Manchester United were 'horrendous' in defeat, admits Shaw

Luke Shaw has described Manchester United’s defeat at West Ham United as “honestly horrendous” and “awful”, conceding the team performed like it didn’t deserve to play for the club in a result that piled more pressure on manager Jose Mourinho.


The defender’s frank assessment comes as Paul Pogba – the last to leave the United dressing room at the London Stadium after the game – declined to speak to reporters. When asked whether he wanted to stop and talk, the midfielder smiled, laughed and said: “You want me dead?”

Pogba’s previous post-match remarks, when he questioned United’s conservative tactics after the draw at home to Wolverhampton Wanderers the previous weekend, have caused friction with Mourinho, who also stripped him of the vice-captaincy during the week.


Pogba, who appears determined to leave United as soon as possible, was poor against West Ham and was substituted after 70 minutes.


The 3-1 defeat condemned United to their joint-worst start after seven league games since 1989 – with just 10 points and a negative goal difference.
