Luke Shaw was substituted during the closing moments of Manchester United’s match against Brentford due to an injury. Sky Sports’ live commentary indicated that the full-back ‘has an issue,’ prompting manager Michael Carrick to adjust the defense.

Leny Yoro stepped in to replace Shaw, who spent a few minutes on the ground receiving treatment before being taken off the pitch.

It appears Carrick made a precautionary move, as he had previously substituted Shaw during the first half of a match against Crystal Palace earlier this season. Shaw was able to play in the following match after that incident.

Gary Neville remarked during the commentary that Shaw is currently enjoying his ‘most consistent’ performance for United, having played in every Premier League match this season. With only four matches remaining, he is eager to maintain this achievement until the final game against Brighton and Hove Albion.

However, there are ongoing concerns about Shaw’s fitness among club officials, particularly with the added intensity expected next season as Manchester United enters the Champions League.

The upcoming fixtures will pose a challenge for the squad, especially after a year in which they recorded their lowest number of games since 1915. Following this match, United’s focus will turn to Sunday, when they host rivals Liverpool at M16, aiming to secure a league double for the first time in a decade.
