he was obviously past his best when he came here, but he still did a job.

Current Birtles would have been a improvement on Falcao. He was horrific, clearly nowhere close physically to where he needed to be. El Tigre, squinting, falling over and cool hair, that was Falcao.
Fair dues that he got back to a decent level at Moncao because he looked finished at Utd.
