Wayne Rooney is fit to play against Southampton

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has confirmed that Wayne Rooney is back from his injury and is fit to face Southampton on Sunday. The manager also confirmed that Phil Jones has returned to training with the rest of the team. This comes as a good new for Manchester United fans after the heartbreaking injury of Luke Shaw in the mid-week clash against PSV Eindhoven.

Wayne is fit to play. He’s only had one week out. It was because we weren’t taking any risks with him. Phil Jones has come back and trained with the group for the first time. He’s not match fit but he’s fit to train. Only Luke Shaw is injured.
