I know Bale has a bad injury record lately but that would also mean his price would come down.

Now from what I can see his injuries have all been unrelated but hes had 3 calf injuries recently. I would imagine with the calf this is because he hasn't fully healed before returning.

Hes world class, is incredibly fast and its unlikely for Juventus to get this type of player in normal circumstances. The pace from Costa and Bale alone would make us one of the most threatening teams in Europe. Probably two of the fastest players in world football, they would stretch the opposition so much that Dyabla would have a field day.

Anyone expecting him to be a Neymar like player set the bar too fucking high.

He won't get that many goals or assists but almost every time he touches the ball he either creates them himself or manages to open space for opportunities.

Which means he can be a constant danger to any adversary. His skill set is something we undoubtedly need.

To think that I was laughed at back in September for suggesting that Costa is a better winger than Mandzukic. :lol:

It tells you something about how little some posters know about football when they don’t even understand why a player like Costa is more useful on the wing.

The Flash has been one of our best players this season. :tup:

Plenty of people doubted him actually. They even portrayed him as a stupid player with lack of intelligence. From what I have seen so far he as been the absolute opposite:

Smart and quick decisions with the ball and completely fearless. Huge signing for us.

He doesnt even need to be a neymar. WHo would but neymar himself?.

Costa is doing exactly what it was required: Being a fast winger who could open the game and make plays. We borught him to not use tall Cfs as wingers anymore and im so happy this is finally taking shape. We waited too long to accomodate costa
