Champions League - PSV Eindhoven V Manchester United Match Thread

Was it a bad tackle or a lazy one. Didn't look any malice in it for me.

Tackle itself looked good - the trailing leg seems to have pinned Shaws foot whilst the rest of his body was going over the tackle. Looks bad for Shaw.

Best left back in the premier league gone for 2/3 months

Ever hear of the words "IMHO" or "Arguably" ?

Ouch, that was nasty

LuckyGent88

Send him to that spiritual healer in Fiji. The all black winger was back from a broken leg after 3 weeks.

Shaw will be a huge loss. Was really playing well

Think the PSV guy just flung himself at the ball. Not malicious, just clumsy and rash.

Just awful.
He has no luck.

shane.

How bad are these commentators that they didn't realise that the guy broke his leg, tv3's coverage really is dreadful

Actually makes me sad, soon as he puts the niggly injuries behind him that happens. Horrible luck.

After such great play too.

Ya he looks the real deal in fairness. Poor lad. Wouldn't wish it on anyone.

I don't like that Utd jersey and I've just figured out why.



Looks way too similar to the Chelsea one a few years ago.

Thats a year of his career gone. Thats why De Gea and any other player should be careful about being out of contract. It can all so easily happen.

2/3 months? Much longer I would have thought??

Sometimes a clean break is better then a fracture in tems of healing but iits really bad it could be career threatening obviously.

Ya could tell from the players reaction its a nasty one.

Probably shouldn't have lunged in recklessly then, if it bothers him that much.

Horrible injury for Shaw.
No football fan wants to see that no matter which opposing team is it.
Hope all goes well for him

Drumpot

Just rewound it there and his leg bent a bit like that guy David buust for Coventry! Looks really nasty!!! At the very least it was a clean break. You could see the physios knew immediately!

RobertKK

Memphis is so sad for his closest friend at United.

Looked like a bulge in his sock so it could be a compound break. Hopefully it was just his shinguard. Jaysus I'm fierce upset. Gutted for the lad.

Why would you want to watch it again.

Tipsy McSwagger

Damn that's horrible for the chap

RobertKK

Classy PSV crowd.

What a horrible evening it has become.

deaddonkey15

Only caught a glimpse of the tackle, seemed like the PSV lad came in very recklessly and not exactly in full control, was it a fair tackle?

Clumsy tackle :mad:

Disgraceful tackle, completely out of control with it (both feet off the ground), wrong angle to be tackling at, complete desperation stuff.

The shít refs call and yet its ok to clatter someone like that.

Don't be facile.

Fair play to the psv fans

Chagan

Van Gaal's face told the story there. Horrible.

Liam McPoyle

LVG's look after he spoke to the doctor tells how bad it is, poor Luke.

Mars Bar

I don't even want to watch this anymore

**** it anyway

To see if it's as bad as it looked.

To judge for ones self exactly how bad it was?

Rayne Wooney

He's so quick you always worry someone is going to clatter into him when he hits full stride

MD1990

Very unlucky for Shaw. Was playing very well too. It looks terrible but an acl injury would be worse.

bad2dabone

It's obviously impossible to tell how severe it its but consider how strongly Aaron Ramsey has come back from a serious break at a young age I'd hope that Shaw would be able to recover in similar way

Lord TSC

Blind to LB and Rojo centre then?

shane.

Looked similar to the broken leg Anderson Silva had

GavRedKing

Never nice to see at all. Hope Shaw comes back as strong as wver was playing well from last year too.

edgecutter

Awful challenge. The ref should have taken action against moreno. He wrapped his leg around shaw.

Polo_Mint

Pretty sad now watching this game

Excitement gone out of this match for me.

Feels the same when it happened to Alan Smith

Mantis Toboggan

Young is woeful on the right, much better down the left

It's a massive blow to utds season IMO

Breaking up the blind / Smalling partnership as a result and loosing out on one of the best lbs in Europe at the moment

I watched that tackle it should have been carded, pure wreckless coming in at full speed with that sliding tackle

I didn't realise it was that nasty! I usually rewind injuries to try and gauge what they might be.. Not looking to see bones out of socks or anything like that!

shrewdness

Christ just seen a picture of it on twitter, just awful.

Such a shame for Shaw, right when he was in great form and all. Let's hope he comes back just as strong next year but its looking like a lengthy lay off.

Liam McPoyle

One can only hope its a clean break and not a compound fracture or anything.

Seriously deflated.

ician

United just need to make it to half time now and try and regroup

Its a nasty break, here's a link to a NSFW image from a replay angle they didn't show on tv for those interested

It was a really bad tackle so you shouldn't be surprised when you injure somebody with it. Desperate, lunging, from the side and out of control and a player will lose a season of his career, if he is lucky.

Buh he got de ball. Load of bollocks.
