The huge fee and wages for one season, he was always going to be an investment, sold on eventually.
Their 'project' is more or less over. His fees must be huge, and they're cutting their losses.
We're nuts. I love it 
Well that escalated quickly .....
We can definitely still afford it. It's a loan deal because of his injury issues, most likely, and as you said, maybe he doesn't want to commit either.
And they'll probably still finish above us. It's madness!Liverpool get Lambert as striker backup, We get Falcao.
Not your mistake mate. Its ridiculous the number of times this summer, the Brit media has converted euros to pounds by just switching the symbol
Money well spent.
Twitter is on fire that this is a done deal, but I haven't seen anything reported from a regular news source.
Incredible deal true. RvP just isn't right and needs whatever he needs to get right.

Typical French so. Always surrendering before you even begin.
They must be really struggling with FFP is all I can think of. £15 million loan fee or thereabouts, and his wages off the books.
Another 24 hours deal.
he's Russian!WTF has just happened.
WOW
WOW
What a guy.Tweet

Renting him for the year makes a lot of sense. He has a lot to prove coming back from injury as well.
We're loaning Falcao?! Duck me sideways, I thought this was a joke and they'd mistaken City for United.Whats wrong with this club
For a season, reportedly. I'd assume there is a buy option clause in there too.
This as more than made up for last Summers window.
They sold James for big, big money. I doubt FFP is a concern.
yeah me tooWe're nuts. I love it
I dont think he is worried about the CL he has managed to make sure he avoids it for the past 4 seasons.
I stand by what I said.
That also means we will continue with 3-5-2. With Rooney, van Persie and Falcao you have to play with 2 strikers.
Maybe a diamond in midfield, weird
De Gea
Rafael-Jones-Rojo-Shaw
Blind
Herrera-Di Maria
Mata
Falcao-Rooney
A complete new team.

Erm, ok then, seems a bit random. Guess RvP's injury must be bad and LvG's expecting him our for a season or something, in which case this makes sense. But then it also worries me that he's intending on using 2 strikers still, so that means the 5-3-2 is here to stay for the season?
SSN just quoted a loan fee of £20-£25m. That's very expensive to rent a player.
He is growing on me.....inside my pantaloons
SSN just said there might be a fee of 20-25m Euros attached to that … surely that's if we want to take him outright at the end of the season??? It can't be €37m for one season loan surely!
BBC quoted half of that.
Love him already! Now to go and search some youtube comps.
Great signing.
Wow, now we are talking. Hopefully get all our players back after international break. Drop RvP to the bench. Falcao in, Qpr could be in trouble!
I just hope LvG reverts to 433 and plays Jones/Smalling and Rojo with Rafael and Shaw at full back.

Of course you would, you
Nah can't be bothered, this transfer deadline day is too exciting!
Wait, does anyone think, and I've not put the pieces together, that Madrid is kind of behind this.
So, we loan Falcao now. Madrid feel that they don't need him this season so have brought in Hernandez as a back-up. They 'let' us have him for the season, see how he recovers, and then they'll bid for him next summer, at a somewhat lower fee.

Falcao! I hope this means no more donkey touch Rooney up front. I love how reliable Balague has become!
Someone in Manchester please make sure he gets in the right car, I fear Shitty will be having a cameo van waiting to kidnap him when he lands.
This is key I think.
£20-25 million for a loan??? surely thats a deposit for a permanent move?
