Asked to explain how Rojo, Jones and Blind got injured, van Gaal said: "They are all from the game against Manchester City. Blind has played on because he always wants to play on, but the tackle from [Vincent] Kompany was of course the reason. "Jones, I took him off the pitch already because he injured himself in the second half. Rojo, he was complaining after the match, and Carrick was also off. So it's not surprising for me, but we had a big hope that Blind and Jones could reach this game but they could not."
