Collymore says Shaw should quit United this summer.

After the draw with Swansea, Mourinho said: “I think Luke Shaw's must be a big injury, because to leave the pitch after nine minutes, I am ­expecting a very big injury."

As a result, Collymore is concerned for Shaw and believes the youngster needs support from those around him.

“The worst thing you can do is question a player's ­professionalism - and ­Mourinho has essentially called Shaw a liar," Collymore wrote in his column for the Mirror.

“He would never do the same to Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

“As a former professional, I am worried for Shaw.

“Some fans might turn around and say, 'These players are ­cosseted and Mourinho is just saying it how it is', but there is something more sinister here. This has been going on for months.

“Mourinho's constant, public barracking of this young man is going to do nothing at all to ­help him.

“The manager needs to take a step back, Shaw needs to get some really good advice, whether that is from his agent or the PFA."
