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.

does he even track back lol? no need for that at bayern as teams are giving them the ball back voluntarily.

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.

Shaqiri is as much as a winger as Cuadrado is.

Costa has fantastic workrate and uses his pace well. Costa has been Europe's best player so far

I 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.

Looks like along with De Bruyne one of the biggest transfer mistake in Mourinho's second spell.

Put Willian in this Bayern team and he will look at least as good. 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.

Except for when he almost broke Bellerin's backbone lol.

Ermm... he destroyed Bellerin. 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.

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.

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.

Agreed, still wouldn't mind him right now at Chelsea.

Costa is literally the perfect attacker for Pep, the attributes pep likes Costa >>>>>>>>>>>>> Willian.

He is direct

He 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.
