Rooney Critiques Shaw After Man Utd's Loss to Hull City
Following Manchester United's 2-0 defeat to Hull City in their opening Premier League match on Saturday at the MKM Stadium, club legend Wayne Rooney criticized defender Luke Shaw for his performance. Rooney specifically pointed out Shaw's defending on Hull's second goal, where Shaw dropped back, playing Hull's entire attacking line onside.
Rooney described this as "schoolboy defending," stating, "Man United had a good line. Hull would have been waiting for this all day.
Luke Shaw drops in; he’s five yards behind his back line, and if the ball is good enough, which it was, it’s impossible to stop." The loss marked a disappointing start for Manchester United in the new season, and they are set to face Ipswich Town next weekend at Old Trafford.
