Manchester United can't catch a break.
Already without a host of injured players, particularly in defense, the Red Devils lost another important piece of their backline in the opening half of Saturday's match against Arsenal.
17’ – Substitution. Bad news for the Reds as Shaw fails to recover from his ankle injury. He is replaced by Ashley Young. #mufclive

Shaw picked up the injury earlier in the half, and after playing on for roughly five minutes, unfortunately came to the realization that he could no longer continue.
Louis van Gaal has become a master at reshuffling his team this season.
With Shaw off Man Utd have now finished just five of 12 PL games with the same back 4 or back 5 that they started with this season.
