Luke Shaw has been incredible for the past 18 months and this summer for England he has been the best left-back at the European Championships.
We argued towards the end of the season that Shaw was the best left-back in the Premier League — before Jose Mourinho told talkSPORT that he’d start Ben Chilwell instead because the Chelsea full-back is seemingly better on the ball.
Hmm. About that, Jose?
Against the Ukraine, Shaw registered assists for Harry Kane and Harry Maguire and he now has 3 for the tournament, so with every goal contribution we’ve started to see comparisons made to Brazil and Real Madrid legend Roberto Carlos.
It looks like it’s a running joke in the England dressing room, with Declan Rice and Kane in the video below:
