He could play like he did at Monaco and they would still win the league.
I haven't seen him in France but the Falcao of spain was one of the, if not the best finisher in the world. Even against Chelsea he ripped them a new one

If Falcao plays like he did at Monaco, Benzema has nothing to worry about.

? Are you being sarcastic because he's been injured for so long?

He played just 17 games for them scoring 11 goals before his injury. This season he's played 3 games scoring 2 goals. His league record across all his clubs is 208 league games with 140 goals.

He's a goal machine when he's fit. Real Madrid will win the lot with this fella.

I still think Benzema is the better option to play with Ronaldo and Bale. No ego, team player, creative.
He also misses alot and Falcao doesnt have an ego issue. He is a team player but not like your RVP, Suarez and etc.

He is an upgrade on Benzema. Falcao's only issue is how bad this injury affected him, hence it being a loan

I'm not being sarcastic. He was really unimpressive at Monaco. Good start last season, but he soon started to decline, before his injury. Riviere (you know, the guy who signed for Newcastle) was as good as him last year.

Are those stats wrong then? It says he only played 17 games and scored 11 goals? This new season, 3 games and 2 goals. That's the sort of decline we need with our strikers.

Riviere played 6 more times than Falcao and scored 3 more goals. I still think Newcastle would've preferred Falcao over Riviere though ;)

Sure he scored a good amount of goals, but he didn't do much in his team's game. RM don't need goals, they need a striker who can play with Ronaldo and Bale.

Fucking Real Madrid, they really just buy whoever the fuck they want, they are worse then PSG the way they stockpile talent. Benzema and Falcao for 1 position, just no need.

He played 20 games and scored 11 goals. He was out for a large part of the end of the seasn (which is why he did not make it to the WC).
