Manchester United injury news: Wayne Rooney 'fit', but concerns remain
A look at those who could be absent for the trip to Everton
Manchester United begin a tricky run of fixtures following the international break with a game at Goodison Park against Everton.
With crucial Champions League games against CSKA Moscow, a Manchester derby and an away game against Crystal Palace on the horizon, Louis vsn Gaal will be desperate to get some points on the board and keep in touch with the pace setters.
