      Apparently our scouts watched Paco Alcacer score a hat-trick against Basel in the Europa League. Aspas + cash deal mooted.

      I wouldn't mind offering Borini back to Roma plus cash and try bringing Mattia Destro.

      There, we have our 3rd & 4th strikers

      All the news going around about Chelsea trying to bring in Diego Costa why cant we barge in and hijack the bid or something. Is that possible.

      That's the thing, I jut can't see us spending £25+ mil on a forward, especially if we are to hold on to Suarez. I know you need to have quality throughout the squad but FSG don't work like that. Great player, of course.

      That's funny because we reportedly had a £24m bid accepted last summer but Diego Costa decided he wanted to spend one more season in La Liga.

      Key word there is 'reportedly'. I'm all for it, I hope we do get him but I think FSG and Rodgers realise that spending £25 mil on an attack that boasts the most goals in the league might not be the 1st thing on the to-do list.

      F**k that, exactly what we need to do. That would give us the most elite attack, and depth to keep that elite attack in all competitions. We can still fix the defense if we sign Costa. But I suspect the fee will be much higher now.

      If we are really serious about progressing nest season Costa, or someone like him, is the type of player we should be looking at.

      With Borini back as a 4th choice there is no real need for Aspas and our forward line would be the best in the league and among the best in Europe.

      Why would Costa want to leave Atletico though?
