Diego "the guv'nor" Costa

Featured Replies

On kante, Leicester has something we don't though next season which is CL.. Their fans would argue that if kante is so ambitious, he would use CL to impress those so called bigger clubs you mentioned.. ok maybe he likes us or maybe he simply likes london but leicester fans have a case to feel hard done..

On Costa, this 1 is more clear cut case that you can not possibly have the right to question his loyalty based on your own fomula.. Atletico Madrid went to 2 CL finals in the last 3 years.. They certainly have better chances than us and speaking of domestic silverware, well they've been in top 3 for the last 5 years or so.. Not too mention both the club and costa are both spanish and Atletico madrid fans have more case to talk about loyalty seeing that's the 1 club costa pretty much came from and spent the most of his time there.. Compared to us, we're in pale comparison to them at the moment unless you wan to include history backdated to 10 years ago, surely you don't wanna sound like the dippers, do you?

5 Club Atlético de Madrid ESP 120.999

That's the UEFA club coefficient released in July. Despite Atletico's recent success in Europe, they are still beneath us. Says it all.

Shame but the moment he starts bringing the club down, he's gotta go.

 

Big fan of Diego and it's a shame that he might go. I don't know where mind you.

 

One of those things, he's just a spoilt brat by the looks of things but Ramos talking like he did If the lip reading is correct shouldn't be allowed.

 

Really ain't all that keen on Lukaku coming back need a more prolific striker imo.

If we did sell Costa, what sort of price would you be happy with?

Given that Higuian went for £75m, I would be looking for the same amount. Any lower and we would look like fools especially that Costa is 2-3 years younger.

We better not sell him for £50m. Surely Ath Madrid can't afford £60-80m?

Dude higuain scored 36 times last season!

Higuain turns 29 very soon ALSO he was scoring 36 goals in a poverty league where the game is so damn slow, I still rate Costa as a much better striker than Higuain and If Spain took him over Morata they'd likely have done much better assuming he was fit.

probably the bullsh*test sh*t i've ever seen

Dont think it is,lip readings are normally spot on in spain,why do you think you see all the players with a hand over their mouth

I never knew so many people were so clued up on the history of expertise of Spanish media lip readers.

Who knew?!

Some people just watch other football than the premier league

There is too much talk at the moment about players going out rather than players coming in. I don't really want Costa to go, it's not easy replacing strikers. We have had a hell of a poor run with our strikers in recent times, i don't really want us to lose one that is actually good after only 2 seasons.

Why backdated 10 years, we won the league 1 year ago. The desperation by some fans to talk our club down at every opportunity amazes me, it's so bloody weird.

 

maybe they are gooner fans in disguise :Troll_Face:

except if simeone want to play two strikers up front i don't think atleti is interested in costa anymore, which is a big gambling situation for us

 

maybe he'll accept his painful fate (earning millions of money by playing football) and just be a straight professional like de gea,

or he can be a grumpy petulant child wanting to stage another coup like with jose

 

idk if there are non english big clubs that are in need of a striker right now, napoli?

How old is diego costa? How many top level he has? We're not in CL next season and atletico madrid is.. Given the fierce competition in EPL, there is no guarantee we'll be back in it, at least not as staightforward as atletico in laliga so why should costa risk his chances?  If he wants to leave, it's totally understandable.. at the end of the day, he's moving BACK to atletico madrid, not some chinese team or MLS abroad..

 

Oh btw, I suggest you recheck your source on that UEFA coefficient thingy..

you mean winning the domestic double last season? as if that has any relevance to the context being addressed, duh..  It's about chelsea vs atletico madrid which CL being the measurement and apart from 2012 triumph, atletico madrid clearly having the better run if we only include recent times..

 

you have the tendency of being a miserable bloke who desperate of playing 'the world against us' card at every opportunity.. How many times you ended up moaning yourself when some people talk about the club's drawback in the 'forum'? I believe that you lost count..

You just told someone to check their source and then linked them to a wikipedia article..  :good2:

Mate Costa almost nil to zero chances of winning trophies at Atletico, can bodly say we have the chance of winning the treble before AM does of winning a trophy in Spain or Europe. Ambition has nothing to do with it, probably home-sick, anything else is unprofessionalism, which won't surprise me from a character like Costa.

Next don't check the coefficient releasedfor a particular season as we are bound to have a low score, check the cumulative as it tells the general story of club successes over time. Here you are,

What?! Atletico is constantly either challenging either in La Liga or being in CL final. We were tenth last term. Footballing-wise they are miles ahead of us.
