Luke Shaw admits it will be a dream come true to step out at Old Trafford as a Manchester United player for the first time when Louis van Gaal’s side face Valencia in their final pre-season friendly on Tuesday. The occasion also marks Van Gaal’s first home game in charge before United host Swansea in their Premier League opener next weekend, and Shaw is under no illusion that the deposed champions need to put a disastrous season behind them and get back to winning trophies under the Dutchman. The England defender, signed from Southampton for £27million this summer, said: ‘As a kid, it’s a dream to play at Old Trafford. It’s one of the biggest arenas in the world, you would say.
