What's he done.? Been showing immense potential again but no end product.?
Ruled himself out of a game with flu & clearly upset Jose......who never forgets things like that apparently. 
He has looked good, but also got caught out with a few positional errors early on. I don't think JM fully trusts him.

Darmian is actually not at all bad at LB though. I think he's played for Italy in that position before. In the meantime, Shaw's career stagnates even more. This is where potentially great English youngsters go - into the reserve ranks at big clubs. He'll end up at WBA.
He needs to notice Ryan Bertrand, who has gone past him in terms of effectiveness. Still, he's 21. He can go much lower than being left out at ManU.

Just imagine how good he'd be if he had two years of game time experience under his belt. Saying that, I'm amazed he isn't 18 stone by now! 
Broken leg aside, you said it.Just imagine how good he'd be if he had two years of game time experience under his belt. Saying that, I'm amazed he isn't 18 stone by now!
(would have put three years were it not for that dreadful challenge)
I forgot about Shaw, shows how little we've seen of him at Man Utd. Seems like a waste of talent.
Good piece on Mark Clattenburg by Marina Hyde on the Guardian website.. very funny in places..
He always needed nurturing at Saints....was getting kidded about how often he spoke to Nicola (though some was because his school work was behind). He will have grown up since then, but he was the wrong sort of lad to be thrown into the lion's den of Old Trafford. Need some experience of life's ups and downs to cope with that.

I saw John Terry being interviewed by Steve Gerrard on some Youtube channel recently. Terry said that Mourinho would walk right past anyone on the treatment table and completely blank them. If you were injured you didn't exist, until you were fit again. Terry didn't really know why he did that either, if it was supposed to motivate the player to speed his own recovery, or if it was something else. It might go some way to explaining how he lost the dressing room at Chelsea anyway.

Klopp says reaching the EFL semis has ruined Liverpool's season. So not only did we knock them out but we stopped them winning the PL title.

Just imagine if they'd been unfortunate enough to qualify for Europe last season!http://www.skysports.com/football/n...iverpool-form-down-to-efl-cup-fixture-pile-up

When the truth is that they can't score without Sadio Mane being in the team. The difference between him being in their side and not is like night and day.
