Manchester United must make do without Wayne Rooney against Arsenal on Sunday as the captain misses out with a dead leg.
Captain
Wayne Rooney is unavailable for Manchester United's Premier League
encounter against Arsenal, manager Louis van Gaal has confirmed.
The
striker sustained a dead leg in last weekend's 2-1 victory at Crystal
Palace and was replaced by Radamel Falcao at halftime at Selhurst Park.
Rooney
has failed to recover in time to face Arsene Wenger's men at Old
Trafford, in a match that could have ramifications for third place in
the Premier League, with Van Gaal also confirming to United's official
website fullback Luke Shaw is unavailable.
However, Robin van
Persie has recovered from a virus that saw him miss the visit to Palace
and is in line to face his former club, while Angel di Maria and Marcos
Rojo are also available.
