Pre-injury would be Falcao. Depends how he has recovered though.
Why is Monaco letting him go?
His build up play there was a bit of a rarity tbh. Never really seen him offering much in most of his Atletico games.
What the feck?! Can someone please explain this to me? I just awoke to this news at 8:30 am in nyc.
He wants too leave.
Falcao moving to us on loan, though its suggested that its a permanent deal worth 65million Euros.
This time last year we had the possibility of signing Fellaini, now we are on the verge of signing falcao. Decent.
Fecking unbelievable really 
Remember that, probably because it was so rare to see Giggs scoring such goals with his right. Obviously a fluke.
They aso say, we were only made aware of his availability in the last 48 hours.
RvP injury issues, and Welbeck, Hernandez gone/going.
What a signing!!!!
Im at work, feel ill, feel like crap and this has cheered me up no end, all ive heard from workmates is "you dont need a striker", "waste of money", "signing falcao instead of a defender, lol"
Its brilliant!! I can almost taste the bitterness of it all

This is just bizarre. Was laughing yesterday when the media linked us to Falcao, now we are signing him. Laughing hysterically now at the thought of signing Vidal....
Weirdest transfer ever?
Never ever thought we would be signing such a player, but the last couple of years have proved to be very different for us in the transfer market. Mata, Di Maria, RVP and now Falcao. Can't believe we have them.
I can't say I'm mad about this deal. If Van Persie is injured and requires surgery, then this deal makes total sense. Especially considering the fact Chicharito is on loan to Madrid, leaving Rooney, Welbeck and Wilson left as recognized strikers which isn't good enough for a club of Man Uniteds calibre and recent injury record.
I feel the same. Yesterday night when the rumors started cropping up out of nowhere I was thinking to myself, no way we are going to sign him... and here we are now.
Is he better finisher then Danny Welbeck?
Bebe, Kleberson, Djemba Djemba, Celio Silva .....the list is endless
No.
Certainly up there , mainly because it was a position many thought was practically covered.
no white text?
Apparently, Woodward is the voice actor for this card:

Click play and laugh.
Yup. He's not the best in build up play but his other qualities make up for it. He is (was?) the deadliest striker in the box in world football.
Falcao at his peak > Costa, but at this moment in time.. questionable.
There's only one way to find out........FIGHT !
Incredible amount of Left foot finishes for a right footed player.
Just.... stunning.
Wow.
Wow.
I would guess most of us here are.
I feel exhilarated and confused at the same time.
Can't believe that out of all seasons we have managed to sign absolute quality in a season when we are not even in the Europa League!
Oh and he will need a work permit, right?

I can't remember a transfer window where I've had to slowly list the players that we've signed off using my fingers to count.
