More links today about Falcao signing for us with Hernandez going the other way. http://www.manutd.com/en/News-And-F...13/Apr/Papers-Chicha-and-cash-for-Falcao.aspx
hernandez is younger, already well established with his team mates, and more importantly, knows his role in the squad. if falcao came he would (quite rightly) want first team football week in week out. it could very well cause friction within an attacking unit which is already full.
I think Fergie is wanting to go back to 2 up front and since Rooney keeps dropping deeper he would play him in behind Falcao and RVP
The biggest thing United would get out of signing him is that he wouldn't be going to Chelsea or City.
Yeh this. Hernandez is in my top 3 favourite United players though, and brings us someone in the Ole mold so would really hurt to see him go.
Haha it's amazing how easily fans can talk themselves into thinking that signing one of the top 5 players in the world is a bad idea. Reminds me of the whole "we shouldn't sign RVP" camp last summer.
Hernandez is a lovable guy but that's a bit like marrying a supermodel and spending the whole wedding moaning about a lost pair of trainers that you sort of liked.
Dunno about that tbh. Falcao is probably better at running with the ball somewhat and stronger. But RVP's control and first touch are better. Falcao hasn't been great this season in the second half either after he had a flying start in the first half. And when they are both not scoring RVP > Falcao.
