Jose Mourinho wants more from Luke Shaw (Photo: Action Images via Reuters)
Shaw has missed the last three games following a groin injury and will sit out Wednesday night's trip to Crystal Palace.
Mourinho said: "He needs to improve. That is normal, he is a kid. I am not expecting a young player to be perfect.
“A young player makes mistakes, a young players has things to learn, has things to develop. He needs to do that.”
Mourinho was critical of Shaw at Watford earlier in the season when he was at fault for the Reds conceding at Vicarage Road.
The Old Trafford boss also lambasted him when he pulled out of the Swansea match with an injury problem with Mourinho effectively questioning his bravery along with Chris Smalling.
But Mourinho denies he's not a Shaw fan.
“How many matches has he already played for me? A lot. He was injured playing, not on the bench! I need him back,” he added.
