Ashley Young has recovered from his injury but won't feature against Man City as he isn't match fit |
MANCHESTER UNITED have no fresh injury concerns ahead of the Manchester derby on Sunday.
Ashley Young picked up a slight injury during the 3-0 defeat to Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.
He was forced him to miss the following matches at Everton and CSKA Moscow, and despite Louis van Gaal revealing the winger is no longer injured, he won’t feature against Man City as he is not match fit.
Ander Herrera looks set to feature even though he received a heavy blow to the ribs during the closing stages of the Champions League draw in Moscow.

The Spaniard scored during the 3-0 win at Goodison Park last weekend and retained his starting place for the trip to Russia.
Luke Shaw, who has been out of action since breaking his leg at PSV Eindhoven in September, and Paddy McNair, who suffered a serious-looking injury while playing in Northern Ireland, remain the only players on the injury list.
Van Gaal told MUTV: "It's pretty good, because only Luke Shaw and Paddy McNair are long-term injuries.
"Ashley Young has had three weeks out of training sessions so cannot play against City.
"It’s always better that a manager can select from a lot of players.
"There have been times when I could not select from many, like last year, but this year is going much better."
