Stats 7,151 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 As much as I acknowledge that he has been simply brilliant for Bayern so far, he would no way near be the same at us. Would be a lot tougher playing for us, especially with the predicament we are now. I think even Cuadrado would look good playing for Bayern tbh.

It's too big 625 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 he's 24 (25 next month) so hardly the next neymar, but kenedy will be awesome player in the future if he continues how he has for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Mikel OBE 4,920 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Put Costa in an actual league and he will be average. would still be better than willian tho.Will be interesting seeing how he fares in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stats 7,151 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Like gotze and shaqiri has.Gotze is a playmaker. Shaqiri too but has some pace. When you are a direct winger like Costa you can easily look like Messi. Like I said, he has been quality but he would not be anywhere near the same standard if he was here. He would spend as much time defending as he would be attacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Costa has been Europe's best player so farI never said he was not but like I said, it is easy to say "this could have been us" but two different teams, two different leagues, two different systems and basically that.

Oscar 441 Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Douglas Costa has been the best player in europe this season.Muller and Robert are banging goals, but Costa has been the best player on Munich and Europe... Absolutely demolished wolfsburg today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Costa always shifts the ball to his left and runs after it. literally every time he gets the ball. no idea why defenders have not figuered that out yet. he is good but not as good as KDB. The only time he faced a decent defender - which are nowhere to be found in bundesliga - this season, which was vs Arsenal, he was in Bellerin's pocket all game.

Bellerin got owned first half. He improved second half when he did not have to deal with Costa who started to roam about the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_Fox_ 2,086 Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I was wrong about this dude. Last year I thought he would've been useless to our team. Even considering that he's playing in an ultra attacking side, he's showing his talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even considering that he's playing in an ultra attacking side, he's showing his talent.I think Willian is more talented. Willian in Bayern would show his real class. At Chelsea he has to work his ass off, Mourinho kills his vibe. I firmly belive that Costa would suck at Chelsea and Willian would shine under Guardiola if they swapped team.

Clockwork 1,794 Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I think Willian is more talented. Willian in Bayern would show his real class. At Chelsea he has to work his ass off, Mourinho kills his vibe. I firmly belive that Costa would suck at Chelsea and Willian would shine under Guardiola if they swapped team.Costa is literally the perfect attacker for Pep, the attributes pep likes Costa >>>>>>>>>>>>> Willian.He is directHe moves great off the ball- biggest Willian weakness, never seen him do anything off the ball. Better finisher, better in the final third.Smh i can't quantify talent, but that is disputable and who cares if Willian is more talented, if the attributes Pep look for is not the one he needs.Willian would probably be utilized as wingback tbh.
