to end this prolonged trial. This clearly isn't working.
I don’t know anything about him, but the best left-back in the U21’s couldn’t be much worse than Lindy playing there.
Murray is on some sort of loan deal with Rochdale that allows him to still train with our academy and play for the 21's.
Wow. What a fantastic judge of a player you really are...... not.
I imagine if this true, then we'll start preparing for matches with Lindelof at RB and Dalot LB.
It's going to hurt us. We just have to hope that AWB is fit soon and we don't lose Dalot.

I love Shaw. Him and Martinez transform our team with their ability on the ball. But surely we should be looking at bringing a proper replacement in ( god knows whats up with Malacia, hes on target to miss an entire season )
Terrible news - we didn't really have a chance at CL already but now I'm not sure we will get Europa / Conference league at this point.
Annoying. Awb is nowhere near being match fit if reports are too believed. Think it’s better to go amrabat left back for the foreseeable. Lindelof is too much of a liability at left back.
He’s been here for a decade now and except 22/23 season I don’t think he’s ever managed to stay fit throughout the season.
So frustrating.
Its about time we start phasing him out the team.

Need a new LB. Malacia is pointless and I’ve felt for sometime now that while Shaw is a gifted footballer he’s pretty average defensively now.
What he needs is real competition for his place not a clear understudy like Malacia.

Wasn't he fit before last contract extension
Time to be looking for a replacement.
Theo Hernandez would be top of my list. I'd even suggest Robinson at Fulham or Doughty from Luton as potential rotation/backup for his replacement.

Shaw does play with zero Intensity. Its not like the games he plays we are not getting attacked.
I seen a tweet which said he’s missed 200 games for us since he joined. That’s insane and certainly not what you want from your first choice LB regardless of how good he is.
You should stop watching football I think or perhaps start watching it .
We need a new starting LB this summer.
Can Alvaro Fernandez be recalled ?
His injuries phase him out anyway, what we actually need is competent cover to phase in.
The one thing these numbers don't say are the types of injuries. I always worry when a player has muscle injuries, like hamstring or groin injuries, as when they start, they tend to be repetitive. Rooney had foot break injuries, usually after a tackle. Shaw is getting a lot of muscle injuries, usually without any contact, if we forget the leg break where it was not his fault at all.
I hope we show real intent this summer and go for a player of true quality like Theo Hernandez from AC Milan. We can keep Shaw, as he can cover 2 postions, LCB and LB.
Massive loss, especially with no Licha on that side. Lindelof at LB is a disaster. I would sooner blood an academy player right now
The idea of having Dalot as LB is big NO to me. Dalot has just built good connection on the right with Garnacho, why should we ruin it for the sake of playing 2 players (him and Lindelof) out of position? Why don’t we just play one player out of position instead of two and Stick with Dalot on the right. Play Bissaka or Lindelof on the left or May be even amrabat or someone else.
We need to sign new left back because Shaw is so unreliable.

May is long retired fella.

Edit: They don't seem to have any injuries for him in 17/18 season which is wrong I guess. He played only 11 PL games that season

or the Medical department that specializes in this?
Murray's no where near United first team standard.
The manager has final say. He was worried enough to withdraw him at half time the game before and admitted he wasn't sure whether he'd be fit to start for Luton. It's his job to assess that situation and he's made a bad call.
We need to invest in a starter and turn him into back up. He is no longer durable
