Radamel Falcao

[The Skipper 20,609]

Costa fucked it up with poor ball control. According to certain members here, Ivanovic is responsible for WWII aswell.

Well Ivanovic made the wrong decision to pass to Costa in the first place. It was very poor from Ivanovic.

Ivanovic has been the poorest performers in the team, of course he'll get slack for that. Most of our goals conceded this season - he's played a huge part in them.

He is starting midweek game, but its never good to be in that position. CF who are usually asked to play in that kind of game usually play for a weaker team that lacks chemistry, so the chances of scoring are not as big as it seems. But afer the match the news are preditcable "Falcao woeful form continues, as the striker was unable to score against Walsall."

Time for falcao to shine the next three games

"Shine". Let's go Remy.

[Laylabelle 9,534]

He's gotta at somepoint...hope so anyway!

People would have went mental, but he didn't burry his chances. Allas, he has 10x the link - up play Costa has, and so does Remy. Finds spaces, calm on the ball, has good passing ability. I confirmed this ever since pre-season, and imo he isn't that bad as people make it out. People rated Torres for making a few runs and taking a few balls from the opposition. Let's nto be too harsh on the lad.

Just saw he terrible free kick. How was his overall performance?

He made a lot of very good runs,but his shots were just awful.Ok,he also had a little bit of bad luck,but still he could have finished much better.After some weird misses,he lost his self confidence and looked very bad.Remy for me is the striker to replace Costa in the next match.

Agree with above

Just saw he terrible free kick. How was his overall performance?

Personal view was that he was much more involve in build up, tracking back, laying off simple passes to start attacks. He was managing to get to the ball faster and that allowed for a couple of misses. 3 to be precise. 1 was a shocking miss, 1 was unluckily cleared and the other he just didn't have the space to dribble past the GK, so he shot at him and it was cleared off the line by a defender. Overall a good performance, but his finishing let him down this time. Got tired after the 70th minute. IMO, Remy will start, but Falcao is a great option to have.

i think falcao was pretty good. his movement is simply brilliant. his link up play was awesome.

his finishing let him down. that baba cut back should have been a goal. but i think he would be a much better option than remy.

[Reddish-Blue 2,489]

Good game, good option to have

[11Drogba 2,000]

He would not be here if he was not a gestifute player.

[Special Juan 28,100]

Think Remy will get the nod ahead of him for Saturday as Pedro will come back in on the right side.

The Radamel Falcao of two years ago would have destroyed Lewandowski's record last night. The problem is that his confidence looks shot right now and it is a pitty that he can't find the net because he seems to be over his injury - he makes the right runs, his movement is as good as you can get from a CF and he links up very well with his mates. Biggest problem is in his head and in order to regain some of his old form I think he needs a long run with the first team, something I'm not so sure Jose's willing to give him in the next months. The Radamel Falcao of Atletico is probably done and dusted, but still, the one we have right now is a fine option to have on our bench.
