Luke Shaw

There are 9 worse players in our starting XI than Shaw. Focus your energy on them.

I wish we’d gone for Andy Robertson instead at the time, a 3rd of the price snd Miles better.

The difference in the two players' projection is nuts. Shaw was a hugely talented young player at Southampton but seems to have went to United and simply not put the effort in. Whereas Robertson worked his ass off through the divisions and hasn't stopped working.

Just shows you hard work always beats talent.

Robertson clearly is a more talented attacker than Shaw, which isn’t to detract from his hard work.

I find the comparison strange. Liverpool simply brought a better player.

I'd say at the time both were bought, Shaw was by far the higher rated.

??? Assume that’s a wum? Roberson was always more talented than shaw.. and he’s worked a lot harder- though shaw has stepped up this season, he’s just nowhere near as good


Berba - the comparison was that both were available at the time, both play the same position. We went for hype, Liverpool bought shrewdly.

A wum to say hard work trumps talent??? Robertson was nothing special at Hull but has just gotten better and better every season due to hard work and good coaching.

Generally speaking Shaw is a very solid defender, the major issue with him seems to be his fragile mentality.

I've never been a fan but hes a decent defender. Never worth 30m.
