| Leading Athleti to Uefa Champions League |
30 goals in 34 appearances is something you achieve only if you are Messi or Ronaldo of this world, but Falcao has been scoring left, right, bottom and center all season long and is the reason Athletico Madrid are in a Uefa Champions League qualification spot. His goal scoring exploits have made him one of the best Center Forwards around the world. He is the hottest among the hottest stars out there in world football and come summer alot of teams will fight United for the signature of the explosive Colombian. The dynamite has scored 24 of the Athletico's 56 goals this term in the La Liga.

Position: Center Forward
Strengths: Control, Finishing, Movement, Positioning
Career Clubs: River Plate, Porto, Athletico Madrid
Career Goals: 183 (275 apps)
Goal per game ratio: 1.50 (3 goals in 2 games, wow!)
The accumulative goals scored by the two is a whopping 360 in 671 apps, which is 1.86 goal per game ration, which means one of them is bound to score in a game. There is no other partnership upfront that combined will have more goals than the goal tally of these two, and none will surpass the goal per game ratio both carry. It is going to be a nightmare for every defender if that deal goes through and Falcao is seeing wearing a red shirt with United written at it.
