Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal says Radamel Falcao is out of the derby at Manchester City.
Wayne Rooney has been passed fit for the Manchester derby, but Falcao remains out through injury.
Van Gaal said: "Rooney was not injured. The media was writing that but he was never injured.
"Maybe his shoes were too tight, that is possible. But he was never injured and he shall play. He is my captain."
The news regarding Colombia striker Falcao was not so good, however.
"Falcao is still injured," Van Gaal added.
