Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag hailed the performance of Luke Shaw for victory over Nottingham Forest.
Ten Hag employed the fullback at centre-half for the 3-0 win.
He said, “It looked like Luke has played there all his life at centre-half. He did a fantastic job, so it is good to know that we have options there, and that is also what you need for the whole squad – have players who can play in more positions. He was really composed, really decisive there and determined to play that position. It was a really good performance."
Ten Hag also praised Raphael Varane for his playing return.
He added: "Rapha, I think, he shows once again his great personality, the great standards he is giving Manchester United by coming from the World Cup. We had a problem in the centre-half position and he is taking responsibility to play and he performed really well. He was, once again, very important for our team."
