Radamel Falcao

[Hutcho 8,443]

I just hope we don't drag it to the last minute no matter he comes or not, get someone QUICK at the beginning of the transfer window!

Torres has been doing well lately but the last game has clearly showed that he was knackered.

With Moses' departure to ACON we will be literally down to single centre forward in January if we drag transfers to the last minute.

Yeah like 40 mil for heskey.

That would be believable if you didn't write my dearest...

our chances of getting him went right out of the door with our elimination in the CL

he wanted to join the European champions, not this...

[Alee. 182]

Any big player will know we're going to be the UCL next season. We've a big team despite the fact we're stuck in the Europa League this season. It's a long term commitment signing for a big club, our elimination from the Champions League should not discourage him altogether even if it does cross his mind.

Falcao won't leave Athletico in January, so we should stop thinking about signing Falcao in January.

Who are the other strikers you would want Chelsea to sign ?

1) David Villa

2) Andre Schurrle

3) Bafetimbi Gomis

4) Wilfried Bony

5) Others

This ^ We need someone who will take the least minimum time to gel with the squad , and Villa is the best available option .

The same thing was with Torres when we sign him. If we play the price he will come.

haha exactly this thread should be locked till summer, like that list; Villa would be an amazing short term option.

Players dont join clubs just because they won the UCL that year. They join because they believe the club has a future and can compete for the UCL and other major trophies. People will say Hazard joined us because we won the UCL but I don't believe that; he delayed signing for the Manc clubs probably because he wanted to live in London and play for us, our cl performances would hardly make a playmaker like him want to join, Agent Cole sold talked up Chelsea a lot when he was at Lille and told Hazard we were the right club for him.

If Falcao wants to compete for the big trophies but remain loyal to Atletico, he will come here. We consistently fight for trophies and often go on good spells in the UCL unlike City, if he joined Real he would be betraying Atletico as they are very close rivals. Can't see PSG being appealing to him at all, apart from the money.

The press is reporting that Falcao said he won't leave Athletico in the January window. Apparently he himself said so on the Dubai sportconference.

Edit: I've seen the footage of him saying it in Dubai. So there's no rumours, he actually said it.

So, we can be sure Falcao said he won't leave (if he eventually will or not, that's another question, he might be lying).

I'm actually kinda bummed about this. Not that I really really wanted Falcao over everything (because he's very expensive and I don't like putting all my eggs in one basket), but then again you wouldn't have heard me complain, the guy's great to watch!
