We're not signing Falcao lads, our name is just being used to drive up the price. We already have enough issues fitting two #9s into our lineup and are about to lose a couple promising young ones.
This is exactly what we should've been thinking, but we haven't if anything. It's why we're now suffering from a majorly imbalanced squad (Van Gaal's words).. Tis why we've ended up with Rooney, Van Persie, 2 other strikers, Mata and Kagawa in one squad with seemingly no way of playing a team that actually works together.Falcao walks backwards in to the side of Edin Dzeko. City are approaching this with the big club mentality which is "how can we be even better" rather than the "but if we sign him where does so and so play" that we've seemed to adopt in recent years.
Which is why it seems possible all of a sudden, but yes still looks very unlikely right now.We're not signing Falcao lads, our name is just being used to drive up the price. We already have enough issues fitting two #9s into our lineup and are about to lose a couple promising young ones.
He's following Januzaj? Shit just got real.Tweet

If they give him decent minutes that would be a great move. They play some nice football and have a large contingent of former United lads.Tweet

This would be good.

Only he isn't good enough (yet) to be the main man when Van Persie inevitably gets injured for a month.I don't mind losing Welbeck+Hernandez this window, but we can't give Welbeck to Spurs or Arsenal. Just fecking stupid.
Wilson third striker will be great.
Neither are Hernandez or Welbeck if we're honest.Only he isn't good enough (yet) to be the main man when Van Persie inevitably gets injured for a month.
City cant afford him unless its a loan with option to buy next year bollocks, arsenal wont spend 50m on a 28 year old striker, i reckon we would do it just to shit on city. i dont put that past us considering rvp is probably gunna be out till january with a knee op.Tweet

I don't think United would spend £50m just to annoy City. Hopefully we wouldn't lower ourselves to their standards.City cant afford him unless its a loan with option to buy next year bollocks, arsenal wont spend 50m on a 28 year old striker, i reckon we would do it just to shit on city. i dont put that past us considering rvp is probably gunna be out till january with a knee op.

Don't worry, it's definitely not Fergie's idea.Hmm It makes no sense at all. Even we play 4-3-3, how do you even fit 3 high profile strikers in a team? That's just too much for any team. Rooney-RvP partnership is terrible, adding 1 more striker won't solve our problems. Please tell me this isn't Fergie's idea...
Has to be bullshit...maybe RVP is done for the year or something, but seems like if this is true, and that is a big if, probably means Van Gaal is going to maintain some sort of two striker system, maybe 3-5-2, maybe some sort of diamond formation, 4-4-2
50 million pounds and highest paid player in England too ?Tweet

Could be. Fergie liked strikers because he was one.Hmm It makes no sense at all. Even we play 4-3-3, how do you even fit 3 high profile strikers in a team? That's just too much for any team. Rooney-RvP partnership is terrible, adding 1 more striker won't solve our problems. Please tell me this isn't Fergie's idea...
That's the same as his friend originally posted. That would mean he would be getting more than the £300k a week Rooney is on. Firstly that is fecking obscene! Secondly, surely along with our other signings, our wage bill will now be absolutely out of hand. Thirdly, it makes no sense unless the RvP rumours are true. Even then, why wasn't the money spent on a midfielder/defender or both?50 million pounds and highest paid player in England too ?
With our injury record and both Chica+Welbeck leaving (maybe) - i am sure we could get good playing time for our strikersHmm It makes no sense at all.

Or is crocked.This will only happen if RvP gets sold.
Sadly, the way he played at times at the WC and in his last two appearances for us, he looks like he's either in pain or he's holding back for some reasonOr is crocked.

It's not looking good but really hoping it's not something career ending because at the moment it would seem the only logical reason for getting Falcao.Sadly, the way he played at times at the WC and in his last two appearances for us, he looks like he's either in pain or he's holding back for some reason
Maybe not career ending as he was never one to rely on his pace or strength (More positioning and his reading of openings ahead of him)It's not looking good but really hoping it's not something career ending because at the moment it would seem the only logical reason for getting Falcao.
ThanksHe used to be on the ban list in the older thread but he's not in this one.
Laugh good or laugh bad?if we sign falcao!
