As pressure builds on Louis van Gaal, former Manchester United striker Dwight Yorke criticized him for dropping Wayne Rooney.
Louis van Gaal was wrong to drop captain Wayne Rooney for the Boxing Day defeat to Stoke City, according to former Manchester United striker Dwight Yorke.
Rooney was named on the bench for the Saturday's 2-0 loss at the Britannia Stadium - the United skipper coming on at halftime after Bojan Krkic and Marko Arnautovic had scored the only goals of the game.
The England captain has been criticized for his form this term but Yorke was critical of Van Gaal's decision as the Dutchman's future looks increasingly uncertain after a fourth-straight defeat.
