Luke Shaw is still Manchester United’s weak link in defence, says Paul Parker.
And he believes it will be difficult for the 24-year-old left-back to change – as he’s a one-trick pony.
“I felt really sorry for Shaw under Jose Mourinho. He didn’t deserve what Jose gave him. Mourinho should have been helping him especially after suffering such a horrific broken leg.
“But I don’t think Shaw’s helped himself, either. He should have been on the best diet and fitness regime in the world to prove himself but he’s not.
“He’s just not kicked on in the way I’d have hoped. He’s a throwback defender from my era and when he goes forward there’s not enough variety to his game.
“He doesn’t do anything different. He can’t beat people, he hasn’t got a trick with the ball at his feet.
“It’s a push and run or a ball in behind for him to run on to.
“I understand what Mourinho was saying the other day against Chelsea in that Maguire will have problems covering for Shaw who sometimes goes missing.”
