What is so good about Costa? I've only see YouTube clips of him (which, to be honest are a bit underwhelming) so don't really get the hype.
He's strong, he's fast, and he's aggressive on and off the ball. He's not a genius by any stretch of the imagination, but he's quality. Basically, think of a much better version of Giroud who is tough as nails.
Unbelievable power and pace. Can finish and dribble. Isn't particularly spectacular or anything but he's a nightmare to play against.
Sign him and Giuseppe Rossi, get rid of Giroud. Proper firepower so that we can mount a serious challenge on all four trophies next season.
Would be all for that. Giroud has his uses but ultimately he's a striker who nobody expects to score when the big chance comes and can't be relied on whatsoever against good sides. If the rest of the squad is in decent shape this summer then we should look for a second quality forward (presuming we get a first)
This guy would rip shit up in the Premier League:
I'm desperate for us to have some proper South American players in the side.
I'm with you on that
I hate Cavani for going to PSG. All he needed to do was to wait a month and he'd be playing in a proper position in a proper team in a proper league.
Maybe De Laurentiis pushed him towards PSG? It's a pretty legit project to be fair, can't blame him.
The project is legit, Ligue 1 is not. He's basically put his career on hold for the next two years for a huge paycheck. Same with Ibra. Bloody moron. Zlatan would have a legitimate claim at the ballon d'or in a proper league with the football he's been playing for the last 2-3 years. Instead he's wasting his prime playing in a blueberry league against teams like Lorient, Ajaccio and Evian Thonon Gaillard.
PSG could win the CL though. Best CB in Europe, best centre forward in Europe, top class midfield three.
I can think of worse places than Paris were I flush with cash though.

They could but they probably won't. They don't get tested enough. Suspect they'll fold again as soon as they face a big team. Of all their opponents only Monaco would make it into the upper half of Premier League.
Everytime I see this thread I think-
Those beers in the spa have gone to your head biggus...and your loins!
I was thinking if Matt Flamini would be starting the next game.
Nicolas Anelka?
Giroud wouldn't have scored the goal he just did.
Exactly. 😆 I wasn't at all serious I'm just very attracted to strikers that score goals these days..
Anelka with an antisemitic gesture to celebrate his goal. Sad, but that boy is a complete headcase.
