Surely not after his form over the past year?In a big game, if both were fit, at least you know that Evans has performed on the highest stage. I consider him our best and most experienced cb.

How so? Pro players will always be happy to play with better players.Have we unsettled the squad even further?
With his name and number on it?Just proudly bought my first ever Manchester United jersey.
Aw, what a nice guy, smiling all the time and says 'we' already.Don't think this has been posted yet. Here's Falcao's full first interview
Edit: Nope sorry, was posted earlier.
They got a little pea from a much bigger market than Colombia.Since we've already got him anyway, question is, why not Real ? They've needed a striker, I'd say he's better than Benzema, it looked like a done dealio to them. Surely it's not FFP that stopped RM so what's up ?
Yeah he had a big grin from start to finish!Aw, what a nice guy, smiling all the time and says 'we' already.
I didn't even realize that Falcao spoke English.Don't think this has been posted yet. Here's Falcao's full first interview

Ah well, probably the only 'logical' explanation ( because naturally logic doesn't apply when talking about RM ).They got a little pea from a much bigger market than Colombia.
I didn't know that either, until I checked his twitter. He often posts in English.I didn't even realize that Falcao spoke English.
He's not that dependant on pace it seems anyway. It's not like Shevchenko - a player who scored goals by running in behind.Is there really much of a worry about his knee injury? This is different to the Vidal situation as although Falcao suffered a more serious injury, he wasn't rushed back like Vidal so his recovery should be better in the long run. It's also worth noting that he suffered two serious injuries to the same knee before he even moved to Europe and that didn't seem to do him any harm. I don't think this injury will necessary mean he will lose any pace at all.
Yup, Di Maria long sleeve jersey is next!With his name and number on it?
Awww xxx thanksHappy birthday for then my good man. Let's hope you have twice the reason to celebrate.
This is brilliant. Surely the new Viva Ronaldo.Yeah he had a big grin from start to finish!
Another video of the Falcao chant of Atletico fans. Hope our fans take to it too!
Amazing how he can't even hold his smile. The guy is happy as feck.Don't think this has been posted yet. Here's Falcao's full first interview

I'm buying Di Maria 7 one this year and Falcao 9 next season if we make it permanent.Yup, Di Maria long sleeve jersey is next!
He was pretty good at Monaco aswell. 11 goals in 19 last season before injury, and he's already managed 2 this season before signing for us.Definetly a player you would rather have in your team than in City/Chelsea's
If he can reach his Atletico form again defenses will fear us again
This will mean Rooney and rvp can't afford to put in the kind of performances we've seen from them so far this season.Have we unsettled the squad even further?
Yeah i watched him against Bordeaux a couple of weeks ago, he scored a last minute equaliser I thinkHe was pretty good at Monaco aswell. 11 goals in 19 last season before injury, and he's already managed 2 this season before signing for us.
Best positional movement of any striker on Earth.Where do we rate Falcao's movement compared to other strikers in the league? Not too up to date on him.
On the face of it, I just thought it's something we've gone for because he became available recently. But the club made a point of saying when the squad numbers were announced that 5,7 and 9 would be taken by new signings, or something along them lines. Maybe we had already lined him up. I didn't expect us to sign another striker.In his interview with MUTV he says he has been waiting for this move for a lot of the year. Do you think there was something lined up for a while or just a translation error?
Also does anyone think we have signed him purely for the year or do you expect us to fork out what would be a large fee on a 29year old (things time next year)? I know a lot will depend on how he performs over the season. Anyway needless to say im excited by the signing but we need to vastly improve our supply to the strikers
Absolutely. If Falcao's fit, you feel he plays. The other two, who were pretty much guaranteed a place before, now need to buck their ideas up. You'd imagine it might be then Rooney, van Persie and Mata battling for just two places in the team.This will mean Rooney and rvp can't afford to put in the kind of performances we've seen from them so far this season.

It would explain why it seemed like he was a dead cert for Madrid for months now yet it never happened and they went for Hernandez instead (can you really see a muppet club like Madrid passing on Falcao?).On the face of it, I just thought it's something we've gone for because he became available recently.

i just know that he started following some Real players on instagram a few weeks ago, but on Saturday he wrote dream come true #HalaMadrid on twitter and then deleted it.It would explain why it seemed like he was a dead cert for Madrid for months now yet it never happened and they went for Hernandez instead (can you really see a muppet club like Madrid passing on Falcao?).
Having said that, didn't Falcao say something on Twitter about him getting his dream move to Madrid a few weeks ago?.
Now we have Mata, Herrera and Falcao as the nicest people in the PL. Shame chicha went, he was the nicest out of all of them.
How can anyone be against this transfer is just beyond me? I think Falcao and Mata might just be the nicest people in the world.Don't think this has been posted yet. Here's Falcao's full first interview

Funny how Di Maria and Falcao are 'panic buys'. If don't sign them, they say we can't attract the best and CL meant we couldn't sign them. Now that we have those big name players, they say they panic buys and paid extraordinary amounts of money. It is a literally catch 22 situation.http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/man-uniteds-radamel-falcao-transfer-4152849
Not sure what these jounos are on, dammed if we do, dammed if we don't.
What really gets on my nerves though is the part where he says we offloaded Welbeck for £4 million less than Falcao will cost us for the year, this including Falcao's wages for the duration of the loan, conveniently forgetting Welbecks wages for the coming year at Arsenal which must be £100 k at least, which actually means Falaco is costing us £1.2 million less.
Seems alot of the papers are unhappy with us for not taking the moral high ground, and be happy wallowing in mid table until we nurture talented English players through the system, whilst making the odd astute purchase of players that other top clubs have missed, to return us to the top..... could have been a long wait!
