Which is fine but if we don't make top four this year then what was the point in getting him? He goes back to Monaco and we sold a good young player for no reason. Or we decide to do the permanent deal and we have three aging players on big money while we try and get to the CL. It's a big risk I think.

Absolutely brilliant first interview. He said "we" in his first interview! He seems so genuinely happy and positive to be here it was quite disarming actually. And such good English!
He's got a real confidence about him hasn't he? Immediately talking about titles (plural) while holding eye contact. I like it a lot.
Watching the interview it really started dawning on me that we've signed Falcao... Falcao. I mean, what the f**k?
In Falcao we're getting the best striker in the world at his peak for 4 years if we make him permanent.
If we make it back into the CL this season our revenue for 15/16 will likely be over £500m, we're getting to a point where we can afford to buy a £50m player who is ageing, if he gives us 3 good years, fantastic! Then we can just replace him.
I want to see the pics of him, Di Maria and Mata walking out of a local restaurant.
He is a year younger than rooney, not really an ideal replacement.
Fixed.
Love that interview, he is smiling non stop, looks so happy and seems to be all round incredibly polite and nice.
I love how the 'experts', who don't seem to know Rojo played centre back for Sporting and Blind played holding midfielder at Ajax, say we've not signed what we need. They said the same thing when we signed Van Persie. Guess Falcao is gonna fire us to the title then..?
How come he speaks english good?
Bastard. Hot wife. Stratospheric salary. Super-skilled. Looks like a great guy to boot.
What am I missing here? Small penis?
What a great guy, his English surprises me.
Biggest smile right now.Welcome. Get us those goals, now.
Lol
Felt like we freed him from Monaco. The whole transfer saga to Monaco was shady to say the least and I doubt he even wanted to be there.
lovely interview. seems like a well mannered and polite guy. was a beast at porto and at atletico he was arguably the best no.9 in the world, one of the best if not the best for sure.
hope he can get us back into the CL at the very least. if we can get it going quick enough i would not rule us challenging for the tittle.

Glorious signing. I remember when he was out injured for th WC, I watched a video of his injury and then I ended it spending an hour or so watching all of his goals, simply because of the nature and quality of those goals.
"Born to score". Never before has a tag become more suited to a player. We have signed up a hell of a player.
I can not wait until our next match. feck, Radamel Falcao. I never thought we'd see him on our colours once he left Porto for Atletico.
Gaalacticos are up and running
Falcao, Di Maria, Blind, Herrera, Rojo, Shaw. A fantastic window. Once everyone is playing, we'll be rocking.

Genuine two-footed striker caps off a brilliant transfer window. Well done Woody.
Right let's go and show the rest who are the bosses!

That gif is hilarious. Wenger's face when Woody got Falcao
Very excited, seems very well mannered. Just watched some of his goals and he scores such a wide variety. Hopefully once we get a full squad fit we can supply him with chances.
One thing I did find funny in his interview was when he (innocently im sure) said "I admire.......some of the players"

He's a world class striker and comes with a certain degree of guarantee. There's no doubt in my mind now that we'll stroll into the top four.
He's said to be very pious
He is world class no doubt. But I would not be so sure about his success here, yet. Remember Shevechenko and Chelsea?
This season, God is with Falcao, and the Red Devils
Straight swap for hernandez then!
Haven't the rumours been that he has been holding out for Real Madrid all summer?
Hmm, wish I shared your confidence. Have you seen us play?
We could have had Pele up front in the last few matches and it wouldn't have made any difference.
I am delighted. We need this type of player so much. This type of aggressive south american players (Tevez, Edmundo) often go very well in the PL compared to the more technically gifted primadonnas.
This transfer also brings back memories of Marcelo Salas - a guy I always dreamt of having in my team. So about 15 years later on we finally get our own version of the animal.

We will improve, there's too much quality [both management and players] in our team for us not to improve.
I know, but this player is different. He comes with a certain hunger that is lacking in both of our top strikers.
If that means what I think it means, he'll get along great with Ando.
You're judging a team that's new to an entire philosophy of football.
Plus in the games we've played we've had 5 first team players injured/unavailable.
In comparison to the other teams who are pretty much playing at full capability and playing philosophies that they've become accustomed to.
I think we're a lot closer than people are giving us credit for.
Awesome!!
Legend! Just like this guyI am delighted. We need this type of player so much. This type of aggressive south american players (Tevez, Edmundo) often go very well in the PL compared to the more technically gifted primadonnas.

I've learnt over the last year not too take anything for granted. Names (of players, managers, and even football clubs) count for nothing, I'll wait and judge on what i see on the pitch.
or Anderson might just eat him.Yes, Chile had a world class attack back in those days. Their mentality was also unreal - with Salas being just as happy with assisting as with scoring.Legend! Just like this guy
