Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has indicated that striker Radamel Falcao is fit enough to feature in the starting lineup against Aston Villa.
Falcao, who is on loan from Monaco, has started just three times since moving to Old Trafford during the summer transfer window, but Van Gaal has hinted that he is considering including the Colombian forward at Villa Park.
The Dutchman told reporters: "He shows fitness in the training sessions, so maybe I shall select him for the bench, or maybe I shall select him for the lineup. Wait and see."
Earlier this week, Falcao revealed that he is keen to sign a permanent deal with the club.
