Luke Shaw back on his feet

Not really. Very little soft tissue damage and will have been treated textbookly. RICE

Just glad it wasn't his ankle or he'd be out for ages..

If it swelled up too bad he'd never got his pants on.

The whole team has gone to shit tbh.

i see that sage ex-ref pierluigi collina reckons the tackle that injured shaw should've been punished.

"On the field, nobody reacted because what was perceived, even by players on the field of play, was that the ball was played.

"This is the thought of many: if the ball is played, it is not even a foul.

"We need to make people, even the football community, aware that if you want to protect the safety of the player, even challenges on the ball but risking in terms of endangering safety of an opponent can be punished, should be punished.

"Football is not everything, safety comes more than the football itself."

nothing really to be gained from raking this up again but i'm going to anyway - was surprised at the lack of consensus on this when it happened tbh.

I had a red cast when I did mine.
