Grizzled Swedish Falkbo stepped onboard at the tailend of a prosperous career spanning the top divisions of Sweden, Hungary, Spain and Holland.
He was picked up much cheaper than expected after Grilled's relegation from the S-League, three million being a knockdown price for a defender still in his best years, who has lifted the Hungarian Cup with Hali.
"George" is at ease on either side of the defence, and will tutor Fabian Bona on his one-year rolling contract. His coverage will grant van Liere even more freedom in attacking.
Falkbo proved just how important experienced leadership is to a team, as he captained Grilled Birds to two Singapore Cup final victories against the star-studded offence of FC RaZer Infernus.
