Erik ten Hag reveals Luke Shaw's situation

Luke Shaw was absent from the home match against Tottenham, but coach Erik ten Hag confirmed that the problem the English player encountered was not too serious.

MU drew 2-2 with Spurs at Old Trafford, the Red Devils took the lead twice but in the end only had 1 point at home. In this match, Aaron Wan-Bissaka was suddenly used as a left-back, while Diogo Dalot, as usual, still played as a right-back.

When asked about the decision to let the former Crystal Palace star play left back before the match, coach Erik ten Hag admitted: " This is not the first time Wan-Bissaka has played as left back. In the match against Wigan, he also had a period of time in this position.

We expect Luke Shaw to play. He practiced with his teammates in the latest training session, but in the end he was not fit enough to play against Spurs. So we decided to put Aaron on the left and Diogo on the right."

After the match, when asked more closely about Luke Shaw's situation, the Dutch coach added: " He was originally on the starting list against Tottenham, but a little problem kept him from playing. . However, Luke Shaw is fine, I think he will be present in MU's next match."
