I generally like Falcao but this seems a bit melodramatic.

Quote:
Radamel Falcao's former agent claims the Colombian striker has been driven to tears by his Manchester United predicament.

United manager Louis van Gaal has insisted the decision to select him for the under-21s was not a humiliating one for Falcao, but Espindola said the 29-year-old was clearly upset when he and the frontman spoke ahead the match.

"He was a bit scared because these matches scare him -- the matches with young teams and from the second or third division. In these matches they are accustomed to fighting and going in hard. It was like this when he was injured in France, against a team from the fourth division."

Espindola was critical of Van Gaal's handling of the player.

"He is a coach that kills your confidence," Espindola said. "He destroys it. He is working with other great players that were at a great level and with Van Gaal they are now less so."

United paid a reported £6million loan fee for Falcao, as well as covering his hefty wage, and must decide whether to take up a £43.5million option to make the deal permanent in the summer.
