With the 2011/12 La Liga season nearing its end, Atletico Madrid striker, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Radamel-Falcao-c30276, wants the complete support of fans as they fight for a fourth place finish.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vicente-c36001 Calderon-based outfit currently stands 8th in La Liga, five points adrift of a UEFA Champions League qualification berth with 10 fixtures remaining in the season.
Atletico Madrid need to straighten their act if they want to participate in the elite European club football extravaganza.
In their next La Liga fixture, the Capital club take on the challenge of Real Zaragoza at La Romareda as they travel to Aragon.
Colombian striker, Radamel Falcao, who has enjoyed a prolific season to date, implored the fans to rally behind the squad as they battle for the 4th place.
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Porto-c39186 striker admitted that Los Rojiblancos’ stars have flattered to deceive in their recent games, but believes they will up their game towards the end of the season.
"I try to isolate myself from the comments.”
"We know what we want to do and we do not care what people are saying outside the group.”
"And it's not really my place to judge people who come to the stadium. We just want to play at the top of our game and let the results speak for themselves.”
"What is true, though, is that we need the fans to support us if we play well or badly."
Falcao added that he feels good in Madrid and hopes he can propel the team to greener pastures with his performances.
“Things have been improving for the team and, personally, I have tried to help the team by scoring goals," the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/River-Plate-c40368 striker explained. "Above all else, that's what I was brought here to do.”
The 40 million Euro signing has scored 25 times in 35 outings for Atletico Madrid so far this season, and reflecting on his goal scoring heroics, Falcao commented that he wants his tally to mean for something and not go wasted.
He added that failure to achieve their start of season goals will be a disappointment and his personal total would go in vain.
