Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has revealed that he has injury problems for the Crystal Palace match with Memphis Depay, Antonio Valencia and James Wilson also out of the trip to London.

Depay and Wilson were both injured in the Middlesbrough game while Valencia hurt his foot in the Manchester derby last weekend.

"Willo was injured but also Memphis Depay was injured," Van Gaal told MUTV on Friday. "It was a very bad game afterwards because we lost on penalties and also we lost two players. We have to wait and see [how long they are unavailable for] because it was only two days ago."

The defender Paddy McNair is still recovering from a injury that he sustained while playing for Northern Ireland in the recent international break. Left-back Luke Shaw is still a long-term absentee with the double fracture of the leg that he sustained in the Champions League defeat at PSV Eindhoven.
