Luke Shaw knows Alex Telles will be on his heels to get into the Manchester United line-up but the left-back appears to be hitting good form at the right time.

The England international gets back quickly to make a blistering recovery tackle on Willian.
Willian joined Arsenal in the summer after spending seven years at Chelsea. His pace has always been a threat when we’ve played against him, so Shaw deserves credit for going that extra mile to win back the ball.
