This. That Southampton performance was disgracefulWhat was I saying ? This wasn't even his worst game - he was worse against Southampton.

Yeah when I watch him this season it feels like he thinks he is Beckham and just tries to whip it in from wherever, however. Incessant crossing, shit defending and not varying it up at all. Hes obviously got loads of talent but definitely having a down period.His problem is that he's playing with a very arrogant attitude this season. He likes to receive the ball and whip in a cross from where he stands. Whether he has the space and time to do so doesn't matter. Also putting in minimal effort in tracking back. He's a brilliant player who needs a good telling off
I've seen this a few times and I've laughed every time...He's no Jon Flanagan AKA The Scouse Cafu.
@harms had no problem talking about him in terms of best back 4 ever, so...Wasn't he being compared to Becks a while back?
No, he was supposedly already betterWasn't he being compared to Becks a while back?
People argued he was at Maldini, Lahm, Cafu level.Wasn't he being compared to Becks a while back?
I'm not sure that anyone aside from the scousers did though?People argued he was at Maldini, Lahm, Cafu level.

Bosnian had him as the World’s best RB.I'm not sure that anyone aside from the scousers did though?
TAA is the best right back in the world tbf so easily him. Unfortunate for AWB who is a young excellent fullback, but I cant see him getting too many apps over his career barring a big injury for TAA. Would have Wan Bissaka as 2and choice though, and Walker in the squad as well.
He basically lost possession once every 2 minutes? Hard to believe.Tweet

These days Shaw is basically the player of ours least likely to give the ball away. I don't know if that's true, but it certainly feels that way. Great touch and passing on him in terms of keeping things ticking.It would be interesting to see Shaws numbers, I reckon they would be very much in the other end of the scale.

No, it's not. And he'll likely have an outstanding career for the next decade.I would have thought he’s an outstanding young player having a poor season under unprecedented conditions, having basically won everything he’d dreamed about at 20. It’s not that surprising, surely?
That’s perfectly described how I feel when watching our gamesThese days Shaw is basically the player of ours least likely to give the ball away. I don't know if that's true, but it certainly feels that way. Great touch and passing on him in terms of keeping things ticking.
