COLOMBIA legend Falcao reckons he could form a lethal partnership with Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos after he impressed for his country.
The Gers hitman won plenty of plaudits after coming on as a second half sub as the South Americans eased past Japan on Friday.
He was was hailed as the future of Colombian football by Bayern Munich playmaker James Rodriguez and former Manchester United and Chelsea star Falcao admits he's excited at the prospect of playing with Morelos.
The all-time top scorer for Colombia said: "Alfredo is an intelligent player and you could see that when he came on as a sub.
"We have done a lot of work on the attacking side of the game and it helps when you have a player of Alfredo's quality to bring on.
"I think he has really grown as a player by competing in a tough European league. We have a lot of players who are very professional and Alfredo is certainly one of them.
"We've had a few days working together and already we have formed an understanding.
The important thing for us is to build steadily towards the Copa America because we are very confident we can make a big impact in it this summer."
Seriously though, amazing to hear OUR player bigged up by some of the biggest names on the planet, international team mates or not!! He should be lauded in our country as should we for having such an exciting talent but its a constant negative narrative intent on driving him away from us!! Why? We all know why!!
No Surrender!!
WATP!
