“Big credit to Ole” – Man United star reveals the secret behind his recent upturn in form | OneFootball

Manchester United star Luke Shaw credits Solskjaer and Alex Telles for his improved form

Luke Shaw has been Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s go-to option at left-back for the big games.

The Englishman was once again chosen to start against Liverpool at Anfield. He was a part of a rigid United backline that kept Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool side at bay all night.

Shaw’s efforts saw him win the ‘Man of the Match’ award on the night. It was nothing short of the reward his performance on the night deserved.

According to MUTV (h/t Manchester United), Shaw believes two people deserve credit for his recent upturn in form. He has gone on to name manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and summer signing Alex Telles as those responsible.

Shaw has risen well to the challenge posed by Telles’ signing. He believes both players push each other to get better, in turn bringing out better performances.

Telles is a more attacking option in comparison to Shaw. The presence of these diverse traits offers Solskjaer multiple options.

Competitors but also partners in arms, the relationship between Telles and Shaw is testament to the team Solskjaer has built. The fact that they can go up against each other without animosity will hold us in good stead.

Despite holding Liverpool at bay, United did precious little to attack a side that had no specialist centre-backs on the field. These are the games we should be looking to win as title contenders.

While we stay top, there is still a long way to go before the Premier League title is decided.
