Atletico Madrid striker http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Radamel-Falcao-c30276 believes he will get better with time - La Liga Special
Colombian forward Radamel Falcao believes that he will get better with time for Atletico Madrid. The striker has scored five goals in five league games and is getting used to life in the Spanish capital.
Falcao did not take much time to adapt at Vicente Calderon, after moving from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186. However, the prolific striker has reiterated that he is not performing at his level best and the fans will see better performances from him once he gets used to his new
lifestyle.
Speaking to EFE, Falcao said: "I am learning along with my team-mates at Atletico and we are making an outline that I use and it works well, so I'm very happy".
Falcao knows about the differences in Spanish and Portuguese footballing philosophies, and he pointed out the differences in the interview.
"Obviously you have to be very mobile in order to find space [and] to receive the ball unmarked, but I'm [getting] used to it."
The Colombian international stated that he is grateful to have made the decision of moving from FC Porto to Atletico Madrid. According to him, the move to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vicente-c36001 Calderon will allow him to evolve as a player.
At Vicente Calderon he plays as the spearhead of the attacking formation and is ably assisted by Brazilian playmaker http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Diego-c11058. The striker has admitted he is very pleased with the formation Gregorio Manzano has applied.
After shining with Porto, Falcao became the target of many big European clubs. The decision rested with the attacker himself and many were shocked to see him switch to Los Rojiblancos.
Nevertheless, this has not stopped http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Hugo-c16384 Sanchez sending words of caution to Atletico Madrid backroom staff.
The legendary Mexican warned: “Falcao wants to be a success with Atletico. He has youth and enthusiasm on his side but the club must look after him and pay him well if they don’t want history to repeat itself”.
It is still early to say whether Falcao will emulate Sanchez let alone http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-c33030 Aguero. However, his words must be paid heed to if Atletico wish to target success rather become a feeder club to European giants.
