If Asenjo really is an excellent GK, Atletico probably wouldn't have been so persistent in keeping him previously. And wasn't he dropped for favor of De Gea previously as well??

Courtois is slightly better and De Gea was excellent at Athletico. I've watched Sergio many times, he is very good and still very young.

There's always the chance that Courtois does a WWF-style move in the 90th minute of the second leg. Score is 0-0, extra time is looming, Torres takes a shot from 12 yards which eventually reaches Cour

He nailed that penalty like it was De Bruyne's bird.

When I rewatched the save of the 1v1 I noticed he seems to get low to the ground so quickly, and I mean this in a good way Just watch Scznenzyzne-thingy against Naismith yesterday When he gets in t

Tbh whenever i have watched falcao in action live he certainly has not been that impressive.A lot of his goals are penalties,tap ins etc.I would rather sign lewandowski for 20m then falcao for 48m.

I'd rather sign lewandowski for 48m then falcao for 48m. Really not a fan of falcao. As great as he is, I don't want a striker like him

But with this being the courtois thread, it would be genuinely stupid to let him go. He can be a cornerstone in our team for the next 10-15 years if we play this out right

Cech has more experience and does somethings better than Courtois but Courtois's ceiling is higher. He's the best Belgian goalkeeping talent I've seen and I got to see both Pfaff (FIFA 100, Goalkeeper of the Year in 1987, 1986 world cup team) and Predu'homme (Goalkeeper of he year in 1994) in their primes. This guy has the potential to be the best in the world year in and year out. He's already top 10 in the world at 21.

Why don't we just offer 30 million and Torres, surely they will accept 30,000,500 no?

Torres is worth £1 mate. Don't know where you got the other £499 from, you're clearly drunk. Go home Ryan Davidson. Go home.

Atletico are ahead of Real more down to Courtois keeping them in games rather than Falcao finishing off games. Even to them Courtois seems to be the bigger asset. Doesn't that say a lot?

Not taking anything away from Courtois here... But it's more down to Juan Fran, Merida, Godin and Felipe Luis which have given Courtois very little work the past few months. Atletico has the fewest shots conceded in La Liga and actually both Falcao and Diego Costa have been magnificent.

Actually quite funny how people are rating Falcao over here. You do remember the semi-finals and finals of the Europa League last season? And the Supercup. 3 games on a high stage where he delivered big time for his team.

Is there a reason why he's not starting tonight?

Just a rotation policy like Hamilton has explained. Barca do the same with their GKs. Valdes for La Liga and CL while Pinto for the Copa Del Rey.

Courtois hasn't played a minute in EL and probably won't play one this season. Simeone is choosing Sergio Asenjo to play further in the European tournament, while Thibaut will take all games in league and cup.

It's worse than that... We'd have to pay part of his ridiculously high wages until his contract runs out....

Yes, we'd have to essentially PAY someone to play Torres... Considering his recent form, sounds about right to me. B)
