Would remind ya of Forlan.
Was poor, but still better then RVP again
It is rare when everyone agrees on the Caf. Nice guy, shame that injuries have obviously taken their toll, time for him to go.
Its a shame, hoped it would have worked. All the best.
Looked to be waving goodbye but he definitely gave it his all today and looked better than RvP.
His constant slipping and falling over makes me think that hes still not fully recovered from his injury woes. There has to be something in him constantly falling over other than poor studs, i never saw as many players fail to keep their balance like he did today (or for most games this season)
All the best El Tigre.
Really glad to see the back of him, but it is a shame it didn't work out. Seems a nice guy and the right kind of player you want to have at United. Apart from the never actually playing any football part even when he was on the pitch.
Wish him the best.

My sentiments exactly. Class from OT. Wasn't for lack of effort from Falcao, hopefully he can rediscover his form elsewhere.
I couldn't fault his work rate or him for trying but he just doesn't have that cutting edge and he seems to be always a yard or two off the pace.
It's a pity things didn't work out for him this season and I'd be really surprised if LvG holds onto him too.

Works hard, commend the effort, just not good enough post injury sadly, goodbye.
Cheeky change to the thread name.
But yea, can't fault him for today, worked his ass off, good luck to him in recovering his form if it's even possible somewhere else.

Well at least he was better than Van Persie so that's something. Shame it's not worked out, not just for the benefit of the team but because he seems such a nice person. Glad we're not buying him though.
No doubt about that, I'd like to keep Fallcao if we can do a deal. Sadly, RVP looks finished.
I want him to stay for these reasons. Link provided to save duplicating my post. https://www.redcafe.net/threads/we-need-a-new-striker.404751/#post-17533415
It's sad to see him left this way. He's done all his could and worked tirelessly throughout the hour. It's really hard to blame the lad for not scoring goals when there's no real decent service delivered to him. When he tapped the crest and waved goodbye to the fans tears started rolling down my cheeks. It shouldn't have ended this way..
Haha seriously?. Yes it's annoying he didn't show his best here, but he never once looked the same falcao. People say he got "no service" but look at giroud, he gets plenty of service but with no pace and dribbling ability unless balls are served on a plate they can't score. Top class strikers shouldn't be reliant on that.
My God he was shite today. Spent half the game on his arse and must be the slowest player on the pitch. I genuinely feel sorry for the guy though. The whole thing is such a pity. He could and should have been a United legend.
I really thought he'd have been the ideal premier league center forward and goalscorer. I suppose I didn't realize how much he had regressed due to his injuries. Can see him moving to La Liga this summer and rekindling some of his form.
Shame, really. We desperately need a new goalscorer.

When he went off, waved and patted the club badge without thinking I stood up and applauded him. It's a shame it didn't work out well for him here, comes across as a quite a nice chap. I hope he has better success elsewhere.
It's always a bit sad to see a player look a shadow of their former selves when they're not even 29/30.
I thought he played good the last 2 games saw signs of the old Falcao in terms of his running lines. Obviously still lacks sharpness and killer instinct and he is clearly low on confidence aswell but I have a feeling if he gets a couple of games going for him and could bang in those first few goals he could start growing to his best form again.
Unfortunatley I think that will play out at another club and I fear we'll end up regretting not giving him another year. On the other hand you are never sure about these things and the performance this season doesn't warrant the kind investment needed to make his move a permanent one.
Really have a double feeling over this. I just hope if he goes that RVP also goes because imo he looks far worse than Falcao and contrary to the latter I don't believe RVP can and will improve in fact I think he is well and truely past it and will only deteriorate more. If both go than atleast we'll be forced to bring in another striker and then I hope we get it bang on this time and bring in another 25+ striker ala Lacazette or somebody like Benteke.

I wanted to cry 
I feel sorry for the guy.
Such a likeable guy but unfortunately that's irrelevant. He obviously shouldn't be bought on a permanent basis. Yet for some reason I'll still be sad to see him go.
That wave and kiss of the badge was sad

Can anybody remember the four goals he scored? I remember Everton, Villa and Stoke but struggling to remember the other?
^ Leicester at home?
Leicester at home.
Nothing was more symbolic of his season here than that disastrous left footed volley.
Disappointed that it didn't work out for him, but he was shit all season. Shit her, shit there, shit everywhere, can't believe he started before RVP. Ridiculous.
Seems a good guy. he tried and we certainly gave him plenty of opportunities but he doesn't look physically up to the task, wish him all the best (unless he goes scouse)
Agreed. Can't we get him on loan for another season, for lower wages?
Why would you even want him on loan again? even Chicharito would be a better 3rd option off of the bench for us.
Feel bad for him but he just is not good enough. I hope he gets a better time of it at his next club.
It was worth a loan punt. In most instances a player of his quality would've contributed much more this year. All the best to him.
Good luck to him, it was a emotional good bye which nearly bought a tear to my eye!
It's a shame we can't keep him with Depay and ADM playing next season I think we need a predator like him!
