Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer lauded Luke Shaw, labelling the full-back absolutely incredible after his performance in the derby win over Manchester City.
Shaw scored as United upstaged runaway Premier League leaders City 2-0 at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday.
Bruno Fernandes converted a penalty after just 101 seconds before Shaw doubled the lead five minutes into the second half away to City, who had their 21-match winning streak snapped and a run of 28 games unbeaten across all competitions.
Solskjaer hailed Shaw – who joined from Southampton in 2014 – following his impressive display as the England international continues to impress at Old Trafford after his rocky start to life in Manchester.
Absolutely incredible, Solskjaer said of Shaw. He was a massive doubt until after the warm-up. He needed to do the warm-up to be cleared to play. So Alex [Telles] was ready but Luke s performance [was] top.
He s aggressive, he s hard to play one against one. When he goes forward on those on runs he s unstoppable.
He s just improved so much and he s improving all the time and delighted for him.
