Radamel Falcao

[ulvhedin 525]

He scored them for Genoa, not for Atleti, Porto, Monaco... Genoa. He had one great season and Mourinho made him a champion. Have a little faith in this lad, doesn't matter, it's a loan.

Yeah, 'scored' - Falcao did not score for Man Utd, and didn't score much for Monaco

Drogba actually outscored Falcao last season. This is a terrible signing imo, reeks of Jorge Mendes.

Drogba had Cesc and Hazard providing bullets...

You should look at the numbers from the service providers at Utd... Piss poor as was most of their build up.

Nobody gets signed because their agent says so, that is probably the stupidest thing someone can say about a loan deal.

Now sign Arda today too and make it an Atleti family reunion, please!

i'm so sure Jose will push Mendes to bring another atleti star.............Griezmann!!!

Two years ago I would have been buzzing.
It's not a pretty bad deal, replacing Drogba with this guy. It's just a loan so..

Falcao didn't look too bad last year imo.

Statistically, it was a huge drop, but with Cesc feeding him balls and hazard cutting through defenses, I think Falcao can do well here.

Why we don't loan Pele? doesn't matter, it's a loan, and Pele was great striker, like Falcao.

If you are referring to your post with that clown emoticon or to yourself in personal than feel free to do it. You are comparing a then ONE- season wonder to one of the best strikers with an off - season, because of a major injury. We've signed him on a fucking loan. Useless fickleness.

Mourinho taking a gamble...

Falcao trying to score against Cech. I'll believe it when I see it.

it happened once .. big time

[Jase 43,479]

Falcao set to play in his SECOND Champions League campaign next season after a FIVE-YEAR absence...

[Tomo 21,751]

The problem is even if he magically reproduces Leti form can we justify spending shit loads of money on a 30 year old when we already have one of the world's best strikers here?

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

He is yet tweet anything about Chelsea after the official announcement

#FalcaOut

[Hybrid Angel 2,130]

The more I think about it the more it looks like Jose is doing Mendes a favor.

I think its a bad signing and a waste of wages. I hope I'm wrong about all this though.

What if he wins a corner in the Champions League final that leads to our winning goal?

Jorge Mendes is really a double-edged sword, isn't he ? On the one hand he can get you great players — though on the second hand he can get you atrocious deals. Anyone remember Bebé ? Mendes pulled him out from nowhere to sell him for 9 millions to Ferguson, even though the latter admitted to never have seen him play once. The player eventually played twice for ManU and could not even command a spot on Benfica's bench when he was afterward sold to them.

Hope he does well if only to watch you moaning slags back track like mad

[CHOULO19 24,332]

That will never happen I for one am quietly optimistic about what Jose can do with our newly acquired third striker.

Quietly?! I wouldn't want to see how you'd be vocally optimistic!
