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.

wuuuh, I'm turning into a little kid atm. I dont care about any presents for christmas eve, I'm just excited about the fact (it's a fact after what Benitez said) that we will get a new striker. Now one can only dream about our potential targets.

Good stuff..

Benitez will not send Torres to the bench.That is not his aim.He wants to prove that he is the manager,who can bring Torres to his best .Maybe he can do it,but I doubt that.Falcao would be a big dream,although I think he is too expensive.

Well, yeah you might be right.

But it's a fact that we will get a new striker come this january and it should be a pretty good striker who can compete with Torres (should be easy for a new striker) and then Benitez is going to play him (otherwise the fans will be pissed)

I expect a Demba Ba or a Wilfried Bony.A Falcao would be a dream,but Benitez won´t allow the board to buy such a competition for Torres.He said yesterday or so that Torres is closer to his best and it would be weird,if he wants to buy Falcao.The important thing is to sell Torres then Falcao arrives and that won´t happen.That would mean that we have to buy to strikers in January.The salary of Torres is too high to put him on the bench

Falcao is probably worlds best striker now, but lets check few things:

1.) 50mio. Since when was big money striker a sucess here? Drogba was expensive, but 25 is much less than what Torres or Sheva cost. Falcao would be even more expensive and I dont want a flop again.

2.) Falcao and Torres are similar players in style. Both are best at counters with fast ball movement. We dont play that style. Even Falcao is class now (When we bought Torres, he wasnt that good), but it doesnt mean that Falcao will score for us just because he scores in La liga now.

3.) We need to strenghten midfield. Moutinho, Cabaye, Capoue, Pjanic, Moussa Sissoko, Benat, Camacho, Isco, Gundogan, Bender,...since Mikel will go to Afcon, Romeu is injured, we might even need two of them or recall Kdb.

4.) There are other options available. Cheaper. Lewandowski would be my fav option if we go after class, young striker for mid price. Doubt he will go in january...Aubameyang, Bony, Llorente (not my prefered option, but he will be available), Lisandro Lopez, Gomis, Villa, Ba,...

5.) We have time in summer. Since Danny will probably leave too, we might need two strikers. Lewandowski and Bony would be incredible for me. And we can still sign Cavani in summer.

----

Is Falcao realy that necessary? All we need is good finisher with some ball control and team play. Lewandowski or Cavani (more expensive option) are my choices. Bony as backup and we are good to go with another CM.

Lol, if things go right, could be RG3 v Wilson in playoffs ;)

I would take that but me and 7 mates do a sweepstake every year where we get four teams each - I've got Bills who are pathetic, Patriots and Seahawks, and also Giants, so could really do with Giants making playoffs. If Redskins can too, I wouldn't mind cos I do like RG3 - prefer him to Andrew Luck!

I just don't want to have the problem of having to address the striker position again, Falcao makes perfect sense in that regard. I won't be disappointed if we don't get him but if not him we need to grab someone who is in form.... Any names?

We will probably just buy walcott now and he will be our sturridge replacement... I hope not, (don't mind it that much as he gives some great pace) but he is not a proper striker. Hopefully falcao...

Falcao and a lampard 2 year contract would make my chrimbo... :)

I'm thinking Walcott and a proper CF even someone like Bony (still hoping for Falcao)
