Vague link to Jackson Martinez. He is going to cost a bomb, but he has a release clause. http://hereisthecity.com/en-gb/2013/11/25/barcelona-plot-move-to-beat-arsenal-chelsea-to-348m-star/?

Don't see how he'd fit in at Barca, Messi won't be shunted out wide.
Haven't seen much of him, don't know whether he'd be worth the 34m.
He'd be available in January though!
If Wenger thinks he's Ozil level, then we'll get him, otherwise forget it.
So would Diego Costa, he has a release clause too.
If we're feeling really ambitious, Falcao will probably be available in January.
Martinez is good but I'd rather just add 10 mill for Suarez
Suarez doesn't have a release clause though. And he is a massive cunt.
Diego Costa has a release clause? How much?
Quick Google research says its £32m ...
:o
Get him in.
Man i hope thats true. I'd lodge a 32m bid right at the start of the window and maybe even chuck in an extra quid for good measure. I wonder what the deal is with Reus' contract as well. I've heard it only kicks in this summer or in 2015 but if theres no restriction on it then he'd be a no brainer in January too. (Not saying get both, one will do).
Reus is cack
Sure he is
if that Diego Costa clause is true, we have test Atleti. Maybe even throw in a little sweetener to compensate them for losing their best player mid-season, e.g., Gnabry and Bendtner on loan.
He is. Easily nullified. He's basically a shit theo Walcott
If that clause is true then its a no brainer for sure. Wenger has been talking about him aswell.
Not seen a lot of Costa, how does he compare to Giroud in style and ability?
Despite watching a compilation of his goals, he still came across as a poor finisher...
Unbelievable pace and power. Works his ass off and scores loads of goals. He can do a lot of what Giroud does but the best thing about him is that he will hurt defenders one on one and get behind a defence - 2 important things that Giroud can't do. He's not a million miles away from Cavani in style. He's a nutter though, more dangerous than Suarez.
Is that clause up to date? Liverpool activated his clause this summer, Costa then signed a new contract (with a new clause, it could be higher now).
Suppose to be yes. Hard to believe really but then maybe they rushed into it when Liverpool bid.
