Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal says Rooney will face a scan on Wednesday to ascertain damage done to his knee. The 29-year-old, who missed his side's 2-1 home win against Stoke on Tuesday, picked up the injury on Saturday's Hull victory. Gaal added there's 'more light in the tunnel' for United's injury list, with the club having more injured players since Van Gaal's takeover from David Moyes. First-choice players have been ruled out of matches at different stages of the season. Three United stars, Angel Di Maria, Luke Shaw and Daley Blind, missed the Stoke win. Van Gaal further doubts the possibility of Rooney appearing in the game against Southampton on Monday.

Hull City Manager chides Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen following Spurs' 2-1 win

Following Spurs' 2-1 win over Hull City, City manager Steve Bruce lashed out at Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen for exaggerating to get Hull City's Ramirez Gaston red-carded. Bruce castigated such act as unhealthy for the Premier League. The Uruguayan midfielder Ramirez got the red card for kicking at Belgian Jan Vertonghen. Bruce argued his man only showed "petulance" when he was provoked by Jan. And such behaviour could not be regarded as "violent". The City went down when Tottenham's Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen found the net in the game's second half. Speaking with his news conference, Bruce said, "Ramirez has shown petulance. Vertonghen has had a little go at him, and Ramirez has flicked out. The law says it is a violent conduct. For me, it is an act of petulance -- it is not violent conduct." Via espn
