They say couples who live together start to turn into each other – well, apparently the same goes for team-mates.

Jesse Lingard wore the exact same outfit as Shaw while on his holiday
The Manchester United duo were left red-faced after sharing pictures of themselves enjoying their summer holidays.
Incredibly, Lingard and Shaw were wearing EXACTLY the same get-up.
The Old Trafford team-mates have both been on the party island of island of Mykonos for their jollies.
And they were both snapped wearing a £300 Amiri T-shirt and identical, pink-and-green, patterned shorts for their Greek getaway.

The gaffe was picked up by a Luke Shaw fan account on Twitter.
The page – LukeShawArmy – shared the pics of both the left-back and Lingard.
They asked their followers: “Who wore it better?”
Unsurprisingly given the source of the poll, Shaw ran out winner.

While dressing the same way as Lingard may have been a mistake, Shaw certainly didn’t make any error when he copied son, Reign London’s style.
Shaw kitted both himself and his lad in a £290 black Burberry T-shirt and £470 shorts in the iconic brand’s famous check pattern.
The Man Utd star and girlfriend Anouska Santos welcomed the tot into the world in November.

DALEY BLIND has reassured fans he is “OK and feeling fine” after collapsing mid-game earlier this week.
With nobody close to him on the pitch, Blind slumped to the ground towards the end of Ajax’s friendly with Hertha Berlin.

The Dutchman, 30, was diagnosed with heart muscle inflammation in December.
Blind suffered a dizzy spell in his side’s Champions League game with Valencia and was taken for tests.
It was then his underlying condition was discovered.
And late on in the 1-0 win over Hertha Berlin, Blind crumpled to the ground as medics rushed to help.

Worried team-mates quickly raced over to the defender – who was seen clutching his chest during the terrifying ordeal.
Blind was eventually able to leave the pitch without any assistance.

Despite fear amongst his fans following his latest scare, Blind has taken to Twitter to reassure his followers.
Blind tweeted: “Many thanks for all the kind messages I received.

“I can say that I’m OK and feeling fine.”
Blind returned to the first-team set-up six months ago after being fitted with an electronic device to monitor his heart.
Doctors fitted him with a device, called a subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator, to help him continue playing.
This is designed to regulate any abnormal heart rhythms, preventing a potential cardiac arrest.
And Ajax boss Erik ten Hag revealed Blind’s ICD went off during the on-pitch ordeal.

What is an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) and how does it work?

An ICD is a device which can be used to treat people who suffer from dangerously abnormal heart rhythms.
The device is placed under your skin to monitor your heart rate with thin wires connecting it to the heart.
It monitors the rhythm of your heart through the electrodes.
If the ICD picks up a dangerous heart rhythm it is able to do three things:
Cardioversion – this is where one or more small electric shocks are used to try and restore the heart to its normal rhythm
Defibrillation – one or more larger electric shocks to help restore normal rhythm
Pacing – low voltage pulses that are delivered to try and correct the rhythm
The British Heart Foundation states that you will need an ICD if you have already had a life threatening abnormal heart rhythm and you are at risk of having it again.
You may also need one if tests show you are at risk of developing an abnormal heart rhythm – or if you have another condition such as heart failure.

After the match, Ten Hag said: “Daley Blind’s ICD went off. 
“He got subbed off straight away and he is feeling OK now, he is feeling fine.
“We will do research about this now.”

MANCHESTER UNITED boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has ordered Bruno Fernandes not to make so many runs – but the midfielder says he “can’t control” his urge.
The Portuguese star, 25, scored 12 goals and laid on eight assists following his January move to Old Trafford.

The former Sporting Lisbon star added a much-needed spark of energy and creativity into the Old Trafford midfield, as the club turned their season on its head.
But Solskjaer has asked Fernandes to rein in his desire to charge around the pitch so as to avoid fatigue – and the the injuries that come with it.
Fernandes told the Man Utd website: “[Solskjaer] says to me a lot of times ‘sometimes you do so many runs and some runs aren’t for you – you need to shout someone else to run, because after you are tired and, when you take the ball, you will not be fresh.’
“But it’s instinct, it’s part of my game. I can’t control this.

