Good enough that we could be dealing with real players telling us that it's always been his dream to play there in a few years. I'll take that kind of potential every day and you have pay for that.

Pyjamarama wrote: » But they're no.10's who can be very effective on the wings too. It allows us to be fluid in attack and that's becoming increasingly important. Just look at the amount of inverted wingers popping up in recent years. The ability of our forwards last year to pop up anywhere was so important in our attacks. So difficult to defend against.
Fescue wrote: » The other common theme among our signings is their supposed high work rate. Lallana we know works extremely hard. From what I have read Can and Markovic fall into that category also. Add Henderson into the mix and I expect a greater intensity to our pressing next year. That should make us very formidable.

I actually had a mate who had the very controversial (though subsequently arguably correct) opinion at the time that Costa offered more to Atleti than Falcao. You can replace someone like Falcao who is good at knocking in goals, but Suarez's attitude, intense hunger and desire, combined with his unbelievable talent makes him totally irreplaceable imo

He is proven in the PL and CL league. He brings baggage with him of course but like Suarez once he crosses that white line all he wants to do is win.
