Joshua Zirkzee was pleasantly surprised by Luke Shaw's fitness, but his teammate 'popping off' made him go 'wow'
"Luke had so many injuries last season. I didn't play with him or see him day in and day out. I knew he was good, but then you see him every day [this season], and you realise that all the "Shawberto" stuff is true! Yeah, so I would say Luke [has surprised me this season]."
Joshua Zirkzee has been impressed by two Manchester United teammates this season despite limited playing time himself. Luke Shaw has transformed from an injury-plagued 2024/25 campaign with only seven league appearances into the club's most durable player, earning Zirkzee's admiration. Additionally, Zirkzee expressed surprise at how seamlessly Patrick Dorgu has adapted to a new positional role. Despite his reduced minutes on the pitch, Zirkzee maintains a professional demeanor as a positive dressing room presence, consistently supporting teammates regardless of his own situation.
