[Raptori]

Fallcaover?

 

[rimaldo]

he's so useless with his back to goal. if he just stands still he'll get a free kick but he throws himself forward each time.

 

[Roboc7]

No idea why he came on, is a total waste of space.

 

[Todd]

Is Falcao one of the best examples in a long time that the EPL is a much harder environment to succeed in than other European leagues?

 

[Stadjer]

Shevchenko and Crespo come to mind. Atleast Falcao has the excuse of being injured before coming to England

 

[RedRover]

Is Falcao one of the best examples in a long time that the EPL is a much harder environment to succeed in than other European leagues?

No doubt. His strength was a big asset abroad, not so much now. His injury issues also won't have helped.

Total passenger so far. No idea why he was brought on.

 

[Bob Loblaw]

Is Falcao one of the best examples in a long time that the EPL is a much harder environment to succeed in than other European leagues?

No. He's an example that despite medical improvements, ACL injuries are damn hard to recover from.

England isn't a harder league to succeed in.

 

[Raoul]

No. He's an example that despite medical improvements, ACL injuries are damn hard to recover from.

England isn't a harder league to succeed in.

Very true. Its a confidence thing related to his past injury, and he's become an ordinary player as a result.

 

[Rado_N]

He's done.

 

[The White Pele]

I don't understand at this stage why we are still giving him minutes. You could forgive the lack of goals if he brought pace to the side, creativity or didn't lose every dual he goes in for.

 

[Leg-End]

Don't need to see anymore after this game, not sure why we did anyway but with RVP back there absolutely no point, he's just completely toast.

 

[Bubz27]

What a finish.

 

[El Zoido]

He's been no worse than anyone else. Our play doesn't suit him, we need to supply him with chances and we're completely unable to do so. He's not the sort of striker to create his own chances, and he gets blamed for not being a certain type of player. He'll score goals in a setup more suited to him.

 

[Rossa]

What a finish.

That's what I thought as well. Clear off side, but that was an impeccable finish. He's not been worse than anyone else.

 

[Timdbro]

He's been no worse than anyone else. Our play doesn't suit him, we need to supply him with chances and we're completely unable to do so. He's not the sort of striker to create his own chances, and he gets blamed for not being a certain type of player. He'll score goals in a setup more suited to him.

Fair enough, but he's also had zero good performances this season, so there'll be less of a tendency to cut him some slack. Understandably in my opinion.

 

[Eugenius]

Where is Wilson? I'd much rather him be playing.

 

[thejtrain]

I honestly wish I could earn that much being as poor at my job. It's astonishing. 300kpw for falling over a few times giving an impression of trying? Incredible!

 

[Roboc7]

I don't care what he would do elsewhere, for us he has been absolutely useless and we are a worse team every time he is on the pitch, spends more time on the floor than any striker I have ever seen.

 

[Raw]

Absolutely useless, it really annoys me how many times he comes on and does nothing. Fair enough, he doesn't get many chances, but is it so much to ask to play football without slipping over and falling on your face? It's just sad how much he regressed.

 

[Attila]

Despite this you just know he will play a part in the next 4 games. It's a total joke. I thought this manager was all about performances and not big names.

 

[Di Maria's angel]

Despite this you just know he will play a part in the next 4 games. It's a total joke. I thought this manager was all about performances and not big names.

Yeah... If Falcao hadn't come on, we'd have played better, as we did in that first half, right?

 

[Kag]

A complete waste of space.

 

[Castia]

He looks like a championship level striker, he's been dreadful all year the sooner he fecks off the better. £200k a week....what a joke.

 

[El Zoido]

He's been better than Di Maria today.

 

[Attila]

Yeah... If Falcao hadn't come on, we'd have played better, as we did in that first half, right?

What the hell are you talking about? I'm just saying he's been very poor and he still manages to come on every single match to do nothing.

 

[Annihilate Now!]

Yeah... If Falcao hadn't come on, we'd have played better, as we did in that first half, right?

Well considering we were worse in the second half then we were in the first...

 

[Untied]

Looked better than Rooney up top but let's not let reality get in the way

 

[Cutch]

Think i'd near rather play with 10 men

 

[Annihilate Now!]

Anyway, he's absolute feckin' garbage. One of the worst players I've ever seen play for Manchester United.

 

[Di Maria's angel]

What the hell are you talking about? I'm just saying he's been very poor and he still manages to come on every single match to do nothing.

I'll break it down for you. Rooney, who's been poor upfront since the game against Spurs, was poor again today, so our manager decided to bring on our other fit striker to see if things would change.

We were no better with Falcao than we were without, no harm done.

 

[NinjaFletch]

I can't think of a worse number 9 for us.

Even Alan Smith looked better.

 

[AllezLesDiables]

One of the worst performances I've seen from a striker. Torresesque

 

[Amethyst]

Why is he still getting minutes? The finish was nice but I really hope he's not starting at home if Rooney isn't fit.

 

[Randall Flagg]

Reckon he should go the the states be a star over there and still collect his wages

Not sure who in Europe will give him what he wants

 

[kps88]

I don't think he would have gotten so many chances to prove himself at any other top club. Should have been frozen out of the squad months ago.

 

[Di Maria's angel]

Well considering we were worse in the second half then we were in the first...

We did feck all in the first half, hence the score line. It's all good and well keeping the ball, but we played into Everton's hands as we did Chelsea's, last week.

 

[Attila]

Is Rooney meant to be any better in midfield? At least rooney can score and set up goals upfront even if he's playing poor

 

[Randall Flagg]

One of the worst performances I've seen from a striker. Torresesque

The three Chelsea failures, Torres, Shev and Crespo all looked better than Falcao unfortunately

 

[Isotope]

Each and every game he's getting better. At the art of being invisible.

 

[Annihilate Now!]

We did feck all in the first half, hence the score line. It's all good and well keeping the ball, but we played into Everton's hands as we did Chelsea's, last week.

We did even less in the second. In the first half we actually made 2 or 3 decent chances.
