Falcao not feeling any pressure at Chelsea

Colombian striker Radamel Falcao has revealed that he is enjoying life at Chelsea and feels free from the pressure that dogged him last season.

Falcao struggled to make an impact with Manchester United last term but told The Sun that he is feeling a lot more assured in west London on his second season-long loan away from French club Monaco.

Falcao said: "I feel very well, free and with a lot of confidence.

"I don´t feel pressure to score. Strikers always want to score goals, clearly, but I´m calm. The goals will come and we have great strikers in this team."

Speaking about his fellow strikers, Falcao said: "Diego Costa and Loic Remy are excellent finishers. We hope to have healthy competition and, after that, the coach will decide."

"The more games we play the more the team will grow and we will be ready to fight this season."
