Maybe it's a coincidence, maybe not. It's what you make of it. No one can tell me Costa actually wanted/wants to go to China. You don't know that, I don't know that. He only admitted he desperately wanted to join Atletico in the summer. He didn't even have to say that publicly. Unionjack 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Torres you just couldn't help but laugh. With Costa it is frustrating because you know he could bury those chances... Probably has himself to blame for setting the bar high with his early season performances, the China fiasco probably had an effect but I do remember him tailing off in 2014/2015 as well where he got stuck on 18-19 goals. Seems that history is repeating itself. As long as we win the league I couldn't give a toss though... Fernando 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like someone said before: you can't be in top form the first half of the season and suddenly lose your teeth the second season. And it all happened after Conte dropped him for the Leicester match. We all know what Costa is like, same goes for Hazard and Fabregas: if they get into a row with the manager they drop him like a brick and play like shit. The 15/16 season proved that with the whole them VS Mourinho fiasco. Diego has gone back to fighting with the opponents defenders, falling on his arse all the time and bottling massive chances. He needs to go in the summer. Well I don't think any striker out there that we could get will solve this problem. Inconsistencies. This is why if we go for lukaku we should not get just him. Lukaku needs a deputy and I can see why morata is being linked because in games like this what was needed a poacher. Morata fits that role. Today a llorente or even giroud would be great options to come from the bench. Because it's this sort of games where is won by a poachers goal or header type of goal. Despite all the shenanigans of Costa for me he is far better then lukaku and would like to build with him in getting someone like morata. But if he wants to to China for real then there is nothing we can do and sell him Let's just hope that if we get lukaku is not just him. Because we will have the same problem we are having right now. Blow hot and cold. We need that deputy to be either our poacher or header specialists ala llorente/giroud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're still waiting for the day where we can have 09/10 Drogba up front every season. Even Didier was very inconsistent. You're right, I genuinely can't think of a fully consistent striker in the Roman Era. What a shame. We have made lots of terrible purchases. Mutu, Crespo, Kezman, Torres, Schevchenko just off the top of my head. There is a lot of money in the Premier League but it's all chasing a lot of mediocre players. The real top quality ones go to Madrid/Barcelona/Bayern. Look at the strikers of those teams. They only buy the cream of the cream in terms of talent while we waste our funds on dross. Batshuayi is another pointless signing. Other leagues are probably having a laugh at the Premier League teams and the funds their throwing at donkeys. Stones 50m pounds. Martial 60m pounds. And there was a story that Lukaku and Barkley are going to go for 100m pounds combined. The fact that someone can suggest this possibility without being ridiculed shows how crazy things have gotten. Summer transfer window is crucial but I hope they don't fuck it up on poor players. Styles and The Skipper 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't include Martial in there because he has top ability, just being massively wasted at United and Jose the Youth killer. In fact, I'd take him at CFC, would be fantastic with Hazard.

Lukaku and Belgium struggled against Greece and only got that equalizer because Greece were sent down to 10 men. Apart from that he did not make an impact.
