One of the few players in the team that doesn't piss themselves when pressed and basically locked down the left flank tonight defensively. Crazy to see the difference between him and Valencia.
Took our best corner 
I seriously think he is the ONLY bright spot of the season, all the other players had get worst but I feel good about Shaw. Under a new manager I think we can finally have the left back we though we bought back in 2014.
Give him Cornerkick duty.
The thing that sticks out for me with Shaw is just his natural ball confidence, it's very hard to dispossess him from it. A very useful outlet to have in tight games.
However he's not dribbling like he used to pre-injury, which is a huge shame. He used to be able to drive to the byline and get a cross in, or make forward runs which he's not really doing any more. I think it's because that's how he sustained his leg break against PSV - running at full stride - and he's now reluctant to do it. Understandable if so, but it's a shame to not see it.

I think he has improved but when you compare him to the best full backs in the league is is still a way behind. Needs to attack and cross instead of taking the easy ball infield.
The engine on him is Amazing. Rashford was breathless around 60th min but this guy just keep going past him up and down.
It looked to me like he was trying to win it on his own in last minutes. He was everywhere on that left side. Keep it up Luke.
As others said, our best player alongside Pogba this season.

Rashford took like 7-8 corners and they were all pathetic attempts, Shaw takes one finds Lukaku instantly, then on the next corner Rashford is back on and regular service resumed.Took our best corner
I was watching and thinking what the actual feck?
Really good performance yesterday from him, his work rate is excellent I can't remember if he's always been like that. He was the only one who looked interested in winning at times, not sure he'll ever be the best LB in the world but he's good enough to be starting for us.
Another good performance. Solid and puts in the effort
I agree, there haven't been any other positives and he has been the only bright spark this season. Considering where he was 2 months ago I'm happy to see the progress he made and locking down that LB slot.
Simply the one player exceeding expectations this season.
His stamina has improved a lot it has to be said.
Doesn't look as heavy either.
Been very good.
Not yet signed a new deal though.

Confidence has turned him into a completely different player. He takes the initiative, he looks sharp.
Amazing he's able to rise above what others are showing. Lukaku, Pogba, Matic & Sanchez are all far better players, but seem to be stuck in a rich vein of crap form.
Player of the season so far. That corner was better than any other the entire night.
Amazing what happens when you suddenly start playing well, people think you look thinner!
Now to remain as good at everything else and add a proper cross to his skill set. If you play for a top tier team as a fullback, you absolutely have to be able to whip in a pinpoint cross to your centre forwards.
Only saw the last 30mins but he played a brilliant first time pass from the edge of the box to Pogba through several Valencia players.
Pogba should have done better with that.

And yet plenty wanted him gone/sold last season. Patience is needed with talented youngsters, as they mature in thinking.

He’s back back now. Give him that deal.
He's very good passer of the ball and in general his technique is great and easy on the eye.
Needs a bit more variety in his crossing, it's not quite there yet but still, I like having him at LB.
Shaw would look even better in a more attacking setup. Other managers give your Alonsos, Milners, Mendys, Trippiers not just freedom to join forward but also active instructions.
Always been his weakest asset of his game. Defensively and in the build up of attacks I think he's always been great, though. Loving this run he's finally getting in the team!
Looking far far better than he has for a long time and fast staking his claim as the definite go-to at LB
He's having a really good season so far, was good again today. Is it 2019 his contract expires?
Yep. We offered a new one in the summer apparently but Shaw turned it down as he said he wanted to prove that he deserved one first. Hopefully new contract is agreed before January.
Wow, very impressive attitude if true.
Think I've been underrating him on a technical level. His first touch is always on point and he's a good passer. Just needs to improve his crossing but it looks like he's back.
Played with a lot of drive but lacked a bit of quality on his final ball today.
Give him the contract before someone else does.
Injured again apparently.
