Manchester United loanee Radamel Falcao hinted on wanting to stay at Old Trafford beyond his temporary deal, which is bound to expire at the end of the season.

The 28-year-old Colombian international spent a season in France's Ligue 1 before feeling the need of moving to a bigger stage in the form of the Premier League.

"I'm good,' Falcao told ManUtd.com.

"My family are comfortable. We're enjoying life in Manchester and here at the club. The people have been great with me, with my family. We're happy and very grateful."

"Right from the start, they [my colleagues] welcomed me. They supported me and helped me with whatever I needed. They are a really humble group of players, really decent and, well, I was taken aback by how kind they've been."

The former Atletico Madrid man had been a key piece in Louis van Gaal's squad in the recent top-flight matches after suffering a minor injury woe this season.

"It's more attractive than the French league," he added.

"Defenders are stronger and more aggressive. In a good way, you know? It's intense and, well, overall just more physical."

"First of all, I'd say thank you so much for the way the fans have treated me. Then I'd want to wish them a happy 2015 and I hope that we can bring them some happiness."
