BBC Sport's Simon Stone: "A loan deal is agreed for Radamel Falcao to join Manchester United, subject to a medical and personal terms being agreed."

Seems so, what a shocker, can't see Negredo leaving now.

Welbeck is defo leaving now(Hernandez as well but that was gonna happen regardless)

Wonder how LVG is going to fit everyone in.

I don't see what falcao brings that RVP doesn't already provide. Hernandez and Wellbeck may be a level below Falcao but they do provide something different in attack. Of all the strikers available I can't think of any more like RVP.

The rumor is RVP is injured and needs surgery, thus could be out for upwards of 4-6 months.

 

[StinkyBoHoon]

well that makes more sense, what he has that RVP doesn't is legs that work.

I also think RVP's time as a top class striker are over, he could totally return from this long layoff and never recover form and dwindle out, he already isn't at the level he showed in 11-12 with Arsenal and 12-13 at United.

The exact figures of the Falcao deal is still blurry, all the journalists seem to be after the latest scoop and it just seems hectic out there.

Basically a free, War should be happy with an English player going to Serie A.

Good deal for both parties.

Just we need.
The problem with Falcao is that he had a nasty long term knee injury and no one knows how he'll turnout, could be a flop or could be a star.

Falcao's already scored 2 goals in 3 games for Monaco this season.

Falcao to Utd on loan confirmed by SS news... wow... but aren't we strengthening in the wrong areas? Or are we going the Newcastle circa 1996 route of 'you score three, we'll score four'...

Hernandez to Real on loan... hmmm...wrong deal for me as far as he's concerned. Is he really going to get into Real's first team any more than he did Utd's?

Of course he's. Actually, both Benzema and Hernandez are super subs and since Benzema always started when we had Morata, I believe that Benzema will play till max 60 minutes. And this is the only way both the strikers can play.

SS: Welbeck at Arsenal for a medical.

SS: Kagawa back to Dortmund.

I don't want to be **** and say this now, but if United fail to make top 4 this season, I really don't think Falcao will sign on a permanent deal and we could have another Tevez situation on our hands.

Transfer news: Alvaro Negredo close to Valencia move as Manchester City departures loom | Football News | Sky Sports

No idea why we're letting him go with no replacement coming in... it would make sense in January with no spending cap effective and he's already out till October, but apparently he basically begged the club's hierarchy to leave this morning, Manchester really must be that bad eh.
