Chelsea striker Diego Costa, 28, rejected the offer of a new £200,000-a-week contract at Stamford Bridge before a reported bust-up with manager Antonio Conte. (Times- subscription required)

>Costa is ready to call a truce with the Blues - amid rumours of a move to China - and stay with them until the end of the season. (The Sun)

He is set for clear the air talks with Conte this week but will leave at the end of the season after refusing to sign a two-year contract extension. (Daily Express)

>Conte expects Costa to be back at work this week after Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich made it clear he wants the two make up, and he will not allow the striker to leave. (Daily Mail)

Conte has told Costa to forget about going to China and insisted: "Money is not everything". (Mirror)

>Costa has been offered £600,000 a week to join Jiangsu Suning, with the Chinese Super League side also willing to pay £80m for the striker. But his move to China could be threatened by new rules restricting the number of overseas stars who can be fielded. (Daily Star)

Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil suggests he "very comfortable" in London, having said last week he wants to know the long-term future of manager Arsene Wenger before committing to a new contract. (Germany national team website)

>Aston Villa's French defender Aly Cissokho is set to be loaned to Greek champions Olympiakos. (Supersport)

Coventry City boss Russell Slade is set to make his second and third loan signings of the January transfer window, bringing in Derby County defender Farrend Rawson and striker Charles Vernam, both aged 20. (Coventry Telegraph)

Bravo is so fucking bad, he looks about four feet tall when there's a shot coming at him. They'd have been just as well sticking a midfielder in goals.

>>73713843
What I can't understand is why he changed the winning formula. In the beginning of the season, he played a 4-1-4-1 that worked. Sure, the games weren't that hard but the team looked genuinely dangerous. Then he goes ahead and switches to 4-2-3-1 v Tottenham, loses, plays a couple of games with 3 at the back and draws both, removes Nolito from the starting XI for no particular reason, goes back to 3 at the back against Chelsea and Leicester and gets btfo. Only tough game he's won after the first 6 is against Arsenal where he switched back to 4-1-4-1.

Also, fuck Bravo, Hart wasn't that good but Bravo is on another level of shit this season.

>>73713986
Didn't he go for that cheap cause he's 30?

Pepe is just trying to out meme Conte

Problem for Pep is Chelsea has a title winning squad + Knate.

While City have an old as fuck squad + KDB/Aguero carrying them

City seriously need new full backs, a good CB, and a non manlet keeper, and probably backups for Toure, Fernandinho and start looking for the next David Silva

>>73714004
nah, it was his clause

>>73714004
It was his release clause and also a fair representation of his value based on his age and skill.

>need a keeper

>>73714030
>the keeper that couldn't jump to his left
he is good but keepers in atletico look great because they have a great defense and tend to play defensive style

>>73714030

>>73714017
>City seriously need new full backs
Yes they do but why the fuck did Pep think Sagna and Kolarov could play like Lahm and Alaba?

>a good CB
Lel they've spent £120m on centre backs in two years.

>backups for Toure, Fernandinho
Toure was supposed to be a backup player until Pep got exposed. Why did City sign Delph if he's too shit to play?

>non manlet keeper

>>73714064
I'll never forget that. He went full retard.

>>73714055
Good fullbacks take time to scout, and he wasnt going to poach Alaba or pay the 70m Buyern would have asked for

The plan was for Otamendi/Stones to pair with Kompany - however now that he is fully perma crocked they need to buy a solid CB to replace him. They could have done a lot better with that 120m

They signed Delph to get around the homegrown player thing, they did want Barkley but Everton were going to ask for like 50m in 2013, so they raided Villa

If you think about Sagna and Stones, neither of them are actually bad players at the moment, but they just can't play the way Pep wants them to. Tell the former to play like a normal full back and the latter to take less risks and they could play for any team. I mean there are guys like Valencia, Phil Jones and Ragnar Klavan starting.

stones makes too many mistakes to be a good defender, even worse to be the kind of defender poop wants him to be. Wouldn't surprise me if he ended up playing defensive mid

sagna is not a bad player but he is 33 and it kinda shows at times

City needs fresh young players urgently: yaya (33), caballero (35), bravo (33), kompany (30), kolarov (31), clichy (31), zabaleta (32), fernandinho (31), silva (31), navas (31), nolito (30)

iniesta was injured for a few weeks, and then there's the cl group stage, early copa, some minor home games and the typical luis enrique rotations. That list proves nothing tbqh

iniesta - busi - gomes/rakitic is probably his main midfield right now, with rafinha and denis as subs

Calling it now, the next trend is wingers. Teams will start playing 4-3-3 with 2 wingers and a striker v 3 man defences, basically going man to man, and that'll be the start of the end of the ol' 3 at the back maymay.

Nah, been painfully shit so far. My relationship with this website is like a smack addiction. It went stale a long time ago, but I'm just hoping the next hit will spark my interest again.

>>73716137
I like the idea of more matches, but I don't like that it will be diluted with shit teams

>>73716150
>>73716137
The main problem is that it will have more uneven games, you stick two teams of an even strength, you'd get a good match. You stick a weak team against a strong team and it will be a shit match

>>73716137
>groups of 3
Nope.

>>73716169
>Not wanting no dead rubbers in the groups

Pretty much the entire tournament becomes knockout, though I'd have preferred it if only the top team went through.

>>73716188
But instead you get matches that can be fixed

>A 1-1 B
>A 1-1 C

You'd bet your house on B and C drawing 2-2

A 1-1 B
A 0-2 C
B 0-2 C

No such thing in the World Cup. Tiebreakers are GD-GF-H2H-coin toss. The point is that it's ridiculously easier to reach a coin toss scenario in a group of 3 than it is in a group of 4.

>Arsenal recorded a convincing 4-0 win at Swansea on Saturday, making them by far the highest away scorers in the Premier League this season with 27 - Liverpool are the next highest with 23.

>If they continue at their current rate the Gunners would finish the campaign with somewhere around 46 or 47 away goals.

>The best away tally for a Premier League season was set by Liverpool with 48 in the 2013-14 campaign, and Manchester United's 47 in 2001-02 is second best.

>Neither Liverpool nor United won the title in those seasons, mind
