Di Maria, De Gea to take place in Man Utd line-up for Arsenal trip

Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal insists Angel Di Maria and David De Gea will be fit for the weekend's trip to Arsenal.

Star winger Di Maria sustained a foot injury in Argentina's friendly loss to Portugal at Old Trafford on Tuesday night while goalkeeper De Gea injured his finger while training with Spain late last week.

But van Gaal says the duo will be right to take their respective spots in his line-up for Saturday's Premier League meeting with the Gunners at the Emirates Stadium.

"Di Maria has trained today normally so I don't think there is a question mark, De Gea is good - no problem," said the Dutch tactician.
