With Suarez and Sturridge's form I shouldnt imagine he will get too many games unless you have injuries, more a squad bolstering purchase rather than Costa who was to improve our first XI.
Suarez and Sturridge went off the boil a bit towards end of season so he may get more game time than everyone thinks but yes obv SAS start And Costa is of course for your first 11, there's hardly anyone challenging him. Lukaku might stay though....
Lukaku is a big question mark, seems like Jose just doesn't like or rate him. Rumour he might be loaned to Atletico to sweeten the fact we're trying to nick half their team. Personally I'd love to see Lukaku get a run with our 1st team.
We all know it was a mistake letting Lukaku go out on loan last season, when the striking options were inferior to him. Ba and Eto'o were plasters, Torres was a piece of cellotape, a very expensive designed one.
http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/27704137 Costa may not be Torres II, but definitely looks like Tevez II..
This Just dont think Jose has taken to Lukaku for some reason. He was likened to a young Drogba and I thought, for that reason, he would be right up Jose's street, but that doesnt seem to have happened.
had we held on to Lukaku we might have nicked the league. Costa 'dealing' is no wonder. Ofcourse everyone knows we will be desperate for a striker.
Hope he comes good. Atletico play in a similar style to us so I think he can thrive in a team like ours. Hopefully he will continue to score goals as in La Liga. Which of our strikers do you think will be on the way out? Personally I was hoping we would dump Torres and Ba, bring back Lukaku and maybe sign Eto'o for another season. Eto'o is off the menu now with his spat with Jose so hopefully we will bring Lukaku back and one of Ba or Torres will be leaving. I personally feel its Ba who will leave but I would have prefer if it Torres leaves.
Everyone but blues prefer Nando to stay.. Hope Nando has a decent world cup and we get some percentage of the fee back.
