Diego Costa

[mark1975]

What's the odds on Arsenal swooping in on this one?

Or Spurs, just coz.

 

[Ossi]

So we're going to play with only one striker. Costa will play when Suarez is suspended and vice versa.

 

[Buddha]

If this happens, Suarez is surely a goner.

On the other hand, say we sign Costa and Papadopoulos in the coming days - enough to convince Suarez that we're going places?

We'd have to be serious top 4 challengers.

 

[hmmmmm1]

So anyone seen him play?

Personally for that kind of money for a player in Spain, I would go for munrian (sp?)

Erm...Sturridge?

I guess it depends on what Rodgers wants. They're different players - at a very basic level Costa is a big guy and scores goals whilst Munian, good as he is, is small and doesn't.

 

[hmmmmm1]

If he scores then sign up, most of the earlier clips/articles make him sound like a cunt, don't want another player missing loads of games as that shit Work in England....

 

[Glen C]

Definite suarez replacement if true. Seems like he takes no shit, i like him already.

 

[peekay]

Aspas, Papadopoulos and now this lad. Anyone spot a pattern with this?

We are the modern "Dirty Leeds"

 

[Hansern]

Costa can play on both flanks and as a striker though. 21 mill is a lot for him.
Cant say I've been to impressed by him when I've seen Atletico.

 

[cloggypop]

Not into that spitting into the gloves then throwing it thing at all.

 

[gene hughes]

Err... how else is he supposed to get it on the other guy's face?

 

[cloggypop]

It's the gloves.

 

[gene hughes]

I know it's skanky, but it takes a certain kind of unrestrained creativity to spit into your glove and then throw it at someone.

Paul Joyce of the Express, who's usually pretty reliable on #LFC, says we have tabled a bid of around £22m for Atletico striker Diego Costa

 

[cloggypop]

Bit Spiderman really. A true Englishman would do it without the gloves.

This is on!

#LFC have bid 25m euros for Atletico Madrid's Brazilian striker Diego Costa. Full story on Echo site shortly.

 

[Hansern]

Wow, thought this was the normal bs. Is he worth 21.8 mill £?

 

[themn]

Still think Suarez is staying ?

 

[Hansern]

We need an attacker/winger regardless. Still think Suarez is staying tbh.
Maybe we can get rid of Downing now.

 

[eecheerow]

Still think Suarez is staying ?

Paul Joyce (Express) reckons he is.

WELL THAT'S ALRIGHT THEN.

 

[the count]

So, is Costa a replacement for Downing, Borrini or Suarez?

*contemplates belly button fluff*

 

[Hansern]

We're getting the most hated player in Spain and already have the most hated player in England.
Who is the most hated player in Germany/Italy/France then?

Sign'em up!

Costa is a striker.

 

[Hansern]

Costa is a striker.

Can play anywhere in attack. Played wide right all of last season.

 

[Hansern]

@BenSmithBBC: Liverpool's move for Costa has no bearing on the future of Luis Suarez. Position on that unchanged. No new bids.

 

[Jerry Laser]

Time for a riddle.

Who is 24 but looks like they are 42?

Diego Costa

He looks like Fabregas on the ROIDS

Doesn't mean that he's any good playing there. I'm not conviced to be honest.
The few times I've seen Costa play he's looked clumsy. Looks like a lesser version of Hulk.
