The pair last started together when Manchester United played West Ham at Old Trafford on February 4, a game that was marred by Martinez picking up another injury. Both Martinez and Shaw missed large parts of last season and their respective absences at different periods were undoubtedly a factor in the team's spectacular regression. The new season is a clean slate and Martinez and Shaw must stay fit. They are two of Ten Hag's favourite players and their campaign should start at Wembley on Saturday when United take on Manchester City in the Community Shield. It’s been disappointing for me, but I want to do everything I can, first and foremost, for United.
