We've been poor but seeing Santi and James link up was crazy

Well, third highest scorer in the conmebol qualifiers for brazil, and 1/3 of the total goals for Colombia, with 5 points difference between us and 5th place who know what might have happened

Because of his clubs he was only able to really show it in Europa League but he did amazing there

He didn’t have to, and the fact that James had to be top goalscorer in the sports biggest tournament to even be in the conversation shows how great Falcao is.

lol except for the back to back europa leagues he won ? what are you on

Honestly, Falcao was already in decline at that point. No disrespect, I think he probably had the highest high.

Already in decline during the 2014 qualfiers? what?

For me when you say best ever Colombian player, their performances at the National player are front and centre. It's not like James is short on goals and assists considering he's not a striker.
