Shaw feels that the result is even more disappointing because the Red Devils were “so on top” in the first half but made “silly” mistakes that cost them the game.
He told MUTV:
“You look at the first half and I think we were outstanding.
“We had a lot of chances to put the game to bed. Of the chances we had, [we should have scored] maybe one or two, then for me, it would have been ‘game over’.
“We spoke at half-time and Jose said they hadn’t had one corner, one cross or one dangerous opportunity. Then, from their first corner in the second half they had a goal [from Harry Kane], but even then we should have been relaxed because it was only one goal and we still had a lot of time.
“But then came another mistake, another silly, stupid goal. We were so on top and it is just really disappointing, everyone in the dressing room is really sad, especially after the first half we had.”
The 23-year-old has however not lost hope. He believes that Manchester United will return to their winning ways soon especially if they play the way they played against Tottenham in the first half.
He added: “It is a sad night for us, we have got to pick ourselves back up, keep working hard and we need to pick up points after two losses.
“We need to win and win in a good way. We played really well in the first half and if we keep playing like that, and take our chances, then we will win games.
“You see a lot of things in the media that go on about what our dressing room is like, but we have a really good spirit, a really good group of lads who want to work and achieve big things here.
“We have a group of hard workers and amazing talents, everywhere you look on the field. We have got to start taking our chances and I am sure we will start winning games.”
It happens…The season is just beginning, United has plenty of opportunity to make amends. Good luck
