M. Carrick will not step onto the field this season

At a press conference, "Manchester United" head coach Louis van Gaal confirmed that Michael Carrick's injury is more serious than originally thought and the defender will not appear on the field for the rest of the season.

The 34-year-old footballer got injured at the end of the match against "Manchester City" and had to miss the next three "Premier League" games, during which "Man Utd" club lost all three matches without him.

"We tried everything, but now we have to think about the next season," said van Gaal. "He will not play in this one, so it's better to focus on the next and be healthy for the start of the next season.

The coach also confirmed that Luke Shaw is ready to play against "Crystal Palace," Jonny Evans and Marcos Rojo may appear on the bench, and James Wilson has been attacked by a virus."
