Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea admits Luke Shaw is evolving into a serious offensive weapon.

Shaw was absent from the starting lineup as the Red Devils lost to Sheffield United in midweek.

But he was back in the lineup against Arsenal for their 0-0 draw on Saturday.

Shaw did create several chances for his teammates from the left back position.

"He's a big weapon for us," the Spanish goalkeeper told MUTV.

"I think the last few games he's played he's been playing really well.

"He's a very important player for us and when he's fit and playing at 100 per cent I think he makes this team better."
