the bench for Manchester United's trip to Aston Villa on Saturday.
Di Maria has not featured since United's 3-0 win over Hull City on
November 29 due to a hamstring injury, but Van Gaal revealed in his
press conference on Friday that the Argentina international has now
resumed full training.
"Of course Angel Di Maria has trained this week with us, so it's
always dependable how I have to compare with other players because
he's not match fit after one week," the Dutchman told reporters.
"So maybe I will select him for the bench or maybe not. I have to make
my decision because we have to train, so one training [session] to
go."
Van Gaal also confirmed that Radamel Falcao is back in the reckoning
for a starting spot against Villa, having last featured from the
beginning in United's 2-1 win over Everton on October 5.
"He has shown fitness," Van Gaal added when asked about Falcao. "Maybe
I shall select him for the bench, maybe for the line-up."
