Mourinho lays the blame at Shaw's door

Many factors have been labelled as the culprit for Manchester United's shock run of losses but coach Jose Mourinho has suggested that Luke Shaw is one man responsible.
The left-back has returned to the team after missing most of last season with a broken leg and initially impressed, only to be part of a Red Devils side falling to a 3-1 loss at Watford on Sunday.
"There are similarities between the first goal for Manchester City and the second that we conceded to Watford," explained the Portuguese tactician. "[City wing-back Aleksandar] Kolarov comes forward and my players do not pressure him, creating a difficult situation for winning the ball.
"When Watford make it 2-1, [Nordin] Amrabat has the ball and is 25 yards from goal, and even then our left-back [Shaw] doesn't pressure him, he should not wait."
Still just 21, the England international moved to Old Trafford from Southampton for around 40 million euros in 2014.
