Man United manager Louis Van Gaal has provided the latest injury update from Old Trafford ahead of the much-anticipated FA Cup final clash against Crystal Palace. This fixture holds LVG’s only hope of finishing the season with silverware. The pressure continues to mount on the Dutch tactician to quit following a disappointing season for the Red Devils, most notably failing to qualify for next season’s Champions League action.
In a bid to regain the trust of Man Utd faithful, the former Bayern Munich boss delivered a heart-warming speech at Old Trafford on Tuesday after the hosts had cruised past minnows Bournemouth, but still failed to qualify for the season’s UCL action. The speech was received by a couple of jeers from the stands, but the 64-year-old is hoping to keep his promise of delivering the FA Cup to the fans on Saturday.
Now, the Red Devils have confirmed that a number of their players will be available for selection. Marcos Rojo (below) and Matteo Darmian are both fit for the Saturday clash.
Boss on team news: "There are many players [available]. Fellaini is not suspended, Darmian and Rojo are not injured anymore." #WeAreUnited

Darmian (below) picked up an ankle injury against Norwich City, while Rojo was injured in training.
The duo could start behind as twin full-backs, hence paving way for Antonio Valencia and Cameron Borthwick-Jackson to start at the right and left backs respectively.
