No way Martial leaves. Also don't think Shaw will, it's the same scenario as Mick and Smalling.

And Memphis and Schnderlin. Mkhi seemed to put the head down and prove himself. martial, in fairness, looks to be doing the same.

But there is two examples of players going "nah, **** this" and heading on their way....

I was reading yesterday about Jose doing tough love on some players, one was Martial who responded, not working on Shaw.
Bastian has done far more to get game time by the look of things, given he was totally out in the cold at the start of the season.

Jose Mourinho could be forced to put rookie stopper Dean Henderson on bench against Blackburn in FA Cup after knock to David de Gea
Jose Mourinho may be forced to put rookie goalkeeper Dean Henderson on the Manchester United bench for Sunday’s FA Cup fifth round tie at Blackburn Rovers.

The Whitehaven-born teenager, whose only senior first-team experience is seven games on loan at Grimsby Town, has been put on standby for the match at Ewood Park because of an injury to David de Gea.

Although the Spaniard's knock isn’t believed to be serious, Mourinho is unwilling to take any risks with him ahead of next Sunday’s League Cup final against Southampton at Wembley.

S.M.B.

Shaws contract situation isn't going to help matters in the summer.

Why not have romiero and periera in the lineup then? I don't get why an injury to de gea would make us resort to Henderson who is fourth choice??

Open to correction
Did Perieira not go on loan and we recalled Henderson

Both were on loan respectively, then recalled.

Henderson was recalled due to an injury suffered by Pereira.

Jose

It's from the Mirror, but they're direct quotes from Jose about Shaw. Starts off with Jose being asked if he will sell Luke Shaw this Summer...

Jose wrote:

"No, no, no. He will be here for sure, that is out of the question."

“What I think is that he had a very ugly injury, really, really ugly and the fact is not just the physical point of view but also the mental impact on him."

“So this season he has had a couple of small injuries and he needs to adapt."

“He knows what I like in a defender."

“He knows that I like stability, that I don’t like mistakes, that for me it is vital to trust a player totally and he has to work to get it."

“And when he is on the pitch again he has to try to give me that step-by-step because he is still only a young player.”

Mourinho added: “Sometimes people forget he is only a young player with a lot to learn but I like the player and I like the boy.”

Hopefully he's just in the Mkhitaryan Chamber. It seems to have worked for Mkhi, Martial and Schweinsteiger so far.

"No no no, he will be here for sure. That is out of the question."

Well that's definitive. Shaw wont be sold. Who's next to be sold? Daley Blind hasn't had it in a while.

I think there's a huge 'spin the wheel' in the daily fail office where they have numbers replaced with Utd player names

Ouch that's unlucky for him in terms of match day experience he was making decent progress.

Lads this is not on topic at all but I'm honestly nearly pissing myself laughing at the hashtag on twitter #NeverRemember.

Its a hashtag to honour the horrible tragedy which happened in Sweden the other night. There's not many facts known about what happened, in fact the only source is Donald Trump, but apparently something happened because Donald told us it did. No one in Sweden knows anything about it but it happened.

As a balding man, it's great to see a fellow-balder in Dimitar retaining his head of hair. I hope it wasn't a transplant. Even if it was, it gives me hope.

Hi lads the mate has tickets for the game against Chelsea fixed for Saturday 15th April at 15.00. He is trying to organise flights, would any have any idea when will the day and time of the kick off be confirmed. I'm fairly sure it will be changed for TV. Thank you.

Does Rooney go to a backstreet hair restoration clinic? His hair looks like the welcome mat outside my front door.

Nice looking frontline. Plenty of pace there.

Flint Fredstone

Is Rooney injured?

Liam O

Decent team. Is it too much to ask for Darmian to be RB and Young LB though?

2 games in a row no DeGea, he must be on his way out

Shaw on the bench!

While Jose is claiming that Shaw isn't going anywhere in the summer he either has to turn things around dramatically in the next 3 months or get used to the fact that he can only make the bench in a second string side.

Hopefully he'll respond well.

GSPfan

Has anyone broke there leg in similar fashion to Shaw? I wonder is it a mental thing with him moreso than a physical?

I broke my cheek bone in 3 places and it took me a couple of years and a couple of bangs in the face to get confident about it being heeled so I wonder is it a thing for him?

Part of me thinks the kid is way too good to alienate and let leave at a big loss...but there are plenty of cautionary tales out there.

Fingers crossed he reacts to this like he did to the injury and fights hard to overcome the adversity.

As an aside, it's kinda sad how far Blackburn have fallen. I know they got where they did because of Jack Walker's money but it was a well put together sid when they were in their pomp.

Doesn't seem to bother Valencia.
