Man Utd fullback Shaw: What I told Pogba at final whistle

Manchester United fullback Luke Shaw was satisfied with their 1-1 draw at Tottenham.'

Shaw completed the full 90 minutes and later revealed he thought the Reds had the edge on the hosts in terms of conditioning.

“We never give up and we kept going," he told manutd.com.

"We felt fit, we felt stronger than them and we felt like they were struggling at times. We kept going and got the penalty.

“I feel great. The break came at a difficult time as we were flying, but everyone's worked really hard and kept in great shape over the period we had off. We've come back flying.

“We need to push on from here. The [unbeaten] run keeps going but we need to take away the draws and get the wins instead because that's the most important thing."

Shaw was also pleased with the performance of Paul Pogba, who came off the bench in the 63rd minute and made a significant impact, which included being felled for the spot-kick.

He added: "I told him afterwards how much of a difference he made.

“He didn't play for that long but obviously it's great to have him and Rashy [Marcus Rashford] back in the side.

“They are very important players and maybe we can see Paul from the start on Wednesday."
