HD3D 1,038 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Atm can't afford to have costa and mandzukic in the squad financually. So not at all worried that he will be a cfc player soon.Perfect time for us to reduce our bid and make the cunts sell him for 25m lol.

DavidEU 2,023 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 So we wait until he is coming back from holiday? Man, that would mean another couple of weeks.If World Cup players are getting three weeks off (as they have previously), then we could see Cesc, Azpi, Torres and possibly Costa at some point this week. They were eliminated 20 days ago.The one player I could see having longer than the rest is Oscar, if its true hes played 156 games in two years then give him an extra 7-10 days.

I think Diego and Cesc will both pose for Chelsea TV's camera's and have their interviews on the same day. Cesc might even have to act as a translator for Diego Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say 3 weeks is plenty of time to recover physically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidEU 2,023 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Why should Oscar need 7-10 days more? I'd say 3 weeks is plenty of time to recover physically.Because the kids poor form over the last seven months is probably due to pure exhaustion. Rushing him back isn't going to help anyone.I remember Mata had a similar situation 2 years ago having had the Euro U21 tournament in 2011 and the Olympics and Euro 2012 a year later, practically playing 2 years non stop. Di Matteo chose to give him an extra week or so off in September.--Gotta feel sorry for Atletico fans, they've ended up selling their three strikers from last season as Adrian Lopez has now joined Porto. Going to be very interesting to see their starting 11 next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jype 6,398 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Gotta feel sorry for Atletico fans, they've ended up selling their three strikers from last season as Adrian Lopez has now joined Porto. Going to be very interesting to see their starting 11 next season.Can't see them missing Adrian at all, 3 goals in 39 games simply put it is not enough and to get €11m from selling Porto 60% of the player is fantastic business by Atletico. Sure, he was a substitute in most of those games but still should have done a lot better to earn a future at the club.Atletico have already replaced the Costa - Villa partnership with the purchases of Mandzukic and Correa who will probably be their starters, now they just need to get someone to replace Adrian as the backup forward and they're set to go as far as the strikers are concerned. Replacing Luis with Siqueira and Courtois with Oblak will be much bigger losses for them than the forwards IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, having won the title for the first time in what was it, 18 years? To then go and lose the three forward players that delivered it must be gut wrenching for a football fan.Heard they're pretty close to signing Rodrigo from Benfica who will be another good option for them.
