The greatest picture and caption in the history of the internet.

He comes across as a very likeable and humble chap.

Indeed, I dunno why but in his A.Madrid days I used to think that he was a cnut even though he never played dirty or gave me any reason. Must be the Colombian with long hair look or something :lol: . Have a feeling he'll be a fan favorite, while on the subject actually think at least 5/6 of our new guys will be fan favorites, we got very lucky with personalities and the 'wanting to be at United' factor.
 
He reminds me of the videos Ive seen of Gerd Muller. Even if the ball into the box isnt a good one he can still make something of it and if a defender loses concentration for a second he punishes it.
 
I can't believe he speaks English. I expected him to be one of those guys who just didn't give a shit about trying to integrate and all that.

But buzzwords/phrases like project, confidence and 'in this moment' will probably be his most commonly used terms in his time with us.

That was Van Persie in 2012-13. He made Evra and Valencia look like Beckham and Giggs.
 
I havent been this excited about a transfer since we got Rooney. Yes RVP, Mata and Di Maria were all exciting signings but when you have been following your favorite striker for 5 years now, for him to play for your club, its just surreal.

Rooney
Falcao
RVP
Di Maria
Mata
 
Genuinely can't wait to see him play for us.

While the international break has possibly been a life saver for us in terms of allowing our new signings to settle in a bit and getting other players back from injury, it's just been too long since we've played. I just want to see Falcao on the field. I want to see Falcao and Blind playing. I want to see Shaw play. I want to see Rojo play. We've not seen a full game from either Herrera or Di Maria. I want to see them play. I want to see Rafael back and Carrick. I don't know when I've had this much anticipation for a game before. Let's hope we get the three points most importantly. But to get the three points in fairly emphatic fashion would be nice. It would be great to see our new signings playing well and maybe make other teams start to think about us and fear us again. It would be great for our defence to look solid too.
 
It sucks that I don't think he'll start this weekend. He'll only have had like 2 or 3 training sessions with the team, and then we also have all of our injured players back pretty much. What a lift it would be though to see him, di Maria, Herrera, blind, shaw and Rojo added in though. There's a chance they'll all start as we'll more likely a couple being subs though. Exciting times.

If all are fully fit I imagine Herrera, Blind, Di Maria and Shaw will start. Possibly Rojo. Simply because our defence and midfield need them. You could be right about seeing Falcao off the bench though.

He is fully fit though because he has started 3 games for Monaco already. Didn't ADM start as soon as we sign him? We need Falcao to start and score.

Yes but the difference is in Falcaos position we have Rooney and Rvp... We had nobody to put in for Di maria for the Burnley game other then shit players. He's fit I know, its just that with only 2 days of training I don't think he'll start him when Herrera, blind, Shaw, Di maria and rojo are all basically making debuts.

His 50 headed goals for River Plate, Porto and Athletico. Man he must have some neck muscles to score some of these goals. Also I feel like he is similar to Vidic in the sense that he isn't afraid to put his head where other players wouldnt.

Damn, not seen this one. Who scores so many goals with his head? Unbelievable. If he's half as good as these video compilations show he'll be a God. He scores with left and right. He;s handsome as fk and so humble. I'm in love

Imagine the noise when he comes on.
 
It's pretty much two weeks since we signed him and I still can't get my head around the fact that we're going to be watching Falcao wearing the no. 9 shirt for us this season and hopefully longer.

The signing nobody even expected but the one that could be the catalyst to LVG producing an amazing United side (with Di Maria too :drool:).

Finally it will make sense to cross the ball in the box.

We have so many players to come in from the first 3 games it really will be a completely different affair.

If we hit any type of momentum, someone is going to take an absolute monstering.
