Jarrod Bowen would cost £20mil, Said Benrahma the same, Radz hasnt got £2 never mind £20mil.

He wouldn't go for it last January so no chance now.
Didn't I read somewhere that Radz is worth £437m ?

He hasnt been as bad as some have made out imo, he has shown bright moments and deserves time. Still feel the lack of a number 10 is impacting him and if Hernandez was in the side we would see a lot more from Helder. Also tbf to him MB has already admitted the style we play doesnt allow Costa to use his pace as much as he would like. Taking Costa out for Hernandez is the wrong move, play them together. Hernandez needs help to and Dallas, Forshaw and Harrison arent on Pablo's wavelength, Costa may be.
6.5 on my seasonal ratings

Hopefully Costa will excel once Pablo returns

I think he will.

Pablo needs players like Costa around him, not plodders.

Imo he is getting overly criticised.

Slightly higher than Jack Harrison on my ratings

Our wingers haven't provided enough assists or scored enough goals imo although Bamford hasn't helped their cause

I actually think MB is part of the problem for Costa.

He is trying to get Costa to do what Pablo does, drift all over and stuff. Thats not what Costa does, he seems to be best when allowed to stay wide right and drive at the full back.

Pablo is to old to use pace as his main weapon now so he uses his brain to find spaces, Costa doesnt need to do that.

Pablo wants to get involved in the play and make things happen so he drifts off the wing, Costa wants to get his full back 1v1, different players and MB trying to convert Costa rather then maximising what he has shown he does best is impacting his influence imo.

Pablo wants to play as a 10, Costa wants to play as that inside forward, room for both of them.

I agree on the goals and assists, wouldn't mind the assists so much if the midfield had managed 10-12 goals between them, thats not to much to ask.

But they have only managed 6 and Pablo was 2 of those.

Rather then directing our fury at Bamford and Costa as individuals maybe we should be directing it at Klich, Forshaw, Dallas, Harrison, dont have the excuse of not being adapted but have only managed 3 goals between them in what minutes wise betweem them amounts to 46 games!!!!
