Radamel Falcao Considering Chelsea Exit In January

Radamel Falcao could ask Chelsea to cancel his season-long loan in January if he remains on the Stamford Bridge sidelines.

Falcao did not even make the substitutes’ bench on Saturday, despite being fit, and the striker was one of three players Jose Mourinho did not take to Porto for the club’s last Champions League trip.

That has left Falcao frustrated and fearing for his place in the Colombia team, having scored only one Premier League goal for Chelsea.

Falcao Tells Chelsea Fans The Goals Will Come

Colombian striker promises to make a splash at Stamford Bridge after miserable season at Manchester United

One year on from his goalscoring pledge to Manchester United fans, Radamel Falcao has promised Chelsea supporters he will bag a hatful of goals this season.

Falcao Greatful To Mourinho For Having Believe In Him

Radamel Falcao has admitted he is “very grateful” to Jose Mourinho for bringing him to Chelsea and is aiming to win the Premier League title during his loan spell at Stamford Bridge.

The Colombia international has moved to the Premier League champions following a disappointing season-long loan spell at Manchester United in which he scored just four goals in 29 appearances.

But Falcao has thanked Mourinho for his show of support and is keen to repay the faith shown in him by the Chelsea manager.

Costa Happy Falcao Flopped At Manchester United

Diego Costa was pleased Radamel Falcao had a poor season at Manchester United. Chelsea star Diego Costa is happy Radamel Falcao struggled at Manchester United, as it led to his former team-mate joining him at Stamford Bridge.

Colombia international Falcao scored just four goals in 29 appearances for United after a high-profile loan move from Monaco. Louis van Gaal allowed the striker to leave at the end of the season, but Chelsea moved in and signed the 29-year-old on loan.

CHELSEA: Radamel Falcao To Wear Jersey No.9

Chelsea have confirmed that Radamel Falcao will wear the No.9 shirt for the new season. The Colombia international completed his loan move to Stamford Bridge earlier in July, but will join up with his new team-mates during the club’s pre-season tour of the United States later this month, after being given an extended holiday due to his participation at the Copa America.

Chelsea’s No.9 shirt was last worn by Fernando Torres before the Spaniard’s departure to AC Milan last August.

Ramamel Falcao - Jose Mourinho's Greatest Gamble

It acquired the reputation as a strikers' graveyard. Stamford Bridge, the place where the most potent players on the planet became laughing stocks. First Andriy Shevchenko, then Fernando Torres. Roman Abramovich's dream signings were exposed as hubristic follies.

So Radamel Falcao threatens to complete an unwanted hat-trick of supposed superstars who became sorry substitutes. Except there are two significant differences. The Colombian is the manager's choice, not the owner's. And, unlike Shevchenko and Torres, Falcao's decline seemed to begin before Chelsea even entered the bidding.

Radamel Falcao, who completed a season-long loan move from Monaco on transfer deadline day, was introduced as a second-half substitute for his first appearance in a United shirt, while Van Gaal fielded two other new faces, Marcos Rojo and Daley Blind, from the start.

Am Coming Back To Manchester United - Cristiano Ronaldo

The Portugal international enjoyed a hugely successful time at the Old Trafford side between 2003 and 2009 before leaving United for Madrid in a deal worth €94 million. Nevertheless, the 29-year-old has nothing but fond memories of his time at the Premier League giants and is eager to return to the club where he made his name once his time at the Santiago Bernabeu ends.

Manchester United Has No Identity - Mike Phelan

Mike Phelan feels part of Manchester United's identity has been "broken" after a busy transfer window and the sale of Danny Welbeck. United splashed a reported £150 million in the window to bring the likes of Angel di Maria, Ander Herrera, Luke Shaw, Marcos Rojo, Daley Blind and Radamel Falcao to the club.
The club's desperate bid to return to the top four has seen several youth products leave, with Welbeck the most notable.

The 23-year-old forward joined Arsenal for a reported fee of £16m after Monday's transfer deadline had passed, with the Emirates Stadium outfit given special permission to complete the deal. Welbeck's departure came after fellow youngsters Tom Lawrence, Nick Powell and Michael Keane left the club, either on loan or permanently, to the disappointment of former assistant manager Phelan.

TRANSFER NEWS: Real Madrid, Man City Wants Falcao, Chelsea, Arsenal In Remy War & More

The future of Radamel Falcao has become the centre of attention in the lead-up to the transfer deadline, with both Manchester City and Real Madrid bidding for his services. The striker, who sat out Monaco’s weekend draw with Lille, had tweeted early on Sunday morning (EST) that he was about to join Real - but the tweet was deleted a short time later.

Any deal with Real is only going to be on loan and Falcao’s representatives are shopping around to se if they can get a permanent deal. City then entered the fray and there are reports that talks are well advanced. To complicate matters even more, there are also rumours that City are about to offload Alvaro Negredo to either Real or Valencia. A move looks highly likely before Tuesday morning’s deadline (EST), it’s just a matter of whether he can get the permanent deal he is looking for.

ARSENAL: Arsene Wenger Coy Over New Signings

Arsene Wenger plans to be "on alert until the last minute" of transfer deadline day, but has refused to be drawn on Arsenal's targets. Wenger has been linked with moves for Monaco striker Radamel Falcao and Paris Saint-Germain's teenage midfielder Adrien Rabiot ahead of Monday's deadline. The Frenchman had said that he will not sign a striker after Olivier Giroud suffered a broken tibia that is set to rule him out until next year.

However, the Arsenal boss hinted on Friday that he is ready to move into the transfer market, but was coy over potential new additions.

Radamel Falcao Prepared For £20 million Arsenal Loan Move

"Radamel Falcao is available for a £20 million season-long loan, with sources in France claiming that the Colombian would be prepared to move to the Emirates Stadium until the end of the season.” – Matt Law, Daily Telegraph.

Tucked third paragraph in a report that Olivier Giroud is out until 2015, is a big claim from a reliable newspaper and Gooners will be very excited. Giroud’s injury means Arsene Wenger will surely bring in a front line striker before the end of the summer transfer window. Apparently its between QPR’s Loic Remy and Manchester United’s Danny Welbeck so Falcao should excite Arsenal fans.

JOSE MOURINHO: Diego Costa Better Than Aguero And Falcao

For long periods last season, it looked as if Chelsea were going to pip Manchester City and Liverpool to the Premier League crown, only to be let down by a lack of quality in the final third. Too many games had slipped out of the Blues reach against the so called lesser sides and Mourinho went public in his disapproval of his misfiring strikers.

This season, however, the Portuguese coach has little excuse as the West Londoners spent big on new recruits and brought in Europe’s most talked-about striker last season – Diego Costa.

The Brazilian-born goalscorer was once in the shadows of the likes of current City striker Sergio Aguero and Radamel Falcao at Atletico Madrid, but as soon as the duo moved on and the shackles eventually released, Costa proved his worth to the tune of 27 La Liga goals in 35 appearances.
