Diego Costa

[Mostar]

Oh ok

[danperkins]

Oh ok

i've become sarcastic about the whole situation....can't help it

[frank the tank]

hey Mostar, what would you make of Costa as a signing?

Personally, i think he would replace downing as opposed to Suarez. He would play a bit like Kuyt would have for us in that he wouldnt be our main man but would chip in with, say, 10 -15 goals a year as well as a few assists.....

Will be interested to see how the rest of the window goes but the people laughing about Darren Bent shouldnt laugh so loudly in my view - he might end up being the back up to Sturridge that we are left with at the end of the window!!!

My fear is that any selling team will also now know that we are desperate for reinforcements..... so we will get double-ended in the transfer market for the rest of the summer - in that we probably won't get adequate value for Suarez as well as the fact that we will pay over the odds for his replacement!

Ah bollocks to it, let's just ask Athletico if they'll swap him for toothy.

[Tee]

I have an idea.....Costa plus Turan in a straight swap for the goofy rat.

...I'd suggest you send that on email to Ayre immediately.

I've heard he can even pick up email riding one-handed on his Harley.

Just cannot get excied about this guy at all. A few more videos have surfaced and he looks pretty gash in all of them. I've never seen a compilation where getting fouled is considered a highlight before

Add to that, this guy is pure filth. He'd be Suarez mk2, and personally I just feel like we could really do without all the clamour these players bring with them. ****ing headache, so they are.

If we're going to be selling Suarez then I'd hope we'd be reassessing our striking targets in light of a bigger budget. A cheeky bid for Jackson Martinez maybe.

In all of the clips I've seen of him he looks far dirtier and a much bigger cheat than even Luis. He really does. Sadly he doesn't seem to have Luis's insane skills. I can't see how we could possibly justify bidding nearly £25m for him personally.

There must be better out there for that sort of price

[TheElephantMan]

I don't want us to sign him either. Dirty get.

[Mike]

I've seen quite a lot of him last season in La Liga and i really like him.

He works hard, bullies defenders and is very direct. His goal record is not bad, considering he tended to play out wide most of the time. He would suit the EPL perfectly.

If we don't get him I'll be a little gutted.

Jackson Martinez

Jackson Martinez

That's the one we should be after. He could be an immense signing.

[rudedog]

Didn't we have the opportunity to sign him before he moved to Porto?

[Mattshark]

That's the one we should be after. He could be an immense signing.

Great finisher, but lacks alround play IMO.

[Hemingway]

He's an out-and-out striker anyway, no? Given our other targets, seems we're more looking for a second striker/wide forward. More a Ljajic (and yes, he's just as much a pipe dream as Martinez).
