The tale of Falcao is one of the most disappointing Premier League stories in recent years, following his shock loan switch from Monaco to Manchester United. His deadline day move was greeted by a real sense of excitement across the country as the nation looked to set to get a glimpse of one of Europe's hottest attacking talents at the peak of his career. Unfortunately, the Columbian has failed to reproduce any of his deadly form that earned him a fearsome reputation at Porto and Atletico Madrid, and has only netted 4 goals in 23 games for the Red Devils. His performances have been abject, and Louis Van Gaal simply can't trust him to even come off the bench at times to impact a game. He was 88 level, but surely that won't last.
