Luke Shaw endured a love-hate relationship with Jose Mourinho during their time together at Old Trafford and the advice he later received from his old Manchester United manager can help successor Erik ten Hag discover his best plan to revive the England defender with a World Cup in Qatar looming.
Schooled at the famed Southampton academy, Shaw was technically well-versed on what life at United might be like and yet - eight years on from that high-profile arrival - has been presented with more set-backs and challenges than would have been anticipated from, then, a teenage player with the world at his feet.
Serious injuries along the way have not helped and then, with Mourinho at the helm, Shaw was subject to what is, depending on your stance, some 'questionable' treatment. It seemed for a while that he might not live up to his full potential and then Euro 2020 rolled around.
