Radamel Falcao

[Sidzeret 2,257]

Like The Mak pointed out above, we've heard that before...with Torres and look where that got us. How sure are you it's just a confidence thing? Maybe he's past his best and is slowly going downhill. Even when he was at Monaco, he wasn't exactly setting the world alight either.

Let me get this straight. Earlier you were confidently saying Falcao is better than Remy and certain that he'll be a success for us. But now, you are saying he's worth a gamble if he comes on loan? In other words, you're not 100% sure he'll do well for us..

Let's all not just get ahead of ourselves here with Remy. He's a good back up and nothing more.

As for Falcao, ofc I'm not sure he's certainly gonna do well but he's shown signs of his former self especially at the international level. For all its worth, Falcao is only just as risky as any deal we are gonna sign this summer unless we're signing someone like Messi or Ronaldo.

Falcao to Chelsea at the request of Mourinho. Falcao's representative is finalizing details of the negotiation.(CFC)

Chelsea will announce the signing of Radamel Falcao after the Copa America. It's a done deal. [Antena2]

Not get ahead of ourselves with Remy? More like people are just under-appreciating him despite having scored goals and put in the performances for us.

It's probably because he isn't fancy enough that people feel the need to discard him for someone with a bigger name.

There are players who do well for their national teams but not their clubs. Form at international level doesn't mean much if you can't replicate it at club level. Just ask Podolski, for instance.

Falcao is more risky than any possible deal we might be doing because of his form and injury in recent seasons.

Falcao is close to a move to #Chelsea and the player is hopeful of making an official anouncement soon. [PUNTO PELOTA]

Much rather pay a bit more for Benteke than take Falcao. Falcao is too much of a gamble. Benteke is 5 years younger and PL proven. Falcao was shambolic in the Prem this year. Plus we don't know Benteke's upside since he's only played for Villa post Belgium days.

Benteke was absolutely abysmal first half the season. There's no proving he wouldn't replicate that poor form here.

I'd be very happy if the Falcao deal is a loan. Costa, Remy. Falcao as our front three options is pretty mouth watering.

And Benteke is different from Ba how? Falcao will do better for us than United. United had one creative player on the wing, we have a shit tonne of creative players.

When's Copa America over?

Vialli: "Knowing how good Mourinho is at getting the best out of his players & Falcao is an extraordinary striker, they'll be even stronger"

Vialli: "Can Falcao play with or instead of Costa? I don’t know. But definitely the more great players you have in your side, the better."

When's Copa America over?

not 100%, but early July i think?

[Billy. 2,742]

If this happens i just hope Jose can get the best out of him, because he wernt that good at United, if we get the A.Madrid Falcao then we are onto a winner

[nyikolajevics 2,690]

When's Copa America over?

On the 4th of July, but Colombia might finish it earlier.

How is Falcao an upgrade over Remy? Falcao is a goal poacher but outside of that, he offers very little in buildup plays and that is something you can't say about Remy. He scores goals and links up with others in creating goals. It's almost criminal how Remy is underrated by some here.

if Falcao can regain some of his old form then he will be much more then a poacher.

[Pacquiao 1,834]

I tell you what, Remy is proving himself so much so that Costa needs to be right on his toes because Remy is shit hot for me.

not sure if serious.

We'll have to buy LvG a nice bottle of wine for letting him have his troublesome bedding-in season with United already.
