Was apparently dropped off to training by his mum so can't be that bad!

Or it means he can't drive because of the injury.

Aside from that what is with these articles? It's almost poking fun at him for being dropped to training by his mother. Last week they had another article about him driving a Corsa.
Trying to shame the kid into buying a sports car or something. Then they'll write another piece on him being a big shot, a la Depay.
Gutter gutter press.
Build them up to knock them down. Or in this case, knock them down then build them up and then knock them down again.
Was literally just thinking of writing something like this … agree 100%
Agree completely.
He's quickly become one of my favourite players in this squad. Really enjoy watching him.
Yeah any of these papers such as The Mirror are absolute rags. How is this even news?
My take on it would be different than yours, though: To me, it appears that the angle they are going for is more along the lines of 'oh look, a footballer isn't driving around in a £70,000 personalised Range Rover' - haha lolz, what kind of a modern day footballer is he'.
Any news on him? Can he make it back for any of our games this week? Asking for a friend who is a big fan of his, and also has him in his fantasy team.
Unlikely, LvG would have probably played him for the reserves tonight if he had been.
It's intended as a cute story not a character assassination. Wind your necks in.
You think? I would guess if he was anywhere near ready for a starting spot on Wednesday he wouldn't have been involved for the reserves tonight. And it looks as though he's been training?
Oh well. I think he's our best left back option without Shaw involved, so a bit of a blow as far as I'm concerned that he's not available.
Maybe he hasn't passed his driving test yet?
Was there not a story about Chris Smalling rocking up to his first day at training with United in a £500 Corsa?
Any update, pretty much disappeared since Shrewsbury...
Hope he's back soon, miss his whipped crosses
Any worries of him looking to leave if he doesn't get games when Shaw is back. Hopefully not as him and Shaw would have the LB position sorted for years.
both will be needed. Shaw was injured a lot in his first year here, perhaps that'll be a consistent. Who knows, CBJ may overtake him.
If Shaw is consistently fit the Borthwick-Jackson won't get a game because it's not like an attacker where ya can replace them in the second half. Ya don't do that with full-backs that are settled.
Players will be rested and CBJ will get his chance. There's a gap between the two but its not as big as lets say Maldini and Philip Neville. I fancy CBJ chances.
Feck you CBJ, I hope he doesn't do a John OShit on me
He is a Manchester lad so hopefully he will be happy with his role next seaon whatever it is as him and Shaw are both quality full-backs that will have that position sorted for the years ahead.
I hope so. After John OShit I vowed not to get too excited about young defenders who shown promise and guess what, I was able to keep that promise with Smalling, Jones, Evans and the crocked twins. However I confess that Im finding it hard not to be carried away by CBJ. Doing that well, at that age, in a defense which is so shit is something that demands respect.

I don't comment loads and loads so maybe its a running joke I've missed that you insult our ex players whenever possible but good god man it's fecking tedious.
But its not meant as an insult. That's exactly what I said whenever he played with us (after his first season)
we don't know if Shaw will be half the player when he comes back, so its a premature conversation. But lets agree that CBJ has made the loss of Shaw more bearable.
I doubt we'll see much of CBJ now that Rojo is fit. A real shame as he looks twice the player the Argentine does.
Can only hope that's not the case, because CBJ and Shaw battling it out for left back for the next decade or so is a far more exciting proposition than Rojo stinking up our left side with after shave and brylcreem for years to come.
Hopefully he'll get booted out the door with this useless manager mate.
Yep Rojo is dire and looks like he is here on a jolly. CBJ every day of the week for me over him.
I feel for him as he has got injured at the worst time for him. His future will probably depend on who the new manager is, As much as I think we need Jose he isn't one that plays alot of younger players so CBJ may not get alot of opportunities under him.
Looking forward to this lad coming back. Should bring a bit more of a sense of calm to the defence than Rojo
He started for the England U19's.
Good to see he's back!

Good. Hopefully there's non of this match rhythm crap now and he's straight back in the starting eleven.
Good to see him back.
Rojo is so poor both defensively and going forwards. He is an ok CB but is a terrible LB. Basically nullifies our attack that side. Will be good for Martial to have CBJ back and even better with a fully fit Shaw.
If Blind's injury keeps him out of the Everton game we should see CBJ back in at LB with Rojo partnering Smalling.
Our best left back option after Shaw, very much looking forward to seeing him back in the team.
I actually thought Rojo was very good for argentina before and after we bought him, he is okay on the ball but that was a very defensive outfit and he was excellent at sitting deep.
If Mourinho comes in we will likely be a very defensive and deep outfit and he might be the preferred left back in a flatter back four, I think we would see the best of him

Knowing LVG, it is more likely that CBJ will play as CB and Rojo as LB. Because Foundations and some other shit.
He was good in the World Cup, at left wing back
he was at left wing back but that was a very very defensive outfit, and he played inside left a few times for argentina over that period too and was solid
