Falcao was in a slave contract but I genuinely thought he could rival Messi/Ronaldo after AtleticoCavani was just a mercenary that wasted his prime years at PSG
Fernando Muslera. After good performances with Uruguay in the World Cup and Copa América, looked like top teams could be interested in him, or at least a team from a top league.Instead, spend most of his carrer at Galatasaray
>>154301684Falcão really exploded his career because he got tackled by a 4th division player lolLost world cup and was never the sameI wonder how Colombia would've fared with James and Falcão>>154302816World Cup is the biggest fraud maker tournament, Muslera is solid but he was never even close to Martinez level and that's an above average keeper (except for penalties)
>>154301684Falcao got a career-ending injury by some french Ngubu. At one point he was the best striker in the world.Cavani in Serie A was incredible. He was great in PSG too. 138 goals in 200 games. People just didn't like him because I dunno.
Classic Cavani.
>>154302920>People just didn't like him because I dunno.Lavezi Cavani Zlatan choked so hard in CL while beating farmers 7-1 on the weekendseven pre-Guardiola city had a fluke semifinal CL run in 2016
>>154301684Lucas, Oscar and Coutinho
Still seething about Falcao getting heem'd by a part-time baker from a 4th division village club in a competition so worthless it doesn't even exist now a few months before the 2014 WC . He was retarded for wanting to play that useless match and his manager was retarded for playing him. He was the best striker in the world back then and Colombia would have gotten to the semis at least with him up front.
>>154303032Agreed. It's a sad case of his greedy agent fucking him over and sending him to Monaco in the first place. It's like Falcao knew that this was the end for him in the last Atleti press conference when he was in tears.
>>154303032Marco Reus also missed the 2014 WC after getting his ankle broken in a warm up friendly against Armenia (Germany won 6-1)
>>154303032That was his second ligament tear. He had one while playing for River Plate in 2006 and he looked like a different player after it. We never got to see not even 80% of his full potential.
>>154304413Gavi, who hasn't been a regular started since that injury in a qualifier against Georgia, a meaningless game for Spain who were already in the Euros.Many such cases.
>>154302933I miss this meme
>>154301684James Rodriguez peaked in the 2014 WC. Never got close to that level after
