Many doubted if this would be a success because of the accent, but I'm surprised. :) It's such an awesome chant!
 
Listen to Ballague's interview on Sky. He was bent on going to Madrid and it looked secured all summer until this Di Maria deal happened. Also do you honestly think Liverpool could afford his wages?

The thing that impressed me in his cameo was the chance from the rebound. All the defence stood still but Falcao had such quick reactions and a great striker instinct to get to the rebound
 
The sum of supporters in all the home matches he's played for Monaco may not even equal an OT at full capacity.
Absolutely :lol:

I was of the opinion that he is just here for the money ala Tevez; but watching his interview, his intelligence, reception at OT et all, warming up to the man now :)
 
Spot on. When you see the point at which he switched on to the possibility that there might be a rebound, compared to how slowly everybody else reacted, you can see why he scored so many goals.

That's one epic welcome. Guys like Falcao bring the football atmosphere with them on every stadium.

It's a healthy situation for the club that must unite again for the sake of success.

I enjoyed the interview he did with Geoff Shreeves. Especially when Falcao was naming all the former United players on the wall outside the dressing room. He got his Neville's mixed up though :lol:


The Falcao chant seemed almost non-stop. I can't remember a player who we've given a bigger reception to for a long time. It was great.

van Persie probably.

It was unbelievable, wasn't it? Never seen that for a sub warming up. Cant get it out of my head today. Mitten says in his column today:

Falcao wasn't even on the pitch, but pubs around Old Trafford and fans under a raffish J Stand were singing a song about him at half-time.

Its definitely the catchiest chant we've ever had. I've been whistling it at work.

It sounded like a great atmosphere on TV. Daley Blind also said how the home crowd blew him away.

I hope we continue to be as loud, home and away.
 
I love we've got the chant going. Seeing the actual game is now only marginally the most exciting thing about going to OT this season. He's going to be a cult hero because of the chant alone.

Weighing up the probabilities in an admittedly completely arbitrary way, I think he's the most likely of any of our new boys to be. Considering the hit rate of transfers, you've got to expect some disappointment in the balance of things, especially with 6 new arrivals. For every one to be a hit would be an almost unheard of master stroke of business and management. All the others look to have a defined purpose and Immediate starting role too, plus have got off to an absolute flyer (but then so did Djemba Djemba) and if anyone fits the Veron mould it's him.

Still, feck that kind of noise. I'd still love him for the chant alone. It's almost worth the money for the bounce it'll bring back to OT ....it's the new Viva Ronaldo (probably)
 
I just hope his United career doesn't go the way of other initially exciting new signings who immediately provoked a catchy and enjoyable chant. I'm looking at you Ander-son-son-son.
Difference being he's a proven top class player who single-handedly annihilated Chelsea in a final. Not to mention tormented the likes of Barcelona and Madrid for a couple of years. He'll be just fine, provided he stays fit.

Best atmosphere we have had for a long time.
 

Excellent stuff.

*ring ring*

kluivert : Hello?

LVG: Patrick... I need a favour.

Kluivert: Sure Boss.

LVG: Mind taking my two supershtar strikers out for dinner? We need a relationship going between those two. Can't play them both at the same time.

Kluivert: Aah sure thing Boss.

LVG: Oh and Patrick, don't invite Wayne. I've already made him captain. Plus none of you will understand a word he'd say anyway.

*click*

Is Falcao some sort of divine intervention sent by God?

Did nobody else just get the feeling that everything would be ok when we officially signed him up. People worship him already and you could just sense the lift in fellow reds when we finally got him. It almost felt like he was sent to restore us to our former glory.

I wonder how much the relation outside of the pitch affects a "partnership". Anybody got any good stories of people who clicked outside of the pitch, who very played well - or people who didn't click outside the pitch but they played well anyhow.
