Talk:Radamel Falcao

message: It says he surpasses Cristiano Ronaldo. He doesn't. 70 in 91 games isn't better than 225 in 216. The same with Messi - he's got 327 in 395, which works out at 0.83 goals per game. 70 in 91 is 0.77 per game.

message: this is FALCAO"S article.. no need for a retired persons comment. everyone knows he is a world class striker.. dont try to put the clown guardiolas name in front there...  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.237.211.140 (talk) 20:09, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  why is guardiolas name in the front 

message: While I have no doubt in my mind that Falcao is indeed one of the best footballers in the world, there is way, way too much hyperbole in the opening paragraph. It is very easy to find a reference/source somewhere on the internet describing a footballer as such and such. The opening paragraph should consist only of achievements, awards, and FACTS. If not, we're open to any sort of exaggeration from Youtube fanboys. The same principle applies to the pages of Messi, Rooney, Ibrahimovic, Totti... whoever. --Tomsega (talk) 10:19, 26 October 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Hyperbole and exaggeration 

message: Its title indicates that he was transferred to Chelsea when he actually moved to Atlético Madrid, and the Guardian article it links to says the same  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.173.124.52 (talk) 05:21, 10 December 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reference 41 - Incorrect Title at Bottom of Page 

message: Just removed a welter of peacock/PR language fr/ the article. I know Falcao is a great player, and it's likely that some of what I removed can be referenced. But it read like something written by his agent or some fan. So it's gone. Tapered (talk) 20:08, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: Wrong udpated and vandalism

message: Radamel Falcao played for Millionarios professionally, but in the artical it says he was only trialed, then uses an artical refering to a friendly exhibition between Athletico and Millionarios when he plays for Athletico, and he was allowed to chose to play as Millionarios for the friendly, but he said no. However this does not say he did not previously play for Millionarios as a professional because he did and also as youth. [[ Atban3000 (talk) 13:33, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

message: His height needs to be changed to 1.78m which is 5'10" flat. From the screen he looks this tall and there are several sources who back up this height.

message: How exactly is Falcao the "first player in history to win 2 consecutive European tournament titles with two different teams"?
For a start, Samuel Eto'o did that with Barcelona and Inter in 2009 and 2010 and I'm sure there are others down the years.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.171.30.14 (talk) 01:30, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Individual honours 

message: "Falcao made his debut for Lanceros Boyacá in the Colombian Categoría Primera B (second tier) on 28 August 1999 at the age of 13 years and 199 days, thus becoming the youngest debutant at that level of Colombian professional football."
Given this statement, why is the Primera B club not among those listed in his career stats? Kenallen (talk) 17:12, 8 June 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Club List 

message: Page states that Falcao is the "First player in history to win 2 consecutive European tournament titles with two different teams". This is false, portuguese player Paulo Sousa won two consecutive Champions Leagues for different clubs. He won them in 1995/1996 with Juventus and in 1996/1997 with Borussia Dortmund. Marcel Desailly and Samuel E'too have also done it.

message: Please change in radamel Falcao: "Age concern
In July 2013, it came to light that Falcao's former school, Colegio San Pedro Claver de Bucaramanga, held a registration document that indicates he was born in 1984 whilst his place of birth is actually the Colombian capital of Bogotá." to "A debate over the true age of Colombia star Radamel Falcao was ended as local press published a copy of the striker's official birth certificate from the Santa Marta municipality where he was born on February 10, 1986, proving once and for all that he is indeed 27." There is no need to create an age concern section in his personal life part of the biography.
