You forgot the arrows in front of Shaw and Rafael to make you look a tactical geniusWe are all in agreement that this is our best formation, right?
But yeah that is it for me, surely?

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?

Called flop in half a season, playing in front of 8k people. Well done you French cnuts.
Nice try at WUMming by the way. Posting nonsense from some Jon Le Gossip.
Cracking chant that!
ACL
Have a wash then.
I love Falcao, he's a really classy player on the pitch and he seems like a really classy person off the pitch. He's really polite in his twitter.
I remember him crying when leaving Atletico, saying how much he loved his time there. And boy, was he loved, despite just being there two seasons. Clearly he didn't want to go to Monaco.

You need to apply for a scouting job at UTDJust wanted to come and post this 7 years later with a sense of smugness

Did anyone see him play this season? How good he was?
His tweets have been posted all summer in the twitter thread.Called flop in half a season, playing in front of 8k people. Well done you French cnuts.

Ok i started to worry how good he was in pre-season after cameback because ACL injury is pretty serious. Doesn't Vidic had that and he was never the same after that. Wiki helped on that:
Not worried anymore
Transfer twitter thread being the key words...
Now I"m just awaiting confirmation from the megastore that we've sold 14 million Falcao 9 shirts since the window closed, making his transfer essentially free.
Just out of interest, why do we let Liverpool fans post wums in here?
Do you think they rate Balotelli higher than Falcao? A couple of my pool mates are gutted we got him, they kept banging on to me they were getting him as a Suarez replacement...

If he wasn't a devout Christian.

Time to see some falcao clips. I remember little of him, mostly him scoring goals with ridiculous ease for atletico and pissing on the Europa league.
Silly you! You're assuming the money goes to us. It doesn't! It goes straight to Madrid!
I am not saying that we needed Falcao.
But people have to realize that we do have players like Di Maria, Mata, Rooney who can bring in dynamism and creativity. Our football is a little flat these days, but that is because of a lot of reasons, it's not that we do not have the players who are capable of playing good football. We have the players, the system has to start working.
Anyway, we don't need Falcao to do all of this for us. He is not here to be our Messi or Ronaldo, he is here to be our RvN. Possibly RvN was better with the holdup play.
The way we are playing currently underplays the abilities of our players.
A front four(of sorts) of Falcao/RvP Di-Maria Rooney and Mata is a very good one. It has all the elements of attack. With the right CMs(even decent ones) and Full Backs(who can cross and who are natural and comfortable in that position), this can be a lethal strike force personnel wise. It is up to LvG to make them work. Given time, it should be easiest job in the world to make these players play decently and score some goals. If LvG does his job well we could manage to come up with a title challenge. I just hope LvG is not over-complicating and over doing this philosophy and rebuild thing.
Kindly note that when I mentioned CMs and Full Backs, I am talking about decent ones who are natural in those positions. We have those players, at least decent ones.
RvP/Falcao Rooney Di-Maria Mata Herrera Blind/Carrick Shaw Rojo Jones Rafael DDG is a much better line up than what we had last year.
LvG has to get us to top 4 with this squad, it will be a big failure on his part if he does not.

Just a quick look at him since his return from injury.
"Falcao's full recovery was confirmed in mid July, where he would play regularly in pre-season matches for Monaco after 6 months sidelined. He returned on the field at theEmirates Cup coming on as a substitute for Dimitar Berbatov in the 72nd minute as Monaco drew 2–2 against Valencia. The next day he played the first hour of the match against Arsenal, and scored the only goal of the game in the 36th minute."
Wiki.
We need this! Complete change to the same old English chants!
How does one go about getting a chant used in OT anyway? Share the idea in a United pub before hand or on the Away train?
What are your opinions on him? You've probably seen more of him than most.
I saw him at Porto every game, from then on I probably saw as much as anyone else here...

What on earth has that got to do with anything?

He's a devout Christian too.
Everyone knows devout Christians are 22% more likely to score with any shot.
Surprised it isn't implemented as a stat in FM.
Hopefully it is just a loan deal so if he under performs we can walk away.
That's us fecked then.
lol, he hasn't underperformed at any club he's been at (River Plate, Porto, Athletico, Monaco (Injured for 6 Months) ) so I doubt he will under perform at United. He is ours for the next 4/5 years hopefully.
I've seen criticisms of him not doing much outside of the box which is probably true. However, he has good touch and strength to hold the ball up and he's lethal in goal scoring positions which is fine with me. We've got plenty of players who are good outside the area in the buildup.
This could be special if he's recovered from his injury.
Stupid international break, the next game can't come soon enough!

With players like di Maria, Rooney, Mata and Januzaj I'm not sure we need him to do much for us outside the box!
i watched his interview...i thought he would sound more macho, his voice resembled something entirely different. 
it's my birthday btw
Precisely!
Its not your moment Jim! Don't try and hog all the attention. Its Falcao's day!it's my birthday btw
Make him our main striker and make everybody around work for opportunities for him to score. That is the right way forward.
If that's his first game back then he'll be just fine.
