Just finished watching Atletico Madrid away to Sociedad, and for the hundredth time the lad Falcao, he just gobsmacks me. This lad actually has everything, brilliant last season, it is no coincidence that his further development sees an always entertaining but often inconsistent side level with Barca at the top. He scored again, an 89th minute free kick, with pace , whip & direction, he never looks like he's breaking sweat to be brilliant. Not really something I'd usually post an article about, but the lad just wows me, everytime I watch him he does something exceptional. Just a purely brilliant footballer. Anyone else been watching??
He's absolutely phenomenal mate, I first saw him for Porto when they won the UEFA Cup and thought even back then that he'd go on to be one of the best strikers in the world. Some of the finishes he comes up with are just ridiculous. He seems like a model professional as well, can't remember seeing him dive or roll around like a girl when he gets tackled, and Atletico are my favourite Spanish team so I watch their games a lot. I really hope he stays with Atletico and doesn't join Chelsea or Citeh. Can't stand either of them and whichever of them got him would be almost nailed on for the title IMO.
He's off the chart mate, he just makes everything look so easy. This was an 89th minute free kick, in the pissing rain, canters up, bang. He's ****ing brilliant. Watched him for Columbia the other week, and it was the most complete out & out forwards display I'd seen in 15 years.
Aye I saw the highlights from that one, just awesome, his performance against Athletic Bilbao in the UEFA Cup is another one that sticks in he memory, he tortured a really well organised and hard-working Bilbao team with ease. I just wish those red and white stripes he wears could be of the Wearside variety... Oh by the way mate, thought you'd be interested to know I'm going to a St. Etienne game in a few weeks, can't wait to check the place out! Though I'm getting a bit fed up of all the French saying "ahhh Ben Arfa!" every time I say I'm from the North East like haha.
Perhaps you could arrange a kidnapping, he might not even notice seeing as he's staying in red and white stripes, Sunderland's pretty similar to Madrid isn't it? Incidentally, what was the score, Sociedad are sort of my Spanish team
Absolutely, and we have nice beaches, which they could only dream of... Sociedad lost 1-0 mate, Falcao's was the only goal of the game.
You'll love it mate, one of my fave places I stumbled upon, beautiful. 1-0 mate, was 90th minute, got my treble up too. Sociedad are shocking going forward, could cost them.
