Luke Shaw

Shaw had his chance to join club he supported a few years ago but took Utd's cash instead...big mistake and no room for him at the Bridge now.
Ironically it was Mourinho, a Chelsea manager at the time, who criticized him for being motivated by money first.

I've often wondered if it is because Shaw snubbed joining Jose at Chelsea that Mourinho has treated him so harshly at United? 

Nah, Mourinho wouldn't be that petty would he...

 
It's funny if you believe the narrative that we sought to buy Shaw, Stones and Barkley to replace Cole, Terry and Lampard.  

None of the three are anywhere near that level. At the moment Shaw and Barkley just struggle to get on the park. 

I think Shaw still has a lot to give, he's a Chelsea supporter so always willing to provide the benefit of the doubt. We'll see how Emerson progresses.

It's obvious, Shaw is an unfunny raconteur at society soirees chez Mourinho, probably passed the port the wrong way or called it a toilet instead of a lavatory.

OR, he said something salacious and inappropriate about Jose's daughter's choice of eye make-up one time.

Got to be a personal dislike, can't honestly be anything to do with Mourinho's opinion of the lad's attitude, aptitude or ability, can it?

 
He's known to have firm views on what he wants from his players yb. Not alwsyd to do with ability either. Glen Johnson, Scott Parker, de Bruyne and others fell foul of it here. 

Not saying he is wrong on this occassion but once he has a set on you,  you're done. 

 
Mourinho loves to get rid of fantastic talent because they won't play in his 10 at the back formation correctly. If he wants rid we should snatch him up. Will only be a year or two before he's prime A.Cole reincarnate. 

 
Shaw's had the same accusations from about 4 different managers, there must be something wrong there.

Another possible interpretation is that one of the top managers in world football has a very clear idea of how he wants his teams to play and has no room for players who are either unable or unwilling to conform to his vision.  That in either of those ways would apply to those players you named.

 
There's another english lbs I would take over him. However we have alonso and palmieri now. Palmieri was highly rated before his injury, so we need to see how he returns. 

 
Lucky for us we have the best LWB in the world. Oh Marcus Alonso. Luke who!
