United star Shaw wants to progress in style
Manchester United defender Luke Shaw has no concern over a shortage of goals ahead of the trip to Club Brugge.
Luke Shaw is planning to take the frustration of Manchester United's draw with Newcastle United out on Club Brugge in the clubs' UEFA Champions League group stage play-off second leg.
Louis van Gaal's side was unable to make it three Premier League wins out of three at the start of the season as it was held to a goalless draw by the Tyneside outfit at Old Trafford on Sunday (AEST).
Much has been made of United needing a new striker before the transfer window closes, having scored just two goals in its first three top-flight matches.
United did find the back of the net three times against Brugge in the first leg on home soil last week, though, coming from behind to ensure it will take a 3-1 lead to Jan Breydel Stadion.
Memphis Depay scored twice and Marouane Fellaini added a third in stoppage time after Michael Carrick's own goal gave Brugge, which had Brandon Mechele sent off 10 minutes from time, a shock early lead.
Shaw is not concerned by United's lack of goals and the England left-back is confident the favourite can finish off the job in Belgium.
"It wasn't to be [against Newcastle], but we've got a game just around the corner [against Brugge] and I think it’s only good for us," shaw said. "We'll get back up and try to win that game.
"I think it's the best thing for us, when we feel that we’ve dropped two points. It’s very important that there's another game and it's even more important that we try to win it.
"I'm sure we'll start scoring many goals soon. We've got so much quality up front that it’s only a matter of time before someone puts one away and we’ll be flying again."
Brugge also heads into the game on the back of a setback at the weekend, with Zulte-Waregem consigning Michel Preud'homme's men to a 2-0 Belgian Pro League defeat.
After finishing second last season, Brugge has already lost two of its first five games in the league and will have to pull off a major shock to progress to the group stage for the first time in a decade.
Unbeaten in 10 home matches in Europe and with an away goal in the bank, Brugge will be out to deny United a return to the group stage after the English club missed out on Europe altogether last season.
United will again be without Phil Jones (thrombosis), while Brugge is unable to call upon Mechele due to suspension after his dismissal in the first leg and captain Timmy Simons (hamstring).
