Freakish pace.

A bit hot headed in terms of leaving his position actually today but largely excellent again. Kid is top class.

 

[LazyRed-Ninja]

Does somebody have a gif of that impressive sprint ? talking about the one where he layed of with his right to Rooney and Depay almost scoring his hattrick.

 

[BarstoolProphet]

He's fecking rapid. Love him. Pray to some imaginary figure that he stays injury-free.

 

[Obiorahking_]

Shaw was a little sloppy in the beginning leaving too much space in behind him, thus giving Club Brugge some chances to be threatening. Other than that I loved his workrate and on ball defending. Great performance.

 

[MyOnlySolskjaer]

Gif of that run on the right flank anyone?

 

[R'hllor]

I just love the fact that after last season he looked off the pace,he took personal trainer on holidays,now he looks like our own Berry Allen.

 

[DWelbz19]

He's so damn quick, might be quicker than Smalling

 

[El-Manos]

There were people saying absolutely stupid things about him last season. I never doubted him - he's worth all the money.

Fully agree. That performance at the Bridge made me a convinced man last season. Excellent today.

 

[Jazz]

Very proud of him tonight. Seems to be more comfortable now and that pace - unfecking believable!

 

[Witchking]

Excellent player for United. He is top quality. We are well sorted on the left wing.

 

[Cro]

What a gem. If Memphis stays on the left, we could have something really special there over the next few years.

 

[JPRouve]

He's so damn quick, might be quicker than Smalling

He is quicker than Usain Bolt, let alone Mikey.

 

[Slevs]

Miss having a full back running up and down the wing making it his own.

 

[Bogga]

Besides that awful pass, he was really brilliant today! How old is he, imagine having the left back position sorted out for the next 13 years

 

[Ballache]

He's only 20...sky's the limit if he stays fit.

 

[vodrake]

Was getting ripped into by Owen in the commentary for the first half, ate his words in the second.

 

[pocco]

He's been great in all 3 games so far, plus he looked good in preseason.

 

[Red Stone]

Best player over the course of the 90 minutes today, but two goals and an assist will rightly steal the headlines. Probably our best player so far this season, along with Mike.

 

[beergod]

He has looked like the player we thought we bought last summer. That one run

 

[saivet]

This is a different player to last season. He did incredibly well considering Memphis doesn't really track back. He did it all on his own. So complete.

I was going to mention this in the thread. Mata gets a lot of flack on here about his defensive work (nowhere near as bad as some make out) but Memphis doesn't do whole lot of defending. The positive is that it makes us a threat on the counter.

 

[Wednesday at Stoke]

The season of Luke Shaw is looking to be better than the Summer of George.

 

[Classical Mechanic]

He's so damn quick, might be quicker than Smalling

He is a lot quicker than Smalling with the ball at his feet.

 

[kafta]

It's a bit funny how good he is, especially in 1v1 situations. And still so young.

Stay fit and he's due a killer season

 

[Trizy]

I called it at the end of last season that this will be Shaw's season and so far he's proving me right! The fact some on here were negative and doubtful is beyond me.

 

[Walters_19_MuFc]

Wow, just wow. The speed on him is just incredible, and people say he's fat. Behave!

 

[Minimalist]

He's scary good at times. Really impressed with his work tonight.

 

[Rossa]

He is a lot quicker than Smalling with the ball at his feet.

Smalling's recovery pace is really something though. Shaw is blistering, no doubt. Supposedly faster than Walcott and Bale at Southampton.

 

[BarstoolProphet]

He has looked like the player we thought we bought last summer. That one run

Tbh he has looked even better than that. I thought we bought a promising fullback, now he's on the verge of becoming an absolute monster.

 

[Stringer]

Where is the poster who said he wasn't quick? Must be one of the worst observations I have ever read.

 

[ChaddyP]

he's Barry Allen in disguise . He is quick for a supposed "fatty"

 

[justboy68]

Both him and Memphis are so young and talented that they have plenty of time to build up a terrifying partnership down that left flank.

 

[ForlansHair]

One thing for him to improve upon, he tries to be almost too precise with his crosses when he gets past the fullback, especially when he's right by the byline. Rooney made a few good runs in there tonight and sometimes he just needs to whip it in between the defence and the goalkeeper. He always seems to try and pick someone out, ends up getting blocked/pulled back too far and we are hit on the counter quite easily. It will come with experience though.

Only a minor gripe as he was really very good tonight.

 

[Skills]

He's going to be a superstar.

 

[Classical Mechanic]

Smalling's recovery pace is really something though. Shaw is blistering, no doubt. Supposedly faster than Walcott and Bale at Southampton.

You have to be seriously quick leave everyone for dead down the wing, but to run across to the other side of the pitch first, it really was exciting too see.

 

[Robbie Boy]

Beastmode. Outstanding performance.

 

[Hernandez - BFA]

ANOTHER great performance. Enough said.

 

[Devil may care]

He eats up the ground when he drives forward and I love how he deals with one on ones, I think he's shown not only the talent he has but the mentality after a very difficult first season on the back of a huge transfer fee. He can still improve in the final 3rd but I have no doubt he will overcome that as well.

 

[Chorley1974]

beast tonight

 

[chetan]

He was charging in too much in the first half and in turn leaving space behind, a team with better quality would have exploited that a lot more than what Brugge did. Otherwise he was very good. Improved a lot in the second half, that recovery and then the run on the right was just sublime.

 

[Rossa]

You have to be seriously quick leave everyone for dead down the wing, but to run across to the other side of the pitch first, it really was exciting too see.

It really is. He's enjoyable to watch. Him and Depay can be amazing on that left side!
