Louis van Gaal has claimed that he has taken Robin van Persie off penalty taking duty after he missed a crucial penalty at home against West Brom on Saturday. United went on to lose the game.

The manager has also claimed that Rooney is at the bottom of the pile too after missing a penalty at Anfield a few weeks ago.

No. He is now at the end of the road. It is always. Wayne Rooney has missed also, so when you miss, you are at the bottom again.

Juan Mata? Ander Herrera? Michael Carrick? Who would you have taking our penalties from now on?
