The signing of Radamel Falcao received a mix reaction from the Chelsea faithful. With some unsure of the role he will play in Mourinho’s side, questions have been raised of the signing. The Colombian was unable to re-discover some of his best form at Old Trafford last season, another worry for some fans.
However, some fans are slightly more optimistic, with the striker joining on loan and set for a rotation role in the side, fans are seeing it as a no risk loan. If you still need a little bit of convincing, here are some of the strikers best goals throughout his career.
5 – vs Barcelona
The striker showed some great pace and even better technique with a delicate chip over Victor Valdes.
4 – Athletico Bilbao
The Colombian showed great composure against La Liga rivals Athletico Bilbao. This magnificent curling effort helped Athletico win the Europa League final and set up a Super Cup match with none other than, Chelsea.
3 – Valencia
Falcao displayed some impressive strength to hold off the Valencia defenders, as well some more great technique. The thunderous effort went in with a little help from the cross bar.
2 – Real Sociedad
The striker used his pace to break away from a high defensive line from Real Sociedad. Intelligently, Falcao saw the goalkeeper coming off his line and the Colombian didn’t think twice about chipping the oncoming goalkeeper.
1 – América de Cali
Coming in at number one, Falcao displayed some great acrobatics to meet an outswinging Diego corner kick. With the corner was going away from the striker, meaning Falcao had no option other than with an acrobatic effort to meet the ball, he did just that and found the top corner.
