Hoping for him as much as us that he plays a blinder today. You can't fault the guy's effort it's just not happening for him at all. Always horrible to see a top player in decline (especially a decline as rapid as his).

Does 'using football' entails constantly moaning about Falcao playing or working yourself up over Chevrolet's logo on the front of our shirts?
Having a stress outlet that seems to build up more stress, even over the tiniest of details, doesn't seem productive to me.
Somewhere there is the real Falcao and I hope today is the day where it all comes together.
If he scores a stunning hat trick today and then another next weekend, will you shell out his agreed fee (£40 odd million) for him?
Feels very much that we are already committed to keeping him, and probably have been from the outset with the "loan" just being an FFP dodge.
Our only way out is if someone else wants to sign him and expect the fee that anyone is willing to pay will be proportional to the get out fee in our deal.
If no one wants him we either keep him or cut our losses and pay a fee to give him back. Keeping him to Jan and hoping he picks up form may be the least worst solution.

Wouldn't begrudge him a start today as I thought he did ok when he came on against Palace. It's a shame the way things have played out for him here. We've been waiting for him to catch fire but we are at the end of the season now and still waiting. Maybe if we had played more games this season with more opportunity for rotation things might have been different. I hope he signs off with a goal but fully expect this to be his last game in a red shirt at Old Trafford. Farewell, Radamel 
Given what has gone on with De Gea's contract, and the influence that Mendes undoubtedly has had, I see absolutely no reason why we should honour any sort of 'agreement' that we have with him to sign Falcao.
I would, because that would prove he still has what gave him the world class reputation. We certainly need a striker of that level of quality.
I expect a hattrick from him today......
Because he has one fecking shot on target since January. In what universe is that acceptable?
One last chance for him to have his "forlan moment" basically... Go on El Tigre
The more I think about it, the more insane his inclusion is. Absolutely insane.
Please continue moaning and thinking about it And thinking its insane. I hope it goes well for you.
Ok I am worried now.
How is a striker who is so unbelievably poor that he has literally managed one shot on goal since January (it's may, for your information) playing for us yet again? How is that defensible?
Please Falcao, just turn on your charm. Just this one time.
One thing to bear in mind that Mario Gomez struggled in his and van Gaal's first season at Bayern, with just 14 goals in 45 appearances, and then something clicked and he scored 39 goals in 45 games the next season. Maybe van Gaal thinks the same can happen with Falcao? They're certainly similar kinds of players.
Is it May? Thank you for your condescending post.
Come on you little beast just recapture that form for one game before you leave, show us what you can do.
Man Utd 1:1 Arsenal
Slipping and sliding and falling over.
Get him a pair of decent boots for feck's sake.
Radamel Fallcao.
i'm hearing unconfirmed reports that falcao may have spent as much time on his feet as on the floor in this match for the first time in his united career.
"In honor of Steven Gerrard's last match at Anfield, I will slip and fall every time I touch the ball."

Well I think he's looked sharp so far despite having ice skates on, he's made some really intelligent runs and I think we might just need to release the ball to him a little quicker.
He really is completely useless. Has there been any explanation for him playing instead of RvP?
I feel sorry for him. His injury has permanently lessened his ability as a football and he knows it.
Hasn't really done anything wrong
No lack of effort. Really want him to score
But it's sad looking at him

Unbelievable how far he has fallen..
Besides the slips I think he has been decent. Some good runs, pressed well, held up well under pressure at times and won the ball back.
Literally painful to watch. He tries to do everything right, but he fails to do anything. Should've changed the boots also.
Can't turn, can't run, finished.
He just looks shit and uninspiring on the ball. Like he has no spunk.
Besides losing the ball almost every time he had it?
He seems a bit slow
I despise Van Gaal for giving him minutes.
This was over 8 weeks ago, yet we persist.

Thought he's done alright. Made some good runs. For United-Falcao, this is actually a decent performance.
Still slips like a buttery bar of soap.
