Peckerman: Man Utd striker Falcao fit for Arsenal clash

Colombia coach Jose Peckerman believes Radamel Falcao will be fit for Manchester United's clash with Arsenal.

Falcao sat out Colombia's 2-1 win against the USA at Craven Cottage on Friday night.

Pekerman said: "There is no doubt he is in optimal condition. He's recovered very successfully. He done everything perfectly. This is a small muscular injury, it is different to the knee injury before the World Cup.

"He's in a good condition and could be ready for Arsenal. He hasn't even started yet. He will be one of the best players Manchester United have had and will break a lot of records in England."
