Manchester United boss Louis Van Gaal has ordered Luke Shaw to train alone because he is not fit enough to perform at the level he requires.<\/p>\n

England left-back Shaw, a summer signing from Southampton, returned late to club training after spending the summer with Roy Hodgson’s squad at the World Cup in Brazil.<\/p>\n

Shaw trained on his own at FedEx Field in Washington on Monday as Van Gaal oversaw preparations for the friendly clash with Inter Milan on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

His England team-mates\u00a0Wayne Rooney, Danny Welbeck and Phil Jones all trained with the rest of the squad.<\/p>\n

“I am always a trainer who sees the individuals and what each player needs,” Van Gaal said.<\/p>\n

“Luke needs to be fit and he\u2019s not very fit and can\u2019t perform how I want. He needs to be fit and to train individually.<\/p>\n

“I can\u2019t judge why. I see what I see. I have spoken with him and we have made a programme with him.<\/p>\n

“He has agreed. We will have to see how long it takes. I don\u2019t know. I have heard good messages from Tony Strudwick the fitness coach.”<\/p>\n

Van Gaal also confirmed he will give Wilfried Zaha the chance to impress as a striker against Inter, where he will be the last member of United’s squad to get a run-out.<\/p>\n

The Dutchman has told the England Under-21 international he will have to focus on playing more centrally as he does not fit in elsewhere in his proposed 3-5-2 formation.<\/p>\n

Van Gaal added: “He will have to play as a striker as he can\u2019t play the other positions in the system.<\/p>\n

“Ashley Young can play as a wing-back. Zaha cannot do that so he will be a striker.<\/p>\n

“I have spoken with him and I think he can do it. We will see. \u00a0He will play the second 45 minutes of this game and will play as a striker.”<\/p>\n
