    Marca must have been peeking at our running commentary about the lack of a "9" on the team see article below and the average minutes played per goal of the most recent players who were in the 9 position and false 9 slot:

    Man.. Costa in numbers looks worse than in action. he is terrible, should not even be called up again.

    surprised by Soldado's numbers there

    his move to Spurs has really been poor for his career

    I would like them to look at all the strikers we've had, to see if Costa is possibly the worst one we ever had. I think there's a high chance he's up there.

    It's the team's fault though, plus patience.

    It's no ones fault (maybe only DB). Costa doesn't fit our style.. he is a direct player. The irony is that I think he would have fit Brazil much better.
