Ex-Coventry defender Busst: Shaw can get back to very best for Man Utd

Former Coventry City defender David Busst says Manchester United fullback Luke Shaw can make a full recovery from his broken leg injury.

Busst suffered a horrific leg break against United at Old Trafford in 1996 after colliding with Denis Irwin and Brian McClair and retired from the game a few months later.

He told The Sun: "It wasn't the actual fractures that stopped me from playing, it was the infections.

"But so long as it's a clean break and there is no infection, there shouldn't be a major issue for Luke."
