The Daily Mirror ran a story today which claims that Manchester United defender Luke Shaw was seen out on the town with his mates in the aftermath of the Red Devils' 2-1 defeat to Swansea City in their Premier League opener on Saturday.
Shaw, who was put on a special training programme after Louis van Gaal deemed him to be unfit after returning from the World Cup, didn't even play in the game due to a hamstring injury.
When the story emerged, the 19-year-old was quick to defend himself in justifiable fashion.
@MirrorFootball am I not allowed to go out for dinner ? *

But it didn't wash with one 'famous' City fan. Devastatingly, it's a fake account.
.@LukeShaw3 When you've been humiliated in public by your manager for being clinically obese, the answer is NO, u fat shite.
