Jose Mourinho handed Luke Shaw a shock start in Manchester United's Champions League clash with CSKA Moscow on Tuesday night , and as you can imagine it was big news on social media.

The left-back's first United start in 219 days, and only third appearance of the season following two EFL Cup outings, came about following a change of tact from Mourinho, who has been consistently harsh in his handling of Shaw in the past.

But fans were mostly delighted to see a reprieve for Shaw, who has suffered untimely injury problems throughout his United career.
