Shaw: Talking About My Team-mates

Manchester United defender Luke Shaw may be missing the FA Cup final but he shared insightful and sometimes humorous views on the squad in an exclusive interview for the official match programme.

We've published a selection of his comments - to get his full verdict on every player, pick up the Cup final programme at Wembley or purchase a copy online at themagazineshop.com...

Luke Shaw on....

David De Gea: "He's probably the greatest person in the dressing room, and one of the nicest as well. He's always asking how you are and giving you a hug."

Matteo Darmian: "He's absolutely 100 per cent focused on every little thing he does, on and off the pitch, probably even about the way he eats his lunch!"

Phil Jones: "He has the worst dance moves I've ever seen. When he tries dancing in the gym, it's just horrendous. He is quite funny though."

Marcos Rojo: "What I like most about Marcos is how passionate he is for United. You can tell after every game how much the result means to him."

Chris Smalling: "We give him stick for his voice, because you wouldn't expect it to come from him, but he's a great guy."

Daley Blind: "I tell Daley every morning that his dress sense is horrendous: big leather jacket, baggy jeans and so on."

Cameron Borthwick-Jackson: "I can't let him get away with the way he runs. He's like a human dinosaur! Maybe he can work on his technique in pre-season."

Antonio Valencia: "The guy is a machine. Big, powerful, athletic."

Tim Fosu-Mensah: "He wants to tackle everyone, run everywhere - in fact, the other day, he told us all he woke up at 2am and he just went out for a run!"

Michael Carrick: "Carras is like the father figure in the team now. He tends to give advice and look out for people because he's a caring guy."

Morgan Schneiderlin: "You can never get him out of the gym. He loves it in there."

Marouane Fellaini: "You don't want to go anywhere near Felli on the training pitch because he trains like the way he plays!"

Ashley Young: "The joker of the team and probably one of the funniest guys I've ever met. We're good friends away from football too, even though he took my position at one point!"

Ander Herrera: "I think Ander's the joker out of the Spanish lads. He'll dance around in his pants to the Spanish music and he just makes everyone laugh. I reckon he'll be a funny one to watch in the celebrations if we win the trophy."

Memphis: "We bonded quickly after he joined and we've missed playing together since my injury."

Juan Mata: "Probably the nicest footballer I've met. He's funny too."

Jesse Lingard: "He loves his music and is always dancing and messing around in the changing room. We need fun sometimes and he brings that."

Wayne Rooney: "As a captain, he's excellent. When things aren't going well, you don't want to get a telling-off from him, I can tell you!"

Adnan Januzaj: "He's such a good player. I truly believe he can become one of the best in the world if he fulfils his potential."

Anthony Martial: "What Anthony can do with a ball is scary and everyone knows it. He does everything the fans want to see."

Marcus Rashford: "He's been unbelievable; always one of our best players."
