Why on Earth would Costa come here anyway? Our fan base hates him and he clearly isn't too fond of us either

I think people are just fuming that other teams are signing players you know.

I would have Costa, no problem at all. provided the fee and his wages were not too high. Imagine him in the derby game.

Sent off within 5 minutes?

 

[everton1953]

He is too canny for that. Imagine mayhem in front of the Kop when he scores the winner.

nonsense, he should basically retire now with VAR coming in, his career is as good as over.

 

[Arteta10]

He was sent off for Atletico at the Nou camp this year for saying to the referee 'I sh*t on your who*e mother'

Doesnt seem very canny to me

He does have a rep for being an tad over-excitable I will concede...

I get this mate, Gana is a very good player.

But with respect, even with the stupid market prices, if Brands cant replace Gana for 50m Euros, he should probably pack it all in.

Again, taking nothing away from Gana, but hes not irreplaceable.

That doesnt make any sense at all to me.

€50mil or another crazy inflated sum for Gana should be more than enough for a replacement.

The problem isn't finding a replacement it's finding one who could slot straight in and not require a total rework of the tactics. For example that Sangare that everyone loves could come in but he wouldn't put in the same volume of tackles and interceptions so playing the same way wouldn't work. Gana is the lynchpin of our system without the ball. Short of signing Ndidi or Kante or someone out of the blue who can play like that the system would need changing. At some price that's worth doing but I'm not sure exactly what that price is. 50m is probably enough. 30m isn't necessarily.

 

[Nymzee]

VAR and Diego Costa do not go well together.

 

[Bob Elstone]

Heard the same shouts for Joey Barton a few years ago...’imagine him in the derby!’

Crazy shouts.

 

[DanB90]

The people moaning that we aren’t signing Diego Costa, will be the same people who would be fuming if we signed a 30 year old Diego Costa on 100k+ a week.

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Diego Costa to Wolves? Oh my god... And Everton without a Striker

Cool game. I’ll have a go:

Andy Carroll to Hartlepool? Oh my god... And Everton without a Striker

 

[davidloach]

Think we should swerve the players who supposedly show up for derbies bc the last one we had ended up getting sent off after mistaking Origi’s ankle for the ball.
