Luke Shaw has sparked a controversy after his activity on the internet. The Manchester United left back liked a post about Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford. Moreover, both of these players were on the bench most of the time in United’s 2-1 win over Chelsea. Luke Shaw played the first half in his usual position and the other half as a partner centre back to Harry Maguire. Scott Mctominay scored a brace to get all the 3 points for the Red Devils. Manager Erik Ten Hag made some changes in the team after their last matchday’s defeat to Newcastle United. Rashford was on the bench and Antony came in his place. Rasmus Hojlund also replaced Anthony Martial. Furthermore, young star Alexander Garnacho made his 8th consecutive start in the league.
According to expressuk, there was a post from a fan account on Twitter after the match. The post quoted Man United legend Patrice Evra who was there on Old Trafford as a pundit. Evra said that it would be difficult for both Rashford and Martial to get back into the starting 11. Now this is where the controversy starts. Luke Shaw liked that post. After this, speculations started coming in about relationship between the players in the squad.
Luke Shaw has made it clear that it was a mistake from his side.
The England international has made clear that he liked the post by mistake. He even unliked the post immediately. Moreover, he has made it clear that the reaction wasn’t intentional. And it seems that the defender is being honest here because he rarely gets active on Twitter. His last activity was on September when he sent a love heart emoji to David De Gea when the Spaniard announced his departure from the club. Let’s hope the relationship between the players in the squad is not affected by this incident.
