Shaw finally returns to United starting XI
Luke Shaw made his first league start for four months as Manchester United took on Bournemouth in Saturday’s early kick-off.

With Henrikh Mkhitaryan out injured, captain Wayne Rooney started in the hole behind Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe was expected to miss the match due to illness but made it in time.
Manchester United team: De Gea, Valencia, Jones, Rojo, Shaw, Carrick, Pogba, Mata, Rooney, Martial, Ibrahimovic.
Bournemouth team: Boruc, Smith, Cook, Mings, Daniels, Surman, Arter, Fraser, Pugh, King, Afobe.
