FFP is no issue whatsoever for us - it's not about what you spend, it's about living within your means. we have the greatest UEFA-accpeted means in world football.

The year loan with option is presumably to give us time to sell one of RVP / Rooney if everyone is fit at the end of the year.
If that happens and we're in Europe again next season then we'll need one or the other of Chich or Welbeck as back-up won't we?
 
And it's only 10.33. I did not expect deadline day to start like this.
 
An hour ago I was laughing off these Falcao rumours.

And now look at me, a fool, a damned fool.

Oh Woodward, you silver tongued bastard.
 
And I think this deal really shows that the journos truly have zero clue as to what's happening with regards to United transfers.
 
Was working on this about a week ago but I had no idea how to finish it or where to put it even. However, since Woody's gone nuts this window particularly with this piece of news:

:lol:

Perfect!
 
Financially the move isn't ridiculous as first thought. Still a strange move but a fantastic striker.
 
I've seen him a couple of times. He still looks pretty clinical.

Hes still good, but since coming back and during his time at Monaco he was only decent. scoring 9 league goals last season. He is no longer world class.
 
This must mean that RvP's supposed to have his awaited surgery now which will keep him out for a long time. Otherwise this makes zero sense to me.
 
Hernandez is off, we need four strikers. No problem at all IMO, even less so if Welbeck leaves. RVP needs an op too ... And it's Radamael bloody Falcao!!!!
 
To be fair though a loan deal for 16 million ish isnt bad for a good backup striker.
 
can we sell rooney please? Radamel is another 9, we would have RVP, Rooney and Falcao in that position, Van Gaal should already know it doesnt work with two 9s in 3-5-2. I would take Welbeck over Falcao anyday.. and Falcao over RVP/Rooney anyday

Let it be a lesson to those who laugh off the Vidal rumours.

This is pure accuracy! :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::nervous:
 
Perhaps for the first half of the season while RVP's out, but when he comes back we'll have three strikers all expecting to play regularly and at least one will miss out. And I doubt that the move will be a temporary one. I think we'll probably try to sign him permanently next summer, which could force one of Rooneye or RVP out. Given that LVG chose to give Rooney the armband, it could be RVP on his way out.

RVP will be 32 by then. We've always known that SAF bascially bought him for a couple of seasons max. RVP did get his title in return.

Hernandez and possibly Welbeck going ,with RVP due for an operation it makes perfect sense.
