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.

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.

indeed.

hi Henrique. in that post i was talking about the person editing the first team page ' https://www.chelseafc.com/teams/first-team.html ' on chelseafc.com was messing up and changing and editing the links for players and falcao and begovic are removed from the strikers and goalkeepers list of names.

i can't stand how badly and slow and lazy the admins at chelseafc.com are so shit at running the CFC website.

It's crazy this thread as @Barbara has alluded to.

Falcao - being judged on last season = finished

Let's compare that to Harry Kane...

Last season great, this season no goal in 9 games...

I did comment at the time he might be a one season wonder - but I was shot down.

Strikers thrive on Confidence - end of story - build a strikers confidence and they can score from any chance it seems - a striker with low confidence would sky it from 2 yards

Well done to him for taking his chance and let's hope it continues - for Chelsea's sake...

this picture we have for his thread is a travesty, lol, every time I see it I have to double check the name. I'm sure we can find a better one... he doesn't even have that haircut anymore and yeah, I'm nitpicking

The picture sums up his career for the past year. I'm sure he'll get a nice one if/once he hits some form for us.

Falcao is much older than Kane - it is expected of kane to be inconsistent at this stage of his career. He is still a good player even when not scoring.

Strikers need confidence, which is indeed true. However, they also need technique and legs... especially at this level. Without both they will not find the space and won't have time/competence to apply the finish. And won't build confidence.

Torres had technique, but no legs. There was no way for him to build confidence as his streaks of good form were short-lived.

The question mark concerning Falcao is his fitness. Another serious injury or a sequence of minor muscle injuries could be the end of his career at this level.

Knees are never the same after serious injuries - from a players perspective it's usually worse than breaking a bone.

At hist best, Falcao is better than Costa, so it does make sense for the club to hope for the best here.

He is still incredible at playing with head, that goal was superb.

There's data about him scoring more than 50% goals with his head in career. It's simple, give him good ball/cross - he will (probably) convert it. Don't give him good ball/cross - you will have man less on the pitch. Classic number 9.

UK press keep saying Falcao failed to make any impact, when he never started a single game, and usually play for 15 minutes when Mourinho press his "i dont know what to do" button.

He got as much goal as Costa, who is loved by british press for being a "street fighter".

Him or Remy need to be given the nod ahead of Diego for tomorrow. And you cannot full judge this lad on the cameos he's played so far. I'm looking forward to seeing a team sheet with either his name on it or Loic's
