Falcao: I need playing time to earn deal

Radamel Falcao would love to stay at Manchester United but admits a permanent move to Old Trafford is likely to depend on how much he plays from now until the end of the season.

United appeared to pull off a major coup, signing Falcao from Monaco on deadline day, but so far the Colombian has not lived up to his star billing.

Thanks partly to injury, Falcao has struggled to find form, and has scored just once in 11 appearances.
