Louis van Gaal DENIES Marouane Fellaini SPAT at Sergio Aguero during Manchester derby
LOUIS VAN GAAL has denied Marouane Fellaini spat at Sergio Aguero during this afternoon's Manchester derby.
Fellaini was incensed after Aguero went to ground inside the penalty area and returned to the stricken Argentinian to make his feelings known.
Pictures emerged on social media that suggested the Belgian had spat at Aguero in the course of that incident.
But Van Gaal doesn't believe that is the case and says Fellaini is not that sort of player.
He said: "I have heard that there is a question on social media.
"When you shout sometimes a little bit of saliva is with it.
"I don't think he is a spitting figure."
