Mourinho consoles Shaw at the final whistle

One of the few bright spots of United's defeat to Tottenham was the performance of left back, Luke Shaw. Shaw, who impressed against Leicester and Brighton, once again proved his worth in the starting XI with a dynamic attacking and assured defensive display.

Shaw stood out for special praise from Mourinho who immediately made a beeline for him at the end of the match, consoling him and congratulating him on his individual performance.

After a turbulent two years under Mourinho's stewardship, Shaw finally appears to have won his manager round.
