What if Falcao will follow!
Torres went from great at atletico to god at liverpool to shit at chelsea, and then now back at atletico reminding people about the former Torres!
Falcao went from great at porto to god at atletico to decent at monaco to shit at united and chelsea. Maybe he could come back home to porto or atletico reminding people about his former self? :D that acl injury really affected him...
He was never great for Atlético during his first spell there. He was overrated as fuck. He had good press because he'd always score against Barça (and after that would only have one or two other good games per season), and because Atlético needed their golden boy just like Madrid had Raúl... but for the most part he wasn't even Atlético's best player, even though they had a mediocre squad back then.
About Falcao, I really don't see him going back to Atlético for several reasons. One is that they are focusing more on young talents than old players. They could make an exception if it was a world class striker that wasn't past it and could guarantee them instant success (which sadly isn't Falcao's case anymore, after all those injuries), or like they did for Torres because he was an iconic player for the fans and he was coming in for free.
Also, there are many fans who are unhappy with Falcao. First of all because some say he left for Monaco for the money (they don't know about the whole 3rd party ownership thing). Second of all because Falcao has flirted with Madrid on several ocasions after leaving Atlético, and that's something that Atleti's fans don't forgive.
