James doing what he did in Brazil and then qualifying us to Russia almost single handedly says otherwise. if he doesn't get injured in Russia, Colombia makes semifinals

great first touch
Like it’s 2014
No de nuevo
If he didn't get injured I would agree
SÃO PAULO FUTEBOL CLUBE
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.
Vamos Jamesito!!!!
falcao had an even higher peak
Has never relied on speed though, pure class.
Was quite decent until Kovac came on. Then again, no one looked good under Kovac.
Absolute animal, he was well regarded in those days but if you put that falcao in a super team like man city these days people would be talking about him like haaland or lewy a few years ago.
Hes so slow but he's still got it
Has never relied on speed though, pure class.
Now that's the name I haven't heard in a while
Uruguay with the flashbacks 😩
James with his club: 😴 James with the NT: 😡
Still got it
Not bad at all
I love Falcao and put him above James, but colombia was not in danger imo of not qualifying without falcao
Definitely the eye test too he was a beast
He missed the WC with an ACL injury which basically triggered his decline
Imma be the annoying one:
Colombian*
Falcao never got to really show it in the important tournaments, that makes a big difference
Already in decline during the 2014 qualfiers? what?
How to traumatize a Uruguayan…just whisper softly into their ear….James
What a crying shame that was, had a good resurgence at Monaco but never was the same "el tigre" what an absolute monster in his prime.
Cuadrado isn't on this team hasn't been called up these qualifiers.
Insane thing to say.
Not Columbia…
Arias assist. Cincy massive
