It seems that both Big Fat Sam and ‘Mad Dog’ Martin Allen are Diego Costa fans and are spending time urging Manuel Pellegrini to sign the former Chelsea striker!
Striker in more ways than one because he actually went on strike soon after joining Atletico Madrid following his trouble torn last season at Chelsea.
And in April he found himself suspended for eight games after insulting a referee sent off for dissent in the 28th minute.
He shouted at the official, grabbed his arm, and reportedly used a Spanish phrase that referred to defecating on his “prostitute mother”.
Nice! So there’s no problem swapping one difficult individual for another in the old time world of the Irons duo who, to put it politely, seem to have little discernment of what is acceptable in Manuel Pellegrini’s world.
BFS is quite happy to admit he would have swapped Arnautovic for Costa which is probably why many are relieved he’s gone and we now have a top manager in place where cupping of ears is also an alien prospect!
Allardyce told TalkSport: Costa would “thrive being a big fish in a smaller pond as well”.
“I think it would be a perfect fit. I’d love to see him back in the Premier League and would love to see him at West Ham.
Mad Dog added on the West Ham Fan Show on Love Sport Radio, as transcribed by West Ham World. : “If I was them at West Ham, I’d go for Diego Costa at Atlético Madrid and get him back to London and let that warrior out into the London Stadium and let him lead the line.
“I’d love him to go to West Ham. He’s always going to be in trouble, but even if it’s a good year from him, yeah I’d have him back.”
Steer well clear of him, good though he is he will upset the applecart which could derail our season.
We’ve just got rid of a, self absorbed, Prima Donna striker who created a bad atmosphere in the dressing room. Why on Earth would we want to spend good money to bring in another one? Don’t get it.
Why are we taking any notice of a washed up one trick pony and a bloke that cant hold his own in the conference. costa is a virus that will infect a potentially great side , not even worth consideration.
Because we try to report everything associated with the Hammers. We do accept however that some will disagree, or not trust our judgement, with which we have no problem. 🙂
No.
Fat Head should realise he has zero influence in west ham .Bolton are finished and he should be looking at how much he contributed there downfall . Nevervesntedvir needed about club.
Only Team players with a positive contribution to the dressing room need apply…
