Squawka Football ‏@Squawka 4m
Radamel Falcao has reportedly signed for Man United for €65m. Blimey. That kicks off #transferdeadlineday in style.

Guardian is reporting its a loan.

Hey @FALCAO Have just realised you're not following me! How are you going to know if you've arrived if you can't see me deny it?




Btw, I'm seeing

Falcao has cost Manchester United £12m for the year's loan, and will be paid £200,000-a-week. (Daily Mail)

Transfer Centre ‏@CentreTransfer 18s
Altogether that means that Falcao will cost Manchester United £20million, just for one season.


:x

Still... Questions remain... defense and if Falcao can stay healthy. Not really sure how bad his last injury was.

Blind, Shaw & Rojo will be interesting.

I don't even know how I feel right now.

I guess I should be excited, but I just don't know... Lol.

United: RVP, Rooney, Falcao, Wellbeck
City: Aguero, Dezko, Negrado, Jovetic.
Liverpool: Sturridge, Balotelli, Lambert
Chelsea: Costa, Drogba, Remy, Schurrle.





Us: Giroud, Sonogo.

It actually makes a lot of sense.

United don't want to commit a long term deal on RVP, and seems like they see him recovering/injured for majority of season.

Chicha gone.
Welbeck en route out.

Who does that leave? Rooney and a kid from the academy. If Rooney gets injured we'll look like Arsenal with Sanogo out front.

It's an expensive loan, but United's revenues more than make up for the shortfall until next summer when another striker becomes available.


Could with the league like this

That's an obscene amount... 

 

 

[truth-serum]

So is every other third world country. What's your point

Colombia is a country full of corruption

 

[heggsy]

The fact that Falcao is going to United in any sense is surely exciting enough for even the most pessimistic United fan.

We're in for Nick Powell, I'm excited about that, let's put things into perspective here

Yeah I honestly dont understand this decision at all.

24m on RVP, reup to keep Rooney (in the tune of 300k p/w), 37m on Mata, 67m on Di Maria, and now 20m to loan Falcao...all in 2 years.

Tons of money on a attack when other areas seemly needed retooling first. Woodword is lightweight pulling a Florentino Perez with these galacticos-esque signings (in terms of money outlay, thier star power and their seemingly overkill)

That figure includes his wages for the year.

 

[Sinner]

^ Yes, I just hope it pays off!

This whole time, we've been looking at Di Maria, Rojo, Blind, etc... all with the team now and are good additions.  

This Falcao deal really came outta nowhere (to me anyway)... such a shock to the system....

I was a big fan of Powell, he was a beast at Crewe, but from what I'm hearing, apparently his worth ethic has been problematic at United. I was really hoping he'd turn into something special, but looks like he's suffering from Zaha-ism right now.

I'm willing to get wages are the problem of making the deal permanent.

 

[Beans]

@mikekeeganbbc: Loan fee for Falcao is around £6m, not £12m. (via @sistoney67) #mufc

Option to buy too. Can't be mad at that

 

[Beans]

Yeah seems everyone is quoting that 6mil fee. That's a good but of business, and with no UCL. Guess this means the rvp surgery rumors are true

 

[truth-serum]

Evans and Jones need to go like chicha. Both been buns since they signed for united. United should have been shopping for better defenders during the off season after the vets left

Signing falcao on a year long loan for that price is a sign of desperation

Only thing I like is that it gives united first dibs at buying him if he does well this season. So this is pretty much like united saying come and audition and if we like what we see, we'll splash the cash

 

[eiddyfouw]

Evra - Shaw
Cleverley - Herrera
Anderson - Blind
Rio - Rojo
Nani - Di Maria
Hernandez - Falcao
Vidic- ?
Giggs- ?

The topic was them and I wanted to get my post off. Problem?

Shout out to their cocaine export tho

I'm going to lay into Arsenal and that pathetic excuse of a manager they have tomorrow, but I can't now...
