Five pros and cons behind Liverpool’s rumoured interest in Radamel Falcao

Conclusion

Would we take Falcao at Liverpool? It would certainly be an interesting experiment. It would be great to get one over on United by proving them wrong about a player they barely used.

However, it would be a huge risk to pay the kind of transfer fee and wages that he’d almost certainly come with, if indeed we could afford it at all. If he became the latest in a long line of striking flops then we might never live it down.

On the other hand, we’re screaming out for proven quality. And is anyone with a better record realistically going to be available during the summer transfer window? We’d certainly say he’d be worth taking over Christian Benteke this summer, who would cost us more than £30m anyway.

If we could convince him to take a sizeable wage cut, perhaps with some decent performance related bonuses, then he might be worth a risk. He’s as close to a calculated gamble as we are probably capable of considering our current position.
