Shaw set for United return

Manchester United left back Luke Shaw says he feels great to return to full training after suffering a double leg fracture injury in September last season.

The exciting left-back suffered the injury while playing in last September’s Champions League clash at PSV Eindhoven and frustratingly missed the remainder of the campaign, reports the Manchester United website.

The 21-year-old suggested that he could feature in the Reds pre-season friendly against Wigan Athletic on Saturday.

‘It feels really good,’ Luke said.

‘I think in the last couple of weeks we’ve been training really hard and everyone’s looking forward to the game tomorrow [Saturday], and of course I am as well.’

The England international revealed that he is determined to focus on having a more positive future with Manchester.

‘I don’t know really how to describe it, it was a really tough last eight or nine months until I got out on the training pitch and ever since then I haven’t looked back,’ he added.

‘From now on I’m just going to look forward and carry on doing what I did last year from the start.

‘Everyone helped from the club and from outside the club. My family and friends played a massive part in it. Obviously, I have said it before, but here’s a big ‘thank you’ to the staff here who have looked after me really well and have got me back on the pitch.’

Since returning to full training, Shaw has been impressed by Jose Mourinho’s methods so far.

‘Yeah, it’s been really good, enjoyable. He has a lot of different exercises, the training that we’re doing is sort of working on how we’re going to be playing. Everything is enjoyable and fun but at the same time it’s tactical so we know what we need to do.’
