Ramadel Falcao fit to play for only 20 minutes: says Louis Van Gaal



Manchester United striker Radamel Falcao is only fit to play for 20 minutes, declares boss Louis Van Gaal. The Colombian who'd just returned to the squad after a calf injury is pressed to play for his team owing to more injuries in the squad. Van Gaal expressed his disinterest in the striker's satisfaction with the substitute role, claiming he only needs match fitness. Gaal however confirmed that captain Wayne Rooney, who was sidelined in the 2-1 win against Stoke on Tuesday, would feature in Monday's night match against Southampton, while Falcao takes the bench. 28-year-old Falcao who missed most of last season's match due to injury has scored only one goal in seven appearances for Manchester United.
