IMO this is not an option, Guidetti has said he is not happy coming back to sit on the bench. He said he would rather leave the club than sit on the bench. I would love to see Falcao at our club ideally as an upgrade to Tevez. However I suspect with Bobby's Italian connections we have made moves on Cavani in preference.

here's a novel idea.

Why dont we nobble Athletico Madrid's scout and find out who they would sign to replace him and then buy him.

Definitely save a bob or two..

It would cut out the middle man...

If Falcao leaves they'll probably just sign his backup for Colombia who is a good goal scorer too!

TeleMadrid reporting that #CFC have offered €15m + Fernando Torres in exchange for Falcao.

He's the sort of signing that would help propel Chelsea back into title contendership.

Chelsea HAHA Fuck knows what they are doing over there.

do we need to step in then??

Well we can't keep every good player from other clubs, my thoughts on Falcao are well known in this thread and they are that if we are signing a striker this summer he would be the best for our system. :D

But say we signed Falcao, Chelsea could then get Cavani, either way they are going to strengthen and become a threat to us... but we should welcome it, I'd rather 1. City, 2. Chelsea or 1. Chelsea, 2. City than United in the equation.
