Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho was delighted with the performances of full-back pair Luke Shaw and debutant Diogo Dalot in the Champions League against Young Boys on Wednesday night, with the future at Old Trafford suddenly that bit brighter.
Shaw turned 23 years of age during the summer, while 19-year-old Dalot will remain a teenager for another six months. Mourinho specifically commented that the latter has the potential to be a United player for the next 10 years.
While Manchester City spent £100m to buy starting full-backs Kyle Walker and Benjamin Mendy last summer, United have paid around half of that for Shaw (£30m) and Dalot (£19m).
