Hasn't Shaw suffered with depression and some mental issues. I seem to recall something about that. It couldnt have been easy having all that expectation on you followed by that leg break. I don't think Jose is the best manager to help deal with that sort of stuff. I really feel for Shaw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose is ruthless at the best of times. Hes also seems to prefer if a player tries to play injured. The whole "Oh no Im ok boss" thing. Shaw didn't do that earlier in the season, he was honest and said he couldn't play and I think that pissed Mourinho off. Hes still only 21. Lots of time to get it right. I hope he stays.

DavisO89 Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 Love how sky sports are barking on about Englands centre back cover being "thin" after Jones was ruled out. Only got Cahill, Smalling, Keane, Stones and Dier left in the squad. How on earth will we cope? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only got Cahill, Smalling, Keane, Stones and Dier left in the squad. How on earth will we cope? I imagine Dier will be used in centre midfield though - due to the lack of good options there, despite him having not played there since the start of the season. The other 4 will be enough though. Hope Keane gets a go, been impressed with him and Mee at Burnley this season. Ben Gibson looks another CB that could help out in that area in the future - can't see him staying at Boro when they go down. Centre back actually looks to be a postion where we have ample options coming through, just hope some of them push on and get to a higher level than they are now. And what with the emergence of Spurs' full backs with Bertrand and Clyne as alternatives the back 4 is looking stronger than it has for a while. Centre mid is an absolute shitshow though - Henderson is the only player that can really justify a starting role in there. We do have a lot of advanced midfielders though which is an area we have traditionally lacked in. Do maybe getting some of Alli, Barkley and Lallana to fit into the team in deeper than normal role is the challenge. Personally I would like to see Ox be played in there going forward as well, still think thats his best position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King etc they have significantly downgraded. I know last year people were making Smalling to be the next great defender, but in truth he is pretty average.
