We need a player to compete and possibly replace him at LB but priorities are elsewhere.
He's been suspendedIs he injured?
Like Pogba one of the few genuinely top players we have in our team imo.
Oh, thought that was for the CL onlyHe's been suspended
The classic "you get better in the CAF eyes for not even playing" also, 10 yellow cards so he's suspended. 10 yellow like a genuinely top player.Is he injured?

? Not sure what point you're making. He's been one of our best players this season.The classic "you get better in the CAF eyes for not even playing" also, 10 yellow cards so he's suspended. 10 yellow like a genuinely top player.
My point is that he's not top class. He is, however, solid and okayish. Our standards are so low nowadays.? Not sure what point you're making. He's been one of our best players this season.
For me his technique on the ball, calmness and defending all make for a top player, I've been saying that since he first came here. His attacking has regressed after his leg break but he's shown glimpses of it this season, especially how hard he is to knock off when he gets running. He was as integral as anyone in that good run we had under Ole over the last few months.
I think he can get there. He has all the tools and still only 23. Under a coach like SAF I think he would've been there already, but he's been collectively yo-yo'ed by Van Gaal and Mourinho.My point is that he's not top class. He is, however, solid and okayish. Our standards are so low nowadays.
He was voted motm in his last 3 appearances, so I call bollocks to that.The classic "you get better in the CAF eyes for not even playing" also, 10 yellow cards so he's suspended. 10 yellow like a genuinely top player.
Not his best game yesterday, but in general he has been at the standard required this season. He can be frustrating because he can be very conservative but that is all.Not the standard we should strive for but far from the first one to replace. I can think of 6 other positions before LB.
I think the bigger issue is that we shouldn't rely on him staying injury free. He looks completely unfit and it's only a matter of time before he gets injured again.What did people make of Roy Keane saying Shaw isn't good enough along with the two CBs?
I love Keane but I think he could be wrong on that one. Shaw has done pretty decent this season, he's improved his general fitness and his touch is fantastic, although his card count is ridiculous because it's the same offence over and over again. That could be related to his fitness still not being 100 %What did people make of Roy Keane saying Shaw isn't good enough along with the two CBs?
I feel really mean for saying it but I thought he looked a bit overweight. Same body issues as Rooney had?I see he is back working with his old dietician again
I think he was pretty good. I'm not sure what he did badly.Simply not good enough. It will take fans another year to catch up.
