WAY BACK SHAW HARD

-

in the second half of Wednesday’s 4-1 Carabao Cup win over Burton.

The left-back was criticised last season for what Mourinho saw as a lack of focus and slipped down the pecking order.

He has repeated that warning, telling Shaw to step up his efforts to have any chance of returning to the starting line-up.

“He has to work,” said Mourinho. “Just that. You saw the game. Are you asking if he is playing tomorrow? No, he isn’t.

“He has to work, to improve. Luke had surgery and didn’t play for six months. I’m not expecting him to arrive on Wednesday and be man of the match or run up and down for 45 minutes.

“I can’t expect him to be back and strong, strong, strong.”
