    Falcao as a super sub can be good but they need a younger better #9.

    They need to get Icardi he is the best #9 available. I mean they can go for Kane as well but think he is mostly hype

    For $200 million I wouldn’t buy him. He is over rated because he is English. He isn’t Rooney bad but he isn’t anywhere near as good as Icardi.

    To be fair, Kane has proven himself hand over fist. Past 4 seasons where he averages 30+ goals in all competitions and is reliable to play in 40-50 games a season and he’s 25 so he still has another 5 years before he’s 30....

    200 is a big ask, I agree - then again these prices today are beyond comprehension.

    Kane is decent. But there are better 9's

    Not many. I agree with Furnaccio, maybe not worth $200 million, but prices have exploded this season.

    The saddest thing is that Zidane had a second team that could have been hitting their prime now, to lessen the pain of losing CR7, yet he parted with Morata and James and kept Mariano, Vasquez and Benzema.

    I think between those 3 they have not scored half the goals Morata and James have in the last two seasons.

    PS: quick check, Morata + James 26 in 1.5 seasons, vs 14 from Benzema, Vasquez and Mariano. Nice job Florentino.

    As much as I want to Kane for the fact he had so much hype around him because he is English he actually is a very good #9. I think Kane and Icardi are probably pretty close to each other, Kane because he is the English golden boy probably would be more expensive.

    Falcao to RM seems like a possibility for a rental for a year or two to be the back up 9, not amazing for him playing time wise but getting up there in years not playing every game isn't exactly the worst thing and he can be at a big club playing in all the competitions, either way getting out of Monaco is the right move for him I think.

    Falcao backup to Benezma? Think they want him gone too his numbers aren’t great that’s why they looking to drop 200 on Icarus or Kane.

    If they bring Falcao instead it’s because the season is over for them. Only playing for champions and will wait till the summer to get a top #9 cheaper. Benzema V Falcao can go either way and he can fight for a spot. Against Icarus/Kane he is def a backup

    Been a while since I've seen a free kick goal from him. I think that the last time was with Atletico Madrid a while back.

    No one else is stepping up

    Muriel, Duvan Zapata are lost promises as well as the forgotten John Córdoba.

    Hopefully some more CFs pop up soon in the next U20. Going to be hard to qualify if no one can score

    We need to think of after Falcao. The 3 you mentioned are failed prospects. They will make a shit ton abroad but won’t our #9

    Borre and his generation is what I hoping good things for

    Falcao is our only option at cops America sadly unless someone else pops up. Borja as well but not enough chances for him

    I said it before and I will say it again. Falcao to me is like our Klose.

    He can retire whenever he wants and he should always be welcomed on the National team.

    I will not think about after Falcao until he is officially done. The guy has a heart like no other.
