Radamel Falcao Zarate

[r.soleofsalford]

Mods can these two Falcao threads be merged please.

ffs 1 of them must track back, shirley

Apparently FoxSports (Spanish version I think) have reported that Atletico will accept £40million + Dzeko for Falcao. Cheeky bastards! I'm a believer that Falcao is one of the very best strikers in the world and possibly the best finisher of them all but that is laughable, it's basically paying £65million for him when you factor in Dzeko's value.

is it bad that i`m still tempted!??!?! lol

Same here

The question is and always has been How do you keep 4 strikers happy?

Ade wasn't happy being behind Carlos. Dzeko won't be happy playing 4th fiddle.

The reality is we sometimes play with 2 strikers, occasionally with 1.

If so 3 top quality strikers is about all you can do. Then when injury strikes.

That's why even though he's a prick Tevez is so useful. He doesn't have to play up top. But when needed could play the lone striker role.

Balotelli is young and therefore doesn't seem to mind sitting out games.

So we have Kun, automatic starter and maybe we could play him alongside Falcao. Balo on the bench with Tevez playing wherever needed.

So although probably a bullshit rumour Falcao 4 Edin could work. Equally we could hang on to him as long as he's our second striker.


Silva Nasri (Tevez covering)
Kun Edin (Tevez and Balo covering)

Plenty of game time for everyone I should think.

who says he would be our second striker?
its pointless talking about this guy he is not going to come city, there simply are better options.

Go on then, I'm intrigued, who are they ?

Cavani or RVP
plus we already have balotelli he has to the potential to be the best, in short we really dont need strikers anyway but if we did them two would be the better options.

 

[alky313]

At some point well need to develop pairings, either Dzeko/Aguero Tevez/Balo or Aguero/Balo Dzeko/Tevez.

I know you don't care about stats, but Falcao has a better goals to games ratio than either (also better than any of our four current strikers).

RVP scored more goals in a better league and better cup competitions last season. cavani scored like 3 less in a league that is considered the hardest for strikers because how defensive it is and also performed in the champions league. stats mean nothing unless they are relevant to all of the people involved. cavani is also younger so is aguero,dzeko and balotelli.

Van Persie scored one goal more than Falcao last year and Dzeko is NOT younger than Falcao. Regarding stats, you know I am talking about career goals not just one year.

So, why do you think that Cavani and RVP are better than Falcao. You have said a lot about how he is not in the same class as any number of strikers, but you have never said why (as far as I know).

yes he is dzeko is younger than falcao, I know but them 37 goals van persie scored where in our league and champions league and our domestic cups.
I have said on numerous occasions why i think he is a risk, he is meant to be a physical striker and that is what he has used alot of the time in porto and madrid but their defences are so slack that he gets away with it but i just dont think he will have the opportunity to score them goals in the prem. he doesnt really have big pace like aguero he is not a physical as balotelli or dzeko. i just dont see where his goals will come from if he comes to the prem. still think he is a good player but not right for the prem and not right for us.

Dos Santos on his way to Athletico Madrid. Hmmmm, intervesting...

 

[Batman]

Don't know if this has been mentioned but Freddieboswell on twitter recons we'll sign Falcao if we sell 3 strikers, presumably Dzeko, Santa Cruz and Ade

Would be a dream signing IMO

 

[Super David Silva 21]

[Rammyblues]

And is Freddie Boswell a reliable ITK as a source, with a name like that I would think he is a complete fucking tosser. :-)
