DidierDrogbalala Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 It seems like a pretty done deal at this point , so heres the official thread for falcao. i know must of us are not happy with this but its only for a year lets hope he can find himself back with diego costa (who was his back up 3 years ago) and mourinho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Daze Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 If he's our player then get behind him and hope it works out well. If it doesn't then it's only for a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Droogba Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Who knows, in the cold winter months we could be feeling all warm and fuzzy about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spadefx Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Good news if true. We needed an experienced replacement for Didier, and it'd be silly money for any realistic improvement on Costa. I thought he looked decent enough last season, certainly enough to suggest he's capable of doing a job for us. One year loan as well. Even if he's underwhelming it'll be hard to suggest this is move was a bad choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Piggfort Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Top 5 world player who lacked a little confidence after a bad injury last season. Physically he's the same as ever, he never relied on explosive pace and ACL injuries aren't like hamstring injuries in having the potential to affect this anyway. If Mourinho thinks he can get him firing again then I don't have the break-taking arrogance to argue with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splishsplosh Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 So much about being a striker is confidence and instinct. I'm certain he hasn't forgotten the latter, but it remains to be seen whether he still has the former. If a few early goals go in and Jose shows belief in him, then I have confidence he can do very well next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostOfDembaPast Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I don't want myself to be caught up in this 'any moment he'll come good. If not this match, then the next,' etc etc. If he comes good, then fantastic. I wait with minimal expectation. We have Diego, and hopefully, Remy to do the business.

enigma Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 He'll go down as a Chelsea legend once he helps us retain the league and win the CL, put bank notes on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsbear Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I just pray Costa and Remy stay fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigthrobberus Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 (edited) A loan deal on less wages certainly protects us from another banana skin, Personally I think we should also bring in Griezmann, Costa-Remy-Falcao is a pretty injury prone bunch and we could see a repeat of this season with oscar upfront lol..

Eight Times Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I'm getting visions of Torres and Shevchenko. I'll be a bit gutted if Remy goes though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbywoodhogan Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Thing is it wouldn't make sense for Remy to leave cause the we'd need another striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DidierDrogbalala Posted June 16, 2015 Author Share Posted June 16, 2015 Yea I don't think bamford is the answer if costa is injured and falcao repeat his manU year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Harris Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Hope he is fantastic for us but i don't think he will be. He hasn't looked the same player for over a year now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluedrake55 Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 in Jose we trust. after all he has won the lot and what do we know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icecoolguy22 Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Can't see Falcao playing the third striker role here, so Remy out Falcao in is the most likely scenario, will weaken us unfortunately. Unnecessary gamble in my view, but I have never managed a football team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfcblue Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Was shocking for Man Utd last year ... as Torrid was before he joined us. And maybe the catalyst for Remy leaving too? Dear oh dear, surely we should have learnt from past experiences. The whole football world is stratching their heads this morning. If this fails spectacularly will immediately put Jose on the defensive ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueblur Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Big move from Jose. If he scores even 10 goals he will be considered a success Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zola Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 BOOM! Might take him a month or two to get proper appearances under his belt, but he will get us goals... wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsbear Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 That would mean Costa being out which I hope doesn't happen. Costa is our number one and I hope he plays as much games as he can, I don't trust Falcao one bit. Hope I'm wrong though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelseablueboy Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 I am just about as underwhelmed with this transfer as it's possible to be ! If this is the catalyst for Remy to leave that will turn to exasperation, on the other hand if he stays and Falcao is 3rd choice (although with Jose surely wanting to prove he can 'bring him back' i doubt that) then it wont be so bad. After Torres and Sheva haven't we learned our lesson ????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Daze Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 (edited) After Torres and Sheva haven't we learned our lesson ????? £30 million/3 year contract £50 million/5 year contract £4 million/1 year loan. One of these things is not like the other, One of these things just doesn't belong. It's George Weah 2.0.
