Ruben Amorim has admitted that Luke Shaw wants more game time following substitute appearances in his first three games as Manchester United boss.
Shaw, who had been sidelined for 10 months before Amorim's arrival, made his comeback against Ipswich Town and has since come off the bench in wins against Bodo/Glimt and Everton.
The 29-year-old defender is now keen to secure his first starting role since suffering his long-term injury on February 18.
