Falcao starts for United at Chelsea

Radamel Falcao has been named in Manchester United’s
starting line-up for today’s Barclays Premier League
showdown with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge (kick-off 17:30
BST).
It’s a first start since February for the Colombian, as Louis van
Gaal makes three changes to the side that beat Manchester
City 4-2 in the derby last weekend.
With Marcos Rojo and Phil Jones sidelined, Paddy McNair
partners Chris Smalling in the centre of defence and there’s a
return for Luke Shaw, who has been out since last month's FA
Cup defeat to Arsenal.
Robin van Persie is named on the bench after missing the last
seven games through injury, but Michael Carrick and Daley
Blind are out and Jonny Evans serves the last game of his six-
match suspension.

United : De Gea, Valencia, Smalling, McNair, Shaw, Mata,
Rooney, Herrera, Young, Fellaini, Falcao. Subs: Valdes,
Blackett, Rafael, Di Maria, Januzaj, Pereira, van Persie.

Chelsea : Courtois, Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Azpilicueta, Zouma,
Matic, Oscar, Fabregas, Hazard, Drogba. Subs: Cech, Filipe
Luis, Mikel, Ramires, Cuadrado, Willian, Solanke.
