I think shaw was close to losing leg and was actually told he was going to lose it at ole point.
He was never ever the same again consistently.id say he could have been a great play if it wasn’t for the leg snap.
Himself and depay had struck up a good partnership too if memory serves me right.

Brings back a vague memory of a player whos leg was shattered while playing for Coventry.He was basically sandwiched.
Absolutely horrific.
I think they were playing United,maybe?

Never the same player after. He was moving like fucking Bale that few weeks leading in.

Dave Busst I think. They had to mop the blood up off of the pitch before they restarted

Noel Whelan never broke his leg thank God
Djibril Cisse nearly lost his leg too only for very quick acting medical staff

There’s very little fear of any of those Manyoo’s losing a leg in battle. If any of them suffer a clatter my advice to them is massage the limb vigorously with their wallets.
The fat wallet massage is the perfect panacea for imaginary career threatening injuries.
Schmeichel had to have counselling. There was a programme a few years back about wags and his wife was on it, had gone back to college to try and get a degree. Seemed an absolutely lovely lady.

Madrid look razor sharp without Vini. The balance is way better.
