Obertan can screw off, Bebe will do the same or make it as a striker, Park is versatile and will always get games because of his work rate, Valencia as well. It's never a bad thing to add a young talent on the rise like this

All sitting in the top row together?
They look like footballers but you're right, none of them look like anyone on our books.
Hopefully true, i was dreading the thought we would end up with Ashley Young!!
We have absolutely no one who can take even a half decent free kick. So if Costa is a specialist then that's another bonus.
Hargreaves
Right forgot about him. He's great but obviously never fit. Berba used to take some brilliant ones as well at Spurs but he never tries here. Nani/Giggs take some really poor free kicks.
Carrick took a couple of good ones at Spurs too.
Seems that being a decent freekick taker for Spurs isnt considered pedigree
Berbatov scored a few goals at Spurs as well off freekicks, I remember one from that really good game they had v West Ham 4-3 2007
Is he in this shot? Top left?
Are all these Brazilian looking people his agents? feck, that's some team.
I was being sarcastic mate
Well, I think that is Morrison there
things go on that we have no idea about. we may have arranged a deal with shaktar when he moved there. gives him time to get used to europe and work towards securing a permot. shakar get a world class talent make a profit and we get a player with european experience for the same amount gremio wanted in the first place. and we dont need ljajic anymore...
Thought so myself..
I was wondering if they are something to do with the training scheme we share with that Brazilian academy...
Morrison looks nothing like that.
tevez scored a fk in that game too i think?
you're alive! Did you meet pac and biggie?
I'd prefer Sanchez but Costa is not bad at all. Sweet left foot, and certainly can take a decent free kick.
yep
another thing I like about Costa is he is pacy as feck, I love players with speed to burn
Urm well he sort of does.. Its a pretty far off and vague pic..
Too soon man too soon.. Also just while we are on the subject.. Aren't you contradicting yourself? Or is it meant to be that way?
I find this exciting and think it will be a great signing
the main attribute he brings is when he plays with fabio, rafael, and ando...they can all start doing brazilian foursome goal celebrations.
Samba baby, imagine the crazy sex parties those four will have it will be like old times for anderson with ronaldo and nani in 2007-8, hmmm, maybe that is why he had such a good year that season
It's a pretty shit photo so you really cannot tell. One could say it's Kaka sitting to his right and Zoran Tosic sitting to the right of Kaka.
Judge for yourself
He looks a 30-year old.
Is he in this shot? Top left?
thats him, and that could be a rep of his to his left.
they could be from the academy, arent alot of the young'uns required/encouraged to wear suits when out and about at the likes of matches? Kinda like its part of their grooming overall
If he was here with his representatives I would imagine it is to talk terms, which could also signal that a price with his club has been agreed.
I feel the same way, I'd not be thrilled with this signing but his potential is higher than Young's.

V. Few left footers in the game. No problems!
Forged passport, racist.
This is a pleasant surprise. Looked very good the few times I've seen him play so if we did get him it is a permanent thing. Being able to take free kicks is a bonus as we are really lacking someone who can take them and we've blown so many good opportunities to score.
The eyes don't lie, that is a kid
Even though I'd much rather see him on the left, meaning Nani on the right to continue his good relationship with Rafael this season... Well either wing there's potential good combinations
For a start :
Costa plays on the left. Evra is great with overlaps, Anderson and Costa speaking the same language might mean Anderson combines well with him when playing left central midfield
Costa plays on the left with Fabio at left back and Anderson left central midfield. 3 Brazilians, 2 left feet and 1 right footer who likes to get forward and have a shot.
Costa plays on the right with Rafael bombing forward into the space a left footer leaves. Again, same language and could perhaps see the best of Rafael attacking
Costa certainly wouldnt be a player I'd have suggested, but we could do a lot, lot worse and he's clearly a talent who would likely fit in with the other players we have. And we've been interested in him before.

You not been watching the champions league this year.
I am, I am. Also a very good chant for whenever we're strongly linked with anyone.
Yup.
I wonder if that means we were also involved in the Texiera deal.
Costa at Shaktar 2010
Not really................
Bottom left Brazilian Dodo?
Don't think so.
