35 goals in 43 starts this season. But yeah, he's obviously been shit this season from your 5 game sample size.

Did I say he's been shit all season? No, no I didn't so fuck off back in your box.

I highly doubt Costa will reach the level of the likes of RVP, Suarez and Aguero in his first season. So if you're expecting that, you will most likely be disappointed. He's good but they're better. He would have to make steps and grow. Kind of like Suarez did at Liverpool.

But I do think he'll do well. And if he doesn't... well then he'll join the highly prestigious Chelsea striker graveyard.

Going from a counter attacking team to a "tika taka" one is hard. Spainish midifielders want to play it off him, but he wants to run into the channels etc. They want to pass and move and slowly work and tire people down and thats not the way he plays.

He hasn't impressed in 120 mins of football but neither have any of the other players, the majority of whom we would have on our team in some capacity.

I love excuse he is not getting service. Like I've never heard it before. Just joking.

Well that's the difference between top strikers and the ones that need team to create for them otherwise they look useless.

Top strikers create for themselves when team plays bad and nothing goes their way.

We are not getting one in Costa and I didn't have to watch Spain to know that.

He is a striker who thrives playing counterattacking football. Eto played decent counterattacking football for us. If only he could have played it in more matches...

People say we play like Atletico... Yes, when we have the opportunity to play like them. Not when we are facing West Hams of Premier League. Even Atletico won't play their counterattacking style as much as they used to next season. It wont be long before they face many parked buses. Like Jose did during his time in Primera Liga...

They faced a fair few parked buses the difference between them and us last season is they were further ahead in team development so found a way nine times our of ten.
