Loaning players on deadline day to fix problems they should have fixed weeks ago or months ago
Players they don't actually need
Ha true. Comparing desperate manner
He has to prove himself.
If he was that good CL teams would have got him
I'm guessing we are going down the Chelsea/City route buying quality until something sticks. It is an expensive and longer route but if you have enough money it does eventually work.
You're owned by Americans who have to borrow and pay interest on every dollar they spend. Not oil billionaires. I couple of seasons out of CL and all of this can quite spectacularly explode.
Why last minute loans. Where is the plan
Including wages it's around 40m for the season for Falcao.
That's beyond insane.

We're hearing Mohamed Salah could be on his way to #cpfc on a season long loan, More to come. #transferdeadlineday #CFC #cpfc
Poor Salah. Not.

Well one of the jounos is saying that the 20m covers wages. 8m loan fee + 12m for wages. That means he's on about 230K a week?
Falcao huh! I've heard of him. Annoying if they get someone who I've heard of.
LOL.
United to play new formation.

Manchester City's Micah Richards is expected to end his 12-year stay at the club by joining Fiorentina.
Richards, 26, has arrived in Italy and is set to become the 24th Englishman to play for a Serie A club.
not sure how it will work out but fair fucks to him , british players need to try other leagues more often .

they need to start handing out more bans on this site for shocking behaviour . FFF deserves at least a 7 minute ban for that quiff .
Bascombe (i know) claiming that Assaidi has asked for 50k a week from Stoke.
"The former Liverpool, Bolton and Swansea striker is on the verge of signing for Reims, who are currently second from bottom in the French top flight.
"N'gog is a free agent after being released by Swansea at the end of last season. He only made three appearances for the Swans and failed to find the back of the net."

the guardian are saying the falcao loan deal is 6m . hmm , that's not too bad at all . would he have worked in our formation ? mario is a striker but he is more mobile and can play in other positions , falcao would be right up front and not anything else .
He's on 9 mill £ after tax appaz
Everything from 6-12 has been reported
More on United. I've seen this so many times in football and other sports: they assemble a team from the biggest names they can buy at a great expense. The rest of the positions are filled by cheap and mediocre players because after filling half of the positions with superstars there is no money left to upgrade these areas – and the thinking goes that the "superstars" will just win the games on their own, so it doesn't matter who plays in defense. Fans are excited, journalists all as one are predicting great things.
... By mid-season the team isn't clicking and to everyone's surprise they struggle with what was supposed to be their strongest point – offense. Everybody takes turns criticizing the manager. Man United of today is the NY Yankees of the last few years. They are a great bunch of names, but I can see this already – they will not "click." There is nothing that can bring Rooney, Blackett, Mata, Ashley Young, Fletcher and the on-loan Falcao together as a team, there is no connecting thread that can possibly bring them together. Di Maria will get tired of running and making space alone, while the likes of Mata and Rooney wait for the ball to come to their feet. I think they are also making a mistake if they let Welbeck leave of loan, as he is one of the few players who can "glue" this attack together (but him alone is not enough).

Two other journalists claiming arsenal didn't get him cos only offered 8m loan fee, so someone is wrong.
