......but in the scenario you said of costa going to Juve....maybe that's an angle if there is anything at all to this load of bollox. 

That's the only thing that's sounds plausible...AM buying and parking him at Juventus till January...doubt if he'll play in CL for them though...

    Well maybe he would just be happy at juve, he has a problem here but might like Italy, could be Costa plus 100 million for sandro and Higuain,  there is no reason that couldn't be do-able, they get 100 million cash, plus a striker who is at least as good, we deal with our striker problem and get our man Sandro, makes a good bit of sense, we were willing to pay 60 for sandro, and between costa and a new striker would have lost 40 anyway, ticks all boxes in one swoop,  but I very much doubt it will happen.

    I'm assuming it's a Sandro Matic exchange...and Costa on loan to Juventus too...

    Costa on loan to Juve? But isn't he bound for Atletico in January? Why would Juve want him for half a season?

    Why not...a proven striker for free for 6 months? Doubt they would even pay his wages...

    Sorry but can't see Higuian doing well here...he'd be required to run about a bit...doubt we could afford the oxygen tanks...

    Scored 24 in 32 appearances last season, not bad.

    The Italian sports media reporting Sandro is staying and getting a raise in wages. I think we've missed out on him.

    As for Costa, I don't think any top club would want a player who's mentally not there and just biding his time.

    I think the whole rumour is rubbish but there again who would thought we'd ever have a female Doctor Who? 

    Don't talk about David Luiz like that

    Why can't we swap Costa for Gameirro?

    Because then Atleti will only have Torres and Griezmann upfront. Costa can't play until Jan

    The thing that's stands out to me with the whole Costa scenario is that he's a world class star who is available, literally to anyone for six months as long as you pay his wages. After that he's off to Athletico. Those 6 months he's going to be playing in what will be a World Cup year. So it's really in his interests to be at top form. And despite all of this, no f***er wants him.

    Hearing rumours from a trusted source that Chelsea could be in for Aguero.


    Very very big move if true and could also mean Sanchez to City is nailed on.

    If my trusted sources you mean the daily star then we sure are, they are picking up on a story from this notorious sh*t spouter

    Heavily linked to Carrasco of Atletico fame in this morning rags... decent enough.

    Fits the 'type' of player I'd like here.

    Cant possibly see this happening.

    A. ATM cant buy a replacement for one of their first 11 player.

    B. We dont have spots for non HG players : tibo, willy, eduardo, azpi, rudi, luiz, alonso, baka, kante, hazard, pedro, willian, michy. This is already 13 with us still having to put in players for RWB (danilo), LWB (sandro/baba), CM (matic replacement), ST (belotti/chicha/benteke/morata/PEA), 2nd ST(Llorente?). These 5 positions still need to be filled in and I dont think we are being linked to a single HG player. Simply cant afford to buy Carrasco.

    It'd be a deal in principle for January IMHO, Easily worked into the Costa deal. They value him at 45M so I don't see why Costa + 15M wouldn't seal it.

    ATM have already signed his replacement in Vitolo, who again won't sign until January.

    Easy enough to make space for a player of that talent in this squad...
