Former assistant Rene Meulensteen is of the belief that Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal does not rate Luke Shaw.
The 19-year old left-back joined the Red Devils from Southampton for £27million in the summer transfer window but is yet to make his debut because of a hamstring injury sustained in pre-season.
Shaw could very well make his United debut in this weekend's clash with West Ham United but Sir Alex Ferguson's former no.2 suggests that he is not one of van Gaal's favourites as evidenced by the signing of Marcos Rojo after the arrival of the young Englishman.
"Yes. It's a big surprise for me," the Dutchman told talkSPORT.
"He would have been informed by the club that they were putting this bid in for Shaw because he's an up and coming player.
"He's got a good left foot and a lot of pace. He's got a lot to learn to get to a Man United level though.
"He's a great prospect but he's brought Rojo in, which is bad news for Shaw."
