Luke Shaw suffers double fracture on right leg, to — Manchester United News
Shaw had an operation on the leg at the St Anna Ziekenhuis hospital on the outskirts of Eindhoven on the night of the match and stayed there until he was given the all clear to return to Manchester on Saturday.
To tackle this situation, Van Gaal is reportedly considering to acquire the services of Leeds United youngster, who has continuously impressed the Old Trafford manager throughout the summer. After that, he may be able to play but it also depends on how his rehabilitation develops.
United executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward visited Shaw the morning after the match and the player’s parents are understood to be with him now. You can always tell by the players’ reactions – they are the best judges as they are near the tackle.
He added: “I don’t think I would have found it frustrating in this United side“.
“You can understand that after the big injury”. He was lying on the pitch, he was in a lot of pain and then I thought something was wrong, that something really bad had happened.
It will be interesting to see how Manchester United pick themselves up from the PSV defeat and setup in their next European fixture, which at this moment looks like a must win. I was sick after the action.
“My speaking about the subject gives him spirit”.
Cocu said the incident had weighed heavily on Mexico global Moreno, who suffered a broken leg at last year’s World Cup in Brazil.
‘His family is there – we have sent people with him and he will come back when he is prepared. “I just hope he will be back as soon as possible”.
Shaw was subsequently stretchered off with an oxygen mask and taken to hospital before United confirmed the 20-year-old had undergone surgery on his injury and would remain in hospital in Eindhoven to continue his recovery. “‘I love the physical side of the game“.
“Can he play like last season without many playing minutes?”
Wayne Rooney, Michael Carrick, Memphis Depay and David de Gea – among others – rallied round Shaw with messages of support via social media. Obviously he can fulfil that role and score his goals but it would be a good combination if Martial was up front and Rooney was just off him. “We wish him a quick recovery”.
The England global is facing a long road to recover but his manager is amazed by his positive attitude to the injury.
“It’s something you may not actually be influenced by at that time“, the United defender said.
“To be honest, all sorts will be flying through your head”.
