Diego Costa

[BlueLyon 9,359]

People expect we will get a striker who will bang goals every game. Thats it; the expectations of striker are too big here, it makes Torres, Ba,...look even bigger flop than it is.

There are few strikers available, Costa is best of those who are available (we wont spent 70m on Cavani or whoever else).
If people would watch Costa more (not just one game vs Terry and Cahill), they would understand why is he that good.

Moaning cunt? Isnt Suarez one moaning cunt? I would prefer that over Torres anyday.

Get real, no striker in the world scores every game. We killed Messi, Cavani, Ibra, Suarez...Costa. Dont just judge him on one game, if we get him, we will be much better side.

[The Skipper 20,609]

Yeah but I got sucked into believing the hype on here that he was some kind of scoring machine...

He is. He's scored 35 goals in 45 appearances this season. As mentioned above, Suarez hasn't done anything against us either, does that mean he's not a goal scoring machine either?

Whereas Falcao ripped us to shreds... Just sayin is all

Falcao faced a rubbish Chelsea with an inexperienced manager. You can't seriously compare our team now to the team it was 2 years ago.

The team looks the same as 2 years ago? certainly parked the bus nicely

Look - it's just my opinion - but I'm not feeling this guy is the answer. Jose knows best though and delighted if I'm proved wrong

Cavani for 64 mill or Costa for 50 mill? Give me Cavani every time.

To be honest, the way I saw the game and generally Costa is that when things don't necessarily go his way (It was Chelsea btw.. not some la liga team, we were solid and it was a frustrating game) he tries to bully players, as the .gif above shows, it didn't come off as both Terry/Cahill stood firm and said "hold on a minute, we play in the premier league, we've seen bigger than you lad", he went into a shell it seemed for the rest of the match in terms of aggressiveness - this sure wasn't the Costa I'm used to watching.

Thats how I saw it anyway

Haha

I just realized Jorge Mendes was his agent. This deal is done as far as I'm concerned.

So?

[petre.ispirescu 4,928]

So?

He is the "super-agent", one of Jose's best friends and his agent too, Cristiano's agent, Falcao, Thiago Silva, Diego Costa, Pepe, Di Maria, James, Moutinho, Valdes, De Gea etc.

Cream of the crop.

[Spike 12,049]

Would look very dashing in a blue shirt emblazoned with a lion crest and large 9.

He is a tank, could be a lot like Didier Drogba for us. Holding up the ball n shit, not always scoring but always impacting a game.

He is a rough cunt on the pitch. Gave a lot of shit to Ramos and Arbeloa one match only to shake their hands afterwards and give a pat on the back.

Dickhead.

Didnt get fuck all until Eto'o gifted him one. Do not want him anywhere near us.

It's not like most of us would but the question is, if he won't come in the summer than who will?

We don't have many options at the moment..
