​Rooney and Shaw out of Man Utd Europa League clash

Wayne Rooney and Luke Shaw have been omitted from Manchester United's squad for Thursday's Europa League last-16 first leg tie against FK Rostov in Russia.

Rooney and Shaw started Saturday's 1-1 draw with Bournemouth at Old Trafford but both were taken off in the 70th minute as United searched in vain for a winning goal.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan returns to United's squad after sitting out the game at the weekend and the EFL Cup final victory over Southampton with a hamstring injury.
