    Costa now moaning AM not paying what we want! He's going to alienate both clubs at this rate. AM can't play Costa till Jan so under no pressure to buy him yet so want to get a steal. Wont happen. Costa will ultimately accept a move elsewhere within 2 weeks unless AM significantly improve their offer.

    Chelsea should tell AM it'll be another 10 million on top in January and see if they still want to play hardball.

    I'd tell him to get ****ed and to make up the difference himself if he wants the move that much.

    Indeed.
    Has he not been watching the transfer market this season.
    A 20 goal a season striker goes for around £60m these days.
    If he wants out, then AM will have to pay the going rate.
    **** can't go AWOL and go on strike then expect us to bend over backwards to give him away for pittance.

    In fairness, Conte told him he was done via text, so given he's a loose cannon what the **** was he expecting from him?

    This is an issue of Chelsea's making.

    Exactly, the seller dictates the price in this case. You can't just tell Atletico you're buying Saul Niguez for £20m, you'll pay the £60m or whatever it costs, Costa is behaving like a sour little kid, I really like the guy as a footballer even with all of his nutjob antics, but he's being a **** here. Conte's fault in the main, if you wanna sell a player, you don't isolate them.

    I accept that.
    But the professional thing to do is report back to the club, speak to the manager and return to training until such time that a club makes an acceptable offer for him.
    Not go on strike, then whine like a bitch because Chelsea want to get the market value for him.

    He'll come back, as he has to. You'll have to send him out on loan until at least Jan imo, as he's going to refuse any permanent deal aside from to Atletico, he's got you by the balls

    He'd probably take that over 10th.

    He obviously knows that Atletico want him, he'll have no doubt already have agreed terms with them ffs.

    So now he just sits there and refuses any potential moves put to him, and insists that he's only going to Madrid in either Jan or next summer.

    Conte ****ed up big time, another massive ego manager who's chopped off their nose to spite their face.

    Happens with every deal mate, it's only ever an issue if someone is daft enough to get papped doing it.

    He can't play for AM until January so sitting stubbornly makes no difference to Costa either

    Edit; well, it does as he won't be getting paid whilst refusing to play
