Diego Costa

[Cule4life]

Diego Costa is a little overrated imo. If Atletico can get Courtois and some cash they should take it and run. But I would prefer if they were able to keep him but that doesn't seem likely

Bit of an enigma for me. He's impressed me overall this season but that was mostly in the first half.

Lately he's been rather disappointing.

It could be the fatigue. Nothing odd though. Atleti has been beyond expectations with their squad depth tbh.

He was tripple marked by Cahill, Terry and Mikel... He shouldn't be blamed here. Koke, Suarez and Garcia were very poor imo

I agree. Koke specially disappointed me big time. Such a terrible time to be this terrible.

Do you guys think he'd be good at Barca?

I never think about that as long as it's Messi playing in the middle of attack. I just can't imagine how Costa is gonna fit into this Barca.

 

[BarcaGirl]

Costa got the Messi treatment tonight.

He is a little overrated. Atletico should sell him for 40m and get someone like Jackson Martinez.

inb4 Costa flops and Villa scores 30+ goals next season. Kinda like Falcao and Costa...

Would be hilarious tbh

 

[Armando929]

Villa would thrive a bit more at Atleti if they wouldn't just cross long balls all the time. Their style of play suits a big striker.

But if Costa does go to Chelsea, I wouldn't be the least bit shocked if he flops there.

Diego Costa for Torres + Lukaku?

Costa scores the majority of his goals by getting in behind the defence and racing through, he is not all about long balls into the box.

He is not technically the best but is effective against both defences that sit deep and defences that push out.

 

[PaulTaylor]

as long as he doesn't go to chelsea, I don't think him and Mourinho would have a great relationship long term and would end on him leaving after a season. but should try get Lukaku and Courtious in an exchange deal

He applauded Chelsea fans at Vicente Calderon when they were singing "Diego Costa, see you next year" . It was after the match.
