Falcao and Diego Costa re-united at Chelsea. Enjoyed a prolific partnership together at Atlético #cfc https://t.co/prfONZxrTm

People are actually comparing Falcao/Torres? It's a season-long loan. Torres almost finished his 5-year contract at Stamford Bridge. Behave.

As with any player, give @FALCAO opportunity to prove his worth. At worst, having him around will help Costa settle further #CFC @ChelseaFC

What if Falcao isn't finished? What if last season was adjustment to the PL and recovery from 2014 knee injury? Potential upside still huge.

Flop or not, he's got to be better than last season, right? RIGHT?
