Injury pile: Marcos Rojo ruled out for Villa trip
20.12.2014 LISTEN

United will travel to Villa on Saturday looking to extend their winning streak in the Premier League to seven matches but they will have to do without Argentinian defender Rojo, who is sidelined with a thigh injury.

While Rojo will miss his second straight match, another defender - Rafael - could be recalled.

"Rafael is not injured," Van Gaal said.
"He was already fit last week, but I have to select and I have to compare.

"When I have more players fit, I have to select. You will have to wait and see, of course. I have to compare.

"Rafael? I can take him in the 18. Rojo? No. We have five injuries and one [Marouane Fellaini] is ill, so they are not coming up. Rojo has a rectus femoris [thigh] injury."
