Abramovic will do anything to get him but he might try to reduce the 46 mil.But will we? Daily Fail at its very best. Reason? Here's why.

How is scoring goals a backward step?No offence dude, but your post really pissed me off for some reason...We need a Goal Scorer... ?My opinion:(1) Have u ever heard FFP(2) Geez drogba was only 24 Million falcao is well above 40(3)If you ever watched athletico madrid you will see that falcao alone seems to score y? And when he gets injured they find it difficult to adjust and hardly score more than 1goal per game in his absence that's jst over dependence (4)Torres or thiery henry at their peak for e.g always take 1 or 2 touches to set the ball as they like it before scoring(that's a specific way of scoring for them) unlike say van persie or drogba who are more direct. (5)Hazard and oscar are not strikers they don't compete with huge or fast defenders all the time as do strikers theirs is a deeper role and physical strength is a key part of falcao as he is an agressive striker esp in the air so if he is not tougher in the Epl he might not be as good(6) Having a specific goal scorer only for a big club is a backward step just take a look at messi and the current barcelona (not so strong as when there was variety)We need a goal scorer? I agree with you on this but falcao? I don't agree we have bought better players than falcao who where also as expensive so I don't want him. Torres to falcao to me is from frying pan to fire.I say we buy SEYDOU DUMBIA he is much cheaper than falcao and yes dumbia even has a better goal scoring record than falcao and is only 24 years of age. Dumbia is cheaper, younger and is more prolific than falcao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meetdoscar 335 Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Radamel Falcao: Age=26, Appearances=252, Goals=166, Market Value=47m poundsSeydou Dumbia: Age=24, Appearances= 196, Goals=120, Market Value=20m pounds(only!!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mediator 2,026 Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 That would be a bad idea to sign a striker that will be absent during the ACN... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
communicate 2,703 Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 So i read more about this "release clause" thing, and while some sources say its 65m euros, the meaning of this release clause is that we only need to pay it and Athletico can do nothing. It sounds too simple, but thats the deal. Will we splash this money in January? only Roman knows.. i have no idea. Yap that't the case, you will know this if you play Fm You just need to pay the release cause and the player is yours but 65 euros is a lot of money for another striker unless we can move torres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manpe 10,861 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 (2) Geez drogba was only 24 Million falcao is well above 40 Back then 24 million was today's 40 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamiCFC9 258 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Just look at the 2 goals he scored for Colombia, what more can any1 want from a striker ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 To me he almost feels like a player on loan who will eventually return. He is ours. Madrid will not get him, as simple as that. Citeh can dream on. Its just a matter of January or in the summer. This £46 million release clause sounds fantastic as well.

meetdoscar 335 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 @ mediatorDrogba was always absent during ACN didn't hurt us. More over we will always have sturridge and torres and also lukaku to come in. torres(50m pounds) Lukaku(18m pounds) Falcao (47m pounds)=114 pounds. In my honest opinion that's an insane amount to spend for just one striking position in our team, I mean we don't even play with two strikers at a time. I'd prefer a decent striker(Dumbia) and strengthening our DM position. I know its not my money but as a true fan I don't want our club to go into administration if we buy the almighty falcao and don't win enough trophies or become like liverpool now take a look at madrid and their galacticos they heavily under achieved.

We already have these miss-miss strikers in FT and DS. Ps: all other teams are now hoping we dont get Falcao. They say it will be practically, game over! just check on redcafe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidEU 2,023 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Release clauses are abit of an odd one in Spain aren't they because these figures dont include the tax we'd have to pay or something? If his release clause was £46m, and we activated, I'm sure we'd have to pay another sizeable amount on top of that.But Falcao is the real deal. Whatever the cost, hes proving hes worth it.

Reddish-Blue 2,503 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Torres is doing well for a striker past his peak but Falcao would just add another dimension to our attack.Sure, Torres' build up play has been good this season but as an opposition defender, you'd rather face Torres than Falcao.

meetdoscar 335 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 I believe that for us to buy falcao we MUST sell torres so that it will be a direct replacement . We can do what barca did with Etoo in ibrahimovic swap(although in that case etoo was always the better player) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif 6,006 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 The control and touch for his 2nd goal last night was one of the best I've seen in what, the past 5 seasons or so probably! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manuf 1,448 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Lewandowski won't come as long as he knows he won't be starting games. He wants to play and develop. Besides, Dortmund are having one of, if not the best plans at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 I couldn't see Falcao flopping. There is just no way right? He doesn't really rely on his speed nor does he overly rely on his strength. He relies on his instinct and finishing. Those are the deadliest Strikers of all.

DYC. 7,542 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 If we do sign him on deadline day i could potentially not find out for 2 months.You're going to live in a cave?Radamel Falcao really is something. When it comes to scoring goals, he's an absolute genius. Constantly making the best possible decisions, from timing to type of shot/header. Simply outstanding.
