LVG still unsure on Man Utd striker Martial

Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal is still unsure about striker Anthony Martial's availability for the crucial Premier League encounter against West Ham United on Tuesday night.

The 20-year-old Frenchman injured himself in the warm-up ahead of the 1-0 win over Norwich City on the weekend and van Gaal is unsure if he will be fit for the trip to Upton Park.

The Dutch manager said: "We have to wait if his muscle is still tight as I don't take any risks as he is a very important player.

"We don't want a rupture. That is very important for us."
