    Well Chelsea are a far better team than United so that's not really fair.

    In terms of attacking quality its fairly even imo Chelsea have Hazard, Cesc, Oscar and Schurrle
    United have Di Maria, Mata, Rooney and RVP

    It's all about the team though and how they gel. So far, Chelsea have been outstanding and Fabregas has struck up a fantastic partnership with Costa.

    Falcao needs the same service. Plus, he'll most likely play in a front 2 making it more likely he won't score as many goals. Costa is the lone striker and the entire attack is built around him.

    What do you mean we'll see *? The stats don't lie. As of right now, Falcao is better see below.

    That's your back up, after a few good appearances in the EPL that makes Costa better? Did you really just say that:56::56:

    Costa wasn't fully fit at the World Cup, it's unfair to say he failed

    I think both players are phenomenal btw.

    There is very little between the 2 in terms of quality.

    Some people are talking like Costa is miles better than Falcao though, which I disagree with.

    If Costa played for anyone but Chelsea Sonny would have a 24/7 hard on over him I hate Chelsea and I hate Mourinho but Costa is clearly the better striker out of the 2 anyone saying different has been hitting the sauce far too hard this weekend

    I hate Chelsea but I like Costa. He's not as good as Falcao, though.

    Costa had a better season last year while Falcao was injured. That doesn't make him a better striker. Falcao has done it for 4 or 5 seasons.

    If falco was at Chelsea he would get 35+ goals this season at united if he gets less then 25 it will probably be disappointing for him costa is top class but falco is top top class

    You got me all wrong mate. A don't even hate Chelsea. A enjoy watching them now that they've signed Costa and more importantly Fabregas.

    If you had seen some of my post in the La Liga thread about Costa during last season you would know I rate him very very highly. He is quality.

    But he's not better than Falcao. Or at least wasn't, as I said it remains to be seen how Falcao is now after breaking his leg.

    And as you can see your in a very small minority here who thinks Costa is better:86:

    Plus a dunno if up you just talk * or your deluded. Look at this post you posted a year ago regarding the top three players.


    Messi 3rd behind Suarez? Whit?:56: Ronaldo fair enough you have a case but Suarez?:smiley-laughing002:

    Out of curiosity, who do you think will be the better signing.

    Sanchez or Di Maria?
