Radamel Falcao

[Jase 43,479]

Like all time Smashing and judging with hands in the air? C'mon i know he can do a lot but in some games he is doing nothing. One game break will be good, not only for him...

I know Costa can be somewhat of a thug at times but people are over-exaggerating the situation. It's not as bad as some people are making it out to be.

But from other hands if nobody can cross to him like Pedro to Falcao last game or like Pedro with WBA, he will be useless. He isn't like Aguero.

The same could be said for Falcao and no offence but you're naive if you think Costa does nothing else other than getting at the end of crosses. At his best, he offers so much more than Falcao - stretches the play, links up with others, capable of creating his own chances etc.

Okey but let's compare last season when Fabs crosses and passes to Costa he was beast now when Fabs is under form Costa is somewhere too. It's like symbiosis.

And what about Falcao, i know he is far away from he is form befor injure but in UTD treiner(LVG LMAO) didnt give him changes and trust. One Full match now will be good for him.

I know Costa is our best one but Falcao can score too. the biggest lose of this is Remy :/

[It's too big 625]

Falcao just needs the fitness level to increase and he'll come good. I always had faith in Radamel Falcao García Zárate; Man Utd will regret getting rid as Rooney continues to fail for them

Rather than blaming Van Gaal for Falcao's failure last season, maybe people should look at why he never trusted him to play in the starting XI...

We might as well just start the game with 10 men.

Ffs I can't remember us signing a player who got so much negative energy as much as Falcao does.

I guess some people haven't faced their feelings and cleared some questions in their head after Torres.

So even with LVG RVP goes away and Rooney plays so so. Falcao need trust in his skill or he just begin a Torres(in game not in price). JM exposing him from bench show some trust but in next match Falcao or Remy need play.

I think Van Gaal has a history with having clashes with his players, no?

How can that be used as an excuse for Falcao's failure last season? He was given a decent amount of game time by Van Gaal and he didn't perform anywhere near good. None of this performances suggest he's going to succeed with us/in the Premier League.

If he played only 54minutes for us in this season and score goal(for compered in UTD 1287minutes and 4 goal. Rooney and RvP have got 2x more time to scored). He looks like he has something to proove.

He didnt play any full match. I will wait for this, the rate him.

Maybe they didn't get along?

I don't see the reason to judge Falcao comparing to last season and expect him to fail because of it. Why not judge him after he gets a few more games?

I'm am aware he had an awful season with Manu, but he should be given a chance by some fans rather then getting slayed over 10-15mins he sometimes gets, that's not fair to him.

When given chance by Jose, he has looked sharp and very motivated. His goal from yesterday was brilliant.

You can call it unfair but if last season was anything to go by, then Falcao won't do well for us this season (if he does, then fair play). He was unconvincing at United and with Colombia too during the Copa America. His form has completely gone out of the window since the serious knee injury he picked up in January 2014.

Yes, he did score a good goal yesterday but otherwise, he hasn't done much and the highlighted sentence above is exactly why people draw similarities with Torres. People keep on heaping praises for the very little things even when he has nothing to warrant a praise.

Real shame his goal didn't get us a result... It should have, well taken header.

[Pacquiao 1,834]

Falcao has 1 goal in 53 minutes of football so far this season, and he is still getting criticized by people on here?

it makes me think the people who are criticizing Falcao after 53 minutes of football, are people who are desperate for him fail, and probably the same people who think Bamford should be in the squad instead of Falcao, Bamford can't even get into the Palace team, and its highly likely he will never make it at Chelsea!

Falcao has looked good so far but its too early to judge whether he will be a success or failure, so the best thing to do is just support him and hope he does well, because so far its looking like he will be a success here.

I would start him vs everton

[Duppy Conqueror 1,494]

I want anyone who puts on a Chelsea shirt to succeed. doesn`t matter who. when we are talking center forwards my money is on Costa doing more for us.

it would be better for us as a club if Falcao,the player we haven`t signed to a longterm contract like we have Costa to, would have the least impact/lesser year. but that doesn`t cloud my opinion of the two.

I am replying as somebody who has not been for or against loaning Falcao..just for those who are lazy in reading what others have said and decide to sweep members who don`t entirely agree with you into the "fanboy" or "hater" piles.

This thread should be merged with Diego's and renamed The Twilight Zone.

I'm surely confused and lost reading the posts. I don't know where I am and please don't ask my name.

I can't even say what I came here for in the first place and believe me I'm not kidding.

Good goal, that's all I've got to say now. When I'm not that confused I'll probably have more to say, but in the meantime I'll avoid Diego's thread (haven't been there yet) because it might make me even more confused.
