What They're Saying
Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal (via The Guardian): "Luke Shaw is a big talent. He's very young, so it's not so easy for him to come from Southampton to as big a club as Manchester United. I think that it shall be the season of Luke Shaw, that I believe. I believe in him and he has to feel that and I hope he shall show it. But he's 20 years old. How many players of that age are playing in the Premier League?"
PSG manager Laurent Blanc (via ESPN FC): "The matter [with Angel Di Maria] is close to being finished. I'm rather positive about it, but in transfers, we have seen what can happen. So as long as it's not official. When I tell you that, it's the truth. The most important thing is to see him in the PSG squad. But as you know, he belongs to a great club called Manchester United. Be patient!"
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Shaw made just 16 league appearances last season, finishing with an average of 1.4 tackles and 3.5 clearances.
Manchester United's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): De Gea; Shaw, Blind, Jones, Darmian; Schneiderlin, Carrick; Young, Mata, Depay; Rooney
PSG's Projected Lineup (4-3-3): Trapp; Maxwell, Luiz, Aurier, Wiel; Matuidi, Stambouli, Verratti; Moura, Ibrahimovic, Augustin
