Jase 43,479 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 EXCLUSIVE: Chelsea close in on Costa as Mourinho plans £40m move for Atletico starIt's from Daily Mail by the way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chels 2,502 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Maybe it'll change if we were to actually sign him, but right now I just can't get that excited about the prospect of getting him. I just don't think he's on the level of Aguero, Cavani, Ibra, Falcao, Suarez, or RvP. He doesn't wow me or make me feel 100% confident that he'll be a 25 goal a season striker that I crave to see here.I don't think he'd flop here, but I just don't think he's as good as his stats make him look this season in a league where teams can't defend. Think he's having a very nice season but I'm not sure he can consistently be on a world class level season after season.I think it's a shame that the one transfer window in which the club will FINALLY be spending big on a striker since Torres is the one transfer window in recent times in which there are no real world class strikers available. Just our luck really! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HD3D 1,038 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Apparently he wants Barca/Madrid move, not Chelsea.Thankfully. He would be a complete failure at the EPL.Hopefully we can get Cavani instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember there was a point a few months ago when anyone can beat anyone(still sometime happens). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAM09 7,049 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Cavani is the ideal buy for us, but PSG want crazy money, or a first teamer in exchange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

didierforever 7,349 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 I won't mind this guy. But if we get benzema, I will KILL myself. Actually kill myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

didierforever 7,349 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 What? Why?have u seen him this season. Wasteful. Hopelessly so. Does make good runs but his finishing is simply not what we want. Specially in a system that is hardly pro-striker, we need someone who can bury the chances they get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specially in a system that is hardly pro-striker, we need someone who can bury the chances they get.In terms of finishing Costa is just as bad as Benzema...the only difference being Costa is having a very good season because the team is built around him.Benzema is a natural goal scorer...there aren't many BETTER options out there except Cavani.

Benzema is having a great season...benzema is having a great season??? Dude He was DROPPED for the first el-classico for BALE up top as a striker, who by the way had just come back from injury plus with no pre-season. That was the extent at how poor benzema was in the first couple of months. He did comeback strong but still doea not change the fact about him. I mean I was watching sevilla vs real, and he had 5 good chances in the first 10minutes. Its been his trend all season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the most compatible striker for our team... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
