Manchester United Football Club were dealt a cruel blow when Luke Shaw broke his leg in two places and was all-but ruled out for the remainder of the season. Louis van Gaal has had his say on the left-back position, and he has hinted that we don’t have a good backup for Shaw.
“In my opinion we don’t have a good substitute for Luke Shaw. That is the sort of blow that can come along.” Van Gaal said.
Its always going to be tough to replace a player of Luke Shaw’s calibre and talent. The young man made an excellent start to the season and was without doubt one of our top performers. It was unfortunate when he was struck down with injury, and it certainly gave the manager a real problem.
However the players that have come in have done a superb job. Matteo Darmian did well out there, we always have Rojo and Blind, and even Ashley Young too.
