Diego Costa

[Mechromancer 262]

I don't believe this story anymore than the next guy. BUT he wouldn't be the first Spaniard that went abroad and wanted to go back home..

But he is brazilian, mate.

[Jase 43,479]

Didn't really follow the victory parade the other day but from what I've read, Costa promised to score 30 goals for the club next season during the parade. If he's unhappy with the weather and food(seriously?!) as Marca claimed, he wouldn't have said that, would he?

Not that I believe the story one bit but yeah.

Haha touché, but you know what I mean. He identifies as a Spaniard, by opting to play for them, and so it's a similar tale of "going home".

It was Cech who said it. Fans were chanting for Diego but he was just smiling at the back and didn't take the mic from Cech.

So Cech said "he wants to say he'll score 30 goals next season, but he can't speak English"

Cech? Uh oh. Panic stations!

Why?

[Jase 43,479]

Why?

Think your sarcasm detector isn't working.

[Amblève. 4,995]

Think your sarcasm detector isn't working.

Your sarcasm has reached Sheldonian levels, JJ.

You're just crap.

Marca are an agenda driven news outlet. I thought that was common knowledge by now.

Report: “Unhappy” Diego Costa wants to leave Chelsea, return to Atletico Madrid

Guys, please tell me this article is BS...

Obviously it's BS. Why wouldn't it be BS?

Club dismisses reports Spaniard is seeking return to his old team.

Meh if he leaves we can sign replacement, I am convinved he is semi-permanently damaged his hamstring anyway, if we monitor it well he can be like Robben nowadays or not and he could turn into our Torres post Liveprool move.

Always can go for someone like Lacazette who imo will immediately agree to move to us if we signal our interest, or just get someone like Grizemann in return who shows he is full of goals as well anyway.

I don't really care one way or the other, but I believe Chelsea will be far better off with Benteke as the top striker in the long-run. Diego isn't a bad guy, but I have suspicions about his fitness and ability to play in the cold --nevermind his dirty tricks against defenders who are stronger than him. Of course, I would rather have a stronger striker too.

Lol

Recovering in 4 weeks from a hammy injury means he did not do it or he would be out far longer than that.

By the sound of it the club are strengthening his muscles anyway. No worries.

[Liquidator 5,176]

The Sun and the Express reporting it now as well. All reputable sources of course

[chrismada9 1,948]

Diego wants to leave? WHAT?

I've only just found out about this... I find it surprising to be honest!
