Re: Radamel Falcao close to Chelsea move

by Tomwin Lannister Fri Aug 29, 2014 9:35 pm

The entire move to anywhere is mostly up to Falcao

Monaco are obviously willing to sell, and they aren't even asking a fee that will scare people away

It's up to Falcao, and imo he'll take a reasonable pay cut. If he was thinking only about money he'd just stay exactly where he is.

Get your facts right, and stop reading so much french newspapers it seems like they are hurting you. The fact that Agnelli doesn't like to spend like crazy doesn't mean that we are broke. We've just invested 345 million tis year in a new buuilding project starting from September name me a club that has done that this year?

I gave up with him, you should too brah

C'mon Falcon, come to Arsenal where you're guaranteed a start regardless of whether Giroud is fit or not :bow:

by Tomwin Lannister Fri Aug 29, 2014 9:38 pm

Nah Falcow doesn't have that french banter connection that Giroud shares with Wenger

by sportsczy Fri Aug 29, 2014 9:39 pm

You didn't invest. You STARTED a new building project of 345 million. Of that, only 10-20% is cash.... the rest is debt. It's only a capital outlay of 70 mil max.

That's how ALL construction is financed, so it's no big deal. But dont go throwing it out there that Juve are investing 345 million from their pockets Laughing

It's like people saying Madrid are investing in a 500 million Bernabeu renovation when they're going to have JP Morgan lend them 85% of it... but at least most Madrid fans know that.

Wenger could learn Colombian in a week tbh

They speak Spanish in Colombia brah. We got this

by Lex Fri Aug 29, 2014 9:42 pm

Spanish is Wengers 3rd choice language. Falcao in the bag :bow:

by Onyx Fri Aug 29, 2014 9:43 pm

Arsenal apparently don't want a striker.

by Tomwin Lannister Fri Aug 29, 2014 9:45 pm

Wenger would rather spend 5M to instantly re-purchase Bendtner than spend big on 3 people in 2 seasons imo

Falcao is off to Milan

Di Marzio: Juventus steps out of the Falcao race, going for Chicharito

Juventus is dropping out of the Falcao race but continue to make progress for Hernandez. Monaco’s request for Falcao of 12 million euro for a loan is out of the bianconeri’s reach, since they can only offer 8 million. At this point landing the Colombian striker is not feasible. But Juventus has a chance for Chicharito Hernandez, the Mexican striker could be acquired for 2 million on loan, with an option to buy set at 17 million euro. Juventus is working on lowering the costs and Hernandez is a realistic target with just 3 days to go in the summer transfer window. wrote:

dropping out of the race for the best n9 in football for 4 mil? wtf

by Tomwin Lannister Fri Aug 29, 2014 11:00 pm

GDM has been tweeting really vague stuff about Falcao

I doubt we'll get him but as far as Falcao goes it's been guesswork today from him

by Mr Nick09 Fri Aug 29, 2014 11:02 pm

David Amoyal who translates di marzio work in english is saying that the wages are a big reason why Juventus are dropping out, since Monaco refuse to pay any of it.

by Tomwin Lannister Fri Aug 29, 2014 11:07 pm

Like I said earlier this Move is entirely dependent on Falcao and how much money means to him compared to how much he wants a move

If money was easily his priority, he'll happily stay

If he feels he's cashed in enough, and desperately wants away he'll accept a fair cut

But it's probably in the middle ground I.E he's willing to sacrifice a bit, but still not enough for any clubs bar the usual suspects to want him

by Onyx Fri Aug 29, 2014 11:11 pm

We'll most likely end up signing him on loan imo. Perez will get tempted again, signing a Galactico and we need a backup CF. It would be bad for business for every other club.

by Mr Nick09 Fri Aug 29, 2014 11:12 pm

no we wont. we already said no lol. if we wanted falcao he would be in madrid right now training.

by Onyx Fri Aug 29, 2014 11:16 pm

Yeh he would, but throughout the summer we haven't desperately wanted him. Now that there's a few days left and he's pretty much up for sale, we might be more serious imo.

by chad4401 Sat Aug 30, 2014 12:15 am

mt stop it, zeal,hala and val why do you guys think perez cares if you consider benzema a madrid legend or not? especially if you guys think higs and marcelo are more legends rofl

, if his number puts him in top 5 by the end of his career he has earned the right, again stop talking about benzema its makes you all look stupid Smile

also agreed with nick negredo is an above average cf, his shooting technique is brilliant and has a decent touch too, a great option to have off the bench and even start if necessary but cr and bale indeed needs to improve their delivery when negredo is on the pitch tho

by FennecFox7 Sat Aug 30, 2014 5:28 am

I think falcao is a great player but people overrate certain parts of his ability. He's a great striker. absolute menace. But as a link up player and quick thinker.. id disagree. Gonna have to go with sport and chad here; theres no way falcao fits cr and bale better then benz

by Donuts Sat Aug 30, 2014 5:30 am

I agree falcao is getting made out to be some god recently but

this whole thing that he is a poacher or can't build up plays is dumb did you guys easily forget that diego costa goal against you guys in the copa de rey final?

not the first and last time he's done that

I agree. The only better fit for Cr and Bale was Lewa.

Maybe the Reus rumors make sense in that case hmm

by sportsczy Sat Aug 30, 2014 10:14 am

The best fit is Ibra actually.... but he's not available.

For us damn it.

As for Zlatan I adore the guy but I don't think he would be a great fit in terms of team chemistry.

For all the sh*t I give Benzema one thing I can't deny is that he's a good teammate.
