Man Utd fullback Shaw: Chelsea clash big one for family

Manchester United fullback Luke Shaw admits facing Chelsea today is a big game for his family.

Shaw spent much of his childhood on the terraces at Stamford Bridge, and he actually had a trial at the west London club as a youngster, but he was rejected after being deemed too short.

"Playing against Chelsea is a big thing in my family and among my friends because I was born around that area of London," Shaw told Inside United.

"I used to watch them when I was younger."
