Luke Shaw has been one of Solskjaer’s key players in a Man Utd side that sit second in the Premier League table. Shaw has played at a top level going forward, as we’ve seen in recent performances since the turn of the year against Liverpool, Arsenal, Southampton and Everton where he set some big chances up for Marcus Rashfdord, Bruno Fernandes and Edinson Cavani. In addition to his outstanding attacking contributions - we watched Luke Shaw handle one of the best forwards in world football, Mohamed Salah. When Manchester United faced Liverpool at Anfield in January.
Since the turn of the year Shaw has been, without a doubt, the best full back in the Premier League. Statistically he’s up there with the best creators in the league, let alone defenders.
In fact in 2021, he’s created the fourth most chances, The second most big chances,
Has the highest expected assists And only Jack Grealish has registered more assists than United’s left back. Unsurprisingly he ranks first in all of these metrics amongst defenders.

Since the start of last season, Solskjaer’s system has been all about allowing the front four to combine and whilst the full backs have there to hold the width, they’ve not been expected to create all the chances like Liverpool’s have. But with the increasing output from United’s attackers, opposition have tended to defend narrower which has opened up space out wide for the full backs to take advantage of.

Take Man United’s opener in the 9-0 win over Southampton. Lindelof in possession for United. He looks for a long diagonal over the top for Rashford who collects near the corner flag. Rashford turns but goes back to Shaw who takes one touch and picks out Wan-Bissaka who’s on the move at the back post. This was a really good goal from United and it really shows what Solskjaer is trying to do at Old Trafford. First the direct ball from Lindelof looks to capitalise on the pace of the forwards but it doesn’t quite come off. Then as Rashford collects he’s quickly doubled up on by Djenepo tracking back which opens up massive space for the supporting Shaw. Then as the ball goes back to the left back, United have loaded the box with three forwards plus Wan-Bissaka’s attacking run which gives Shaw plenty of options. But he picks the correct one and United take the lead.
