Manchester United name Luke Shaw 2018-19 Player of the Year | OneFootball

On Thursday night, Manchester United held their annual awards dinner and it’s no surprise who took home the top honour of the night.

Thanks in large part to a trio of Player of the Month awards, Luke Shaw was named Manchester United’s Player of the Year.

In addition, his team-mates were in agreement as he took home the Player’s Player of the Year award as well.

“It’s obviously nice for me,” Shaw told MUTV. “But I’d rather win no trophies and have a better season as a team. It’s nice but we need to move on and focus on next season and what’s to come.

“I think for me personally it’s probably been my best season since I’ve been here. I would have rather it had been a better season for the team but it wasn’t meant to be.

“Thank you to the fans for voting for this. And from me and the team we want to, not apologise, but we know it’s been a bad season.

“I look at the players in this team – we have amazing players, I know we will come back stronger. I’m very positive about next year, we all are as a team.”

Luke Shaw featured in 40 matches in all competitions this season, scoring a goal and contributing five assists to the cause.
