People will try to justify and get excited over anything. We could sign a balloon and some people will be like "that balloon once scored for sunderland against liverpool, it will return to form.

All that stuff by Mourinho about earning your time on the pitch - never a bigger indictment of it as total BS than having Falcao get more minutes over Remy.

I'm more worried about players like Ramires who can't pass a ball than Falcao.

I don't trust that at all.

Sounds like someone ready to offload damaged goods.

Don't want another Torres...

Don't want him either, never wanted him even when he was performing at a very high level at Atletico. It would be a disaster IMO.

However, Mourinho did suggest a move for Monaco striker Falcao could be a possibility in the future.

He said: "I have a team, but no striker. Falcao does not have a team. A player like him can't play in front of 3,000 people. Monaco is a club to end [your career with]."

According to Ranieri his recovery is going so well that he'll make the WC.

I hope it's true, Colombians bought 65k tickets for the World Cup and it would be a shame if their primary player couldnt participate...

As for us signing him, I wouldnt mind it tbh. He is a fantastic player and people dont like to give him half the credit he deserves. He is way better than Diego Costa!

I know he is coming out of a big knee injury, but he can definitely recover from it. Ronaldo (fat) had 2 of those more than a decade ago and he came back to win a WC in huge style. So did Adrian Peterson, in only 8 months btw. Not saying we shouldnt be worried, but it doesnt mean Falcao is done just because he had a knee injury.

Of course I would prefer Cavani (I'd have actually signed him last summer), but if it is for the right amount (30-35mi), I cant see it doing us any harm...

Signing him is not an option anymore. He just turned 28 and suffered a serious knee injury. He would be very expensive too. Too much risk.

You have a point, but I think he might be just what we want IF he recovers from that injury. ACL injuries aren't all the same and players recover differently from them so I wouldn't write him off just yet. Yes, he would be expensive but if he scores goals like he has done then he could be the difference between winning a title and not winning a title.

Jose has got us winning games against the 'big boys' without a striker for all intents, but we still need someone who can poke home a goal against the weaker teams. Look at that cross Ivanovic put in against Everton - that was tailor-made for a poacher like Falcao but Eto'o simply couldn't make it. Look at the chances we created against West Ham or even some of the breaks against West Brom. Those are the games crying out for an out and out striker.
