Diego Costa

[Shakez 755]

Di Marzio:

Chelsea willing to pay Diego Costa’s 42 million euro exit clause.

When Di Marzio reports it for me its 3/4 official that we're after him.

Can you elaborate?

[Special Juan 27,424]

Can you elaborate?

He already did.

[Alan Partridge 1,124]

He is the only real sensible choice

[The_Flash 1,144]

Will he work well with Chelsea? is he honestly worth the money?

[LondonPride1905 236]

35 million pounds. This is going to be interesting.

Fuck signing Costa, the person we should be signing is Atletico madrid's chief scout and our striking problem is solved for the foreseeable future. forlan-aguero-falcao-Costa.. .the consistency is ridiculous.

They do have a system of putting strikers on a pedestal, they place supporting and supplying their No. 9 highly within their tactics. They're model consists of making profits of pumping out strikers, for a team that will not play a No. 9 like that I am weary of bringing in Atletico strikers (let Torres be exhibit A).

Except Forlan and Aguero aren't the type of strikers that rely on services in order to flourish and even if your point about Torres, falcao is true, that is still no slight on the undeniable quality they showed in their prime. The point is, they consistently churn out world class strikers.

He Is reliable?

He will play two games vs barca in CL. Great chance for him to show all his abilities.

Atletico have a fantastic team setup to feed the CF. No one imagine Costa could fill falcao boots as well as he did now, except atletico management. I would bet if FT9 played in la liga and Atletico he can still break the 15-20 goal mark for them cause of the team setup.

If he does poorly we'll be on the fence about this and surely we have to be more protective of 30m in funds, if he does well and outs Barca we'll be needing more than 30m.

Or Liverpools?

Or Liverpools?

or MU or Man City or Barcelona or Real Madrid or whoever got many top strikers over the years...

The problem with us is that we always spend the money on wrong players at wrong time that doesn't fit our system, Drogba was the only success. For example if we signed Falcao in 2012, Cavani last summer, Suarez in 2011...etc they would all be banging them in for us now.

It doesn't really matter, it was always gonna be either him or Balotelli or Cavani for us. Who else would be available? Even then Cavani is probably not so only those 2 and I know who Jose prefers...Both are cunts but 1 always work hard, 1 works whenever he wants.

[Magic Lamps 11,653]

Given Atletico's interest in Torres and that they got one of the best goalie's of the world for 3 years for almost nothing, I think they should considerably lower their demand for Costa.

Release clause remains the same...

That's why it's important to not be changing managers every season. Each has a different system and a different idea.

I hope Mourinho keeps his word and stays for the long term.
