Diego Costa

[yuvala 2,167]

Seems promising.. 32m is a good price for him.

I'm sure he'll do well.

Chelsea close in on £32m signing of striker Diego Costa from Atlético Madrid

[Pizy 17,860]

Costa to take #9 and Hazard takes the vacant #10.

[didierforever 7,349]

I agree with your point. But, how could you make that no 9 free from Torres now? It seems that even Jose desperately helpless to get rid of him, lol.

who cares about torres.give him a squad number. ba and etoo will leave so no. 19 and 29 will be free. tell him to fuck off. maybe the blondie will take a hint and find a new club for himself.

[Alan Partridge 1,124]

I don't think any player would announce it in the press or social media before a CL final

[ZanSnake 1,211]

Yes!

And hopefully the money earned for Torres and Ba's exit will add to the signing

Plus, maybe Mikel's for a new CM?

Fucking finally!

Now bring back Romelu and Thibaut - and let the Blue Revolution start

Gotze??

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Why in the world would he know and post on social media in English?!

[yuvala 2,167]

Yes!

What Torres exit ?

That guy is just...

I cant even explain it.

He's gonna stay lads, dont get your hopes up.

[zolayes 14,489]

let Torres have 69

[DanishBlue 426]

I just found out that Costa had an ACL knee injury a few years ago.

I didn't know that. It doesn't seem like it's a problem but I just hope that it will not mean anything in a few years time. I don't know much about ACL beside that it's pretty bad.

[BlueSunshine 672]

Finally, we will have a proper striker again. He might not be my preferred choice and i still have doubts about him, but if that means the end of Torres then i am more than happy to see him here.

I just hope that Courtois isn't involved in any way in this deal and that Lukaku won't be sold, because both will be very stupid moves.

[Ainsley Harriott 2,732]

Still buzzing bros. Goddamn Chelsea with a real striker and this is just the beggining.

Competition = Scared.

[The Chels 2,502]

He's only 25 so I suspect that he will naturally improve as he reaches his peak years but I think it's unrealistic to expect (like I've read) Mourinho to improve him drastically because while they are both very similar in terms of their attitude and passion, we shouldn't forget that his current manager is Simeone, who just oozes passion. I doubt Costa would be playing this well without Simeone's management, so it will be interesting to see how he does fare away from him.

[Vybz Kartel 1,613]

Surely we cant keep gettin the striker situation wrong, hope his a hit

[Nike 373]

There goes my dream for cavani.

[The Chels 2,502]

There goes my dream for cavani.

We missed our chance for Cavani last year. Buying Napoli's best player and buying PSG's best (or one of) are two very different propositions.
