How do you solve a problem like Falcao? The Colombian was a terrific talent in mainland Europe, tormenting defenders and bursting the net on a regular basis for Porto, Atletico Madrid, and PSG, but while he conquered Portugal, Spain and France, the striker simply hasn't been able to handle England. There's no complex explanation for why Falcao has transformed into a Premier League farce, he simply hasn't looked like the hitman we'd heard all about. He was given a significant drop from his FIFA 15 rating, but after 18 appearances in all competitions for club and country, he's bagged just one goal. That's not 83-rated material. Could another downgrade be on the cards?
