United’s late win means only they and Chelsea have won their first three Premier League matches, with the Red Devils second on goal difference.
Shaw played a full part in the dramatic 1-0 win, which he claims is proof that his side are slowly getting back to the United of old when battling to the very end was a famous trait under the great Sir Alex Ferguson.
“So I think it’s very good for him to be on the pitch for 90 minutes for the U21 squad”.
“In the two matches when we have needed a victor, against Leicester and today, he has done the job”, Mourinho told journalists.
“We’re hoping a lot of football clubs will be accepting bids, but in the meantime we need to tie them up”, Phelan said.
“He’s different than (Wayne) Rooney, he’s different than Zlatan (Ibrahimovic), so everybody is happy with him and we’re happy with the squad”.
Fellaini’s actions assured no injury was inflicted on the woman wearing a bright pink hoodie, however the same can not be said of other United supporters who celebrated wildly at Rashford’s goal, with at least one fan hospitalized following a leg break during the frenzy.
Arsenal also broke into the win column with a 3-1 victory at Watford.
The 18-year-old striker was left out of the Three Lions squad for this weekend’s opening 2018 World Cup qualifier against Slovakia after gaining selection in the Euro2016 roster earlier this summer.
“Him and [Henrikh] Mkhitaryan were the bright spark in the second half that changed the game for Man Utd”, said the Manchester United legend.
Jose Mourinho has reveled in Manchester United’s “Fergie Time” win over Hull City at the KCOM Stadium on Saturday. It didn’t look good with the amount of chances that the team was missing and Shaw admits he wasn’t always confident that they would win the game.
“We deserved it and in a more comfortable way”.
“He gives new problems to the opposition so I am really happy with him and the team”.
“We know matches like that can help us win championships”.
“I saw the way Fellaini and the two central defenders controlled everything long, high and short”, Mourinho told a post-match news conference.

And Mourinho added: “They can play together because they did it already”.
