Luke Shaw is currently nursing his 19th separate injury as a Manchester United player, a foot injury that has kept him out of the last two matches.
He remains a doubt for the Europa League trip to Sheriff Tiraspol on Thursday, a game he surely would feature in but for his setback. He was possibly in line for his third outing of the season in last week’s 1-0 loss to Real Sociedad, but for his ill-timed injury.
Shaw hasn’t been seen in first team action since desperately tracking back in vain for Brentford’s fourth first-half goal in last month’s rout. Tyrell Malacia has kept him out of the team ever since his half-time introduction against the Bees.
