Reports in England continue to link Chelsea with a move for Atlético forward Antoine Griezmann. Despite repeated assurances from the Calderón that there is no desire on the part of the Spanish club to enter into any negotiations over the France international, Sky Sports on Tuesday reported that Diego Costa may be used as a potential sweetener in any deal tabled by the Premier League club to tempt Atlético into doing business. Costa has had some public differences of opinion with manager José Mourinho and it is thought that the Spain international is desperate to return to the Calderón.

Chelsea are thought to be mulling an offer in the region of 50 million euros plus Costa, but the Atlético board are keen to sit down with Griezmann at the end of the season and offer him a new contract with a release clause significantly higher than the 80 million euros it currently stands at.

I think everyone has finally come around to the fact Costa isn't very good. He's especially horrible when trying to come out wide to get the ball like he for some maddening reason has continued to do all season.

I don't normally bring up how I'm pretty much always right because it would be lame of me but I remember the days when I got crapped on for calling him and overrated tPOS before he came to the Prem.

His finishing could be a 99 and it wouldn't matter, his awareness is -0
