Luke Shaw: I’ve been rinsed before but Chelsea winger Moses my toughest opponent

Luke Shaw has again insisted that Victor Moses is the toughest player he has encountered in his career thus far.

The Manchester United left-back says that Chelsea's Moses, who is enjoying his best-ever form as a wing-back for Antonio Conte, is the most powerful and energetic player he has come across in the early stages of his career.

“I've said this before, and a lot of people rinsed me for it, but Moses was my toughest opponent," he said in a YouTube interview with " target="_blank">Tobiias.

“Just the power and strength he had, so direct and never gave me a second to breathe.

“Obviously I was pretty young and in my first or second season with Southampton, but when I look back it was the toughest game I had."
