Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has spoken of his relationship with Luke Shaw after the defender penned a new contract this week.
Mourinho revealed Shaw's personal drive convinced him about the left-back's change of attitude.
He said, "He was not selected, I criticised him in training and he was telling me, 'In this moment I'm not the player you want but I want to play for you, I want to play for Manchester United' and he kept saying this all the time. So I always believed. It wasn't someone else telling me, it was him being strong enough to say that.
"I was getting lots of signs and clicks and when last season ended and he told me, 'Boss, I want a fitness coach to come with me for the holidays.' I thought, 'Wow, this is a big click.' And this season he's played every match apart from two.
"The kid was very focused on his objectives and he got what he fought for. He really fought for it. He got a new contract that keeps him here for many years."