“I’m like this and I want to help the team every time.
“In the game, you don’t think, you just run. For me, that’s enough.
“I think the most important thing is to help the team and if you help the team it’s OK.”
Fernandes went on to say he hopes he can continue setting up his new team-mates as well as getting amongst the goals in his first full season at the club.

The ex-Sporting Lisbon star said: “It’s important to be in the goals, whether it’s doing assists or scoring, so, for me, it’s the same.
“Of course, I enjoy assisting my team-mates because playing No10 is the position you have to serve your team-mates.
“Sometimes, I look too much for them when I have the chance to shoot.
“But I try always to serve them, because normally the strikers are there to score.

“For their confidence, scoring is important.
“A No10 doesn’t need to score a lot to be confident. For them, it’s important.
“Since I arrived in Manchester, I try to serve more than score – but I have more goals than assists.”

WAYNE ROONEY has leaped to the defence of Harry Maguire following his Mykonos brawl – insisting the Manchester United captain is “not that type of person”.
Maguire, 27, was found guilty of assault and attempted bribery and handed a 21-month suspended jail sentence earlier this week.

The England defender – who was named and then removed from Gareth Southgate’s latest Three Lions squad – has lodged an appeal, meaning he will be granted a retrial at a “more senior court”.
And Rooney has given his complete backing to Maguire, adamantly saying the ex-Leicester man is “not that type of person”.
Rooney told talkSPORT: “Knowing Harry the way I know him, it’s completely not his character.
“It’s out of character, everything that was reported to have happened.

“I couldn’t get my head around how it went to court.
“He was found guilty and sentenced all within the space of about two hours… how has that happened?
“Harry’s not that type of person at all.
“He was out there with his girlfriend, his family and friends and their girlfriends…

“So it’s not a group of lads, where sometimes things happen.”

Rooney added he believes Maguire must have been provoked to act so “out of character”.
The Derby man continued: “So, in my opinion, something has gone on that has maybe provoked him.
“It’s just out of character, it’s not him at all. I just think as a nation, as people, we are too quick to judge.
“Obviously he was found guilty and there’s an appeal, so at the minute there’s no charges now against his name until the next court date.”
Maguire is expected to keep the Man Utd captaincy after lodging his appeal – but may be forced to wait three years for his retrial.
On Wednesday, pals claimed Maguire and his group – arrested at the weekend – were given a “welcome” by up to eight men armed with batons when they arrived at a police station in Mykonos.
Authorities refused to allow medical evidence gathered by his legal team which detailed bruising he sustained.

Phone footage which showed Maguire’s pals confronting two Albanians who allegedly tried to inject his sister Daisy, 20, with a drug was also not allowed to be submitted.
A source said: “Harry is very disappointed at how things played out in court.
“His team was given two hours to examine a 50-page prosecution file.
“They repeatedly asked for an adjournment but weren’t given one.
“The trial went on until late and it makes everyone think that the authorities were determined to deal with the case, whether it had due process or not.
“Harry is confident that the appeals process will provide him with the opportunity to clear his name.”
Another pal said Maguire was “hellbent on clearing his name”, adding: “He respects the legal process.”
Manchester United also gave their backing to Maguire, saying he’s “innocent until proven guilty”.

On Wednesday, a club spokesperson said: “An appeal against yesterday’s verdict was lodged this morning by Harry’s legal team.
“In accordance with the Greek judicial process, the filing of an appeal extinguishes the initial court verdict and nullifies the conviction.
“The appeal has been accepted and will lead to a full retrial in a more senior court.
“This means that Harry has no criminal record and is once again presumed innocent until proven guilty.”
