Nations League: England star reacts to bench role in Ten Hag’s United team

Manchester United defender, Luke Shaw has reacted to his lack of action in Erik ten Hag’s team.

Ten Hag has promoted summer signing Tyrell Malacia at the expense of Shaw, who has expressed his determination to win his place back in the Red Devils’ XI.

During the time of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at Old Trafford, Shaw was a mainstay as the left-back, but his form dipped last season following his impressive exploits at Euro 2020 with England.

Shaw lost his place in Ten Hag’s team after struggling in the defeats against Brighton and Brentford.

Shaw, has, however, remained part of Gareth Southgate’s England plans despite his lack of action at Old Trafford and reminded his club manager of his attributes last night, scoring in the 3-3 draw against Germany at Wembley.

“I think it shows the trust Gareth has in me,” he said of keeping his England place despite not playing regularly for his club.

“I look at it from a club perspective, I know the first two games weren’t good enough and fully understand the manager has to make decisions.

“Now the team has been winning and we’ve got to bide our time, the only thing I can do is keep supporting the team, keep training hard and just wait for my time because I think if I put my head down and not care it would be a bigger hill to climb when I want to play.”
