BBC Radio Manchester's Gaz Drinkwater believes it might be time for Manchester United to offload two of their players, not for a lack of talent, but as a result of the amount of time they spend injured.
Speaking on the latest episode of The Devils' Advocate podcast, presenter Joe McGrath mentioned Luke Shaw was back training on the grass. But Drinkwater was quick to cast doubt about whether the defender will be playing again soon.
"He won't be available - it's a non-start conversation," said Drinkwater. "He should go in the summer - I am not having a go at Luke Shaw, he can't help being injured.
"Phil Jones, if he was fit and available for much more of his career he would have been a fantastic defender. Often maligned despite the fact he would put his body on the line and he was a fantastic cultured defender - he would have been amazing.
"Luke Shaw is the best left-back in the Premier League, but injuries are getting in the way. He's one of the players I'd look at and think he needs to go in the summer just because of the injuries.
"And another name that I'm going to throw in that hat and I hate to say it because I love him and think he's brilliant - Lisandro Martinez.
"If you're injured all the time, at some point you've got to say, 'we can't be having this'.
"It's a shame because I love both of those players."
