blue_swaggin_96 96 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 i agree with the sensible posters on here about falcao and the 50million scare, we can't afford that, we need to get a 25 million striker and give lakaku time, we saw what sturridge did at bolton, but when he came back.. he was just as shit before he left.bring in cavani.. he fits us more his physical and very technical.

blue_swaggin_96 96 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Higuain seems to be under rated on here imo and whilst I would rather have Falcao he would still be a very good signing though I haven't seen much evidence to suggest we are seriously linked to him, except reports he is unhappy at Madrid due to being sat on the bench for a lot of the season.his too casual mate.. i remember a game where he was shit until ronaldo gave him couple of sitters before he scored one. we need back to the wall striker.... seriously no more fantasy flickers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinineUltra 1,170 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Does anybody know why Falcao hasn't made any appearances in Europa League this year? Seems a bit odd to me and the fact that we are offloading Sturridge when we lack firepower.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems a bit odd to me and the fact that we are offloading Sturridge when we lack firepower..because the group stage was easy for them, i'm sure if they lost a few games early in the group stage they would have played Falcao towards the end of the group stage, they just didn't need to unleash him really.

The Skipper 20,609 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 If the Italian league had as much exposure as the La Liga, people would be crying for Cavani. He is currently on 22 goals after 20 games after all. Monster. As prolific as Falcao over the last 2 and a half seasons but offers more to the team in my humble opinion.

If we were interested then people would be getting as excited... The same way messi is better than both of them but no one talks about getting him because it is never gonna happen.

Atletico haven't got a bid squad so it was a chance to rest Falcao as well as other key players. Regardless if he wanted to play or not the manager wanted to rest him for those games.

We aren't linked to him yet he seems to be offered up as a preference to falcao all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanishBlue 426 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Well, just because we aren't in for Cavani or Lewandowski according to the papers doesn't mean we wont go for them. The papers don't know that much. Who ever read about the Marin move in the papers? Noone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why people keep mention names that either a) we aren't linked to or haven't given any indication they are even going to be transfered.

The papers don't know that much. Who ever read about the Marin move in the papers? Noone. Actually we were linked with Marin earlier in the year.And there is no reason to speculate over names that haven't been linked to us especially since there are plenty of names that are. Its sort of silly to keep making suggestions about players who aren't likely to move Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanishBlue 426 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Maybe he was linked with us earlier but earlier this year we were also linked with Lewandowski. My point is that things happen behind the scenes - especially at Chelsea - so the papers don't know that much.But yeah, I know what you mean - it's better to focus on the player we are most likely to sign but I'm just saying that you can't say never and you never know. Another thing is that Falcao said that he wont leave Madrid this season. Still we are talking about him because many people hope to see him at the Bridge regardless of what he said Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but it at least gives a big indication of what is going on... People see someone play well and say we should buy x,y,z. But Falcao is realistic and that is why a lot of people are getting excited about the potential. If we were linked to cavani everyone would be going crazy probably including me hoping we sign him, but i am not going to say i would rather have this that or the other when there is an extremely minute chance we will get them atm... Obviously things change, but i am sure everyone has a list as long as their arm of players they would like to see us buy.As someone also said People really like the idea of getting lewandowski, but we are nowhere near the front of the queue for him and although we may like to think we can buy anyone the fact is we cant, as players don't want to move get better deals, want to go elsewhere or our club isn't interested.

Hutcho 8,443 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 but marin never signed.....oh waitYeah but who here was talking about getting marin... Very few. So yes just because we are not linked to a player doesn't mean we won't sign them, but that situation applies to every player we don't own. Yes they could be working at getting cavani and lewandowski in the background but it's a lot less unlikely given how much media attention they recieve.
