another striker is en route - http://www.theguardian.com/football/2013/aug/01/liverpool-diego-costa-atletico-madrid
even rawk are concerned about signing another alleged racist cheat
If true that Liverpool have offered €25m for Diego Costa, Atletico will snap their hands off and laugh all the way to the proverbial bank.
Diego Costa is a decent player, but he wouldn't get in Atletico's strongest starting eleven (Baptistao & Villa). €25m is outrageous money.
Stevie G's 'choice' of testimonial opponents

Look at all those 'great choice' posts?!?! Um yeah, he chose them out of all the clubs in the world, it's absolutely not because he went for bigger teams and they weren't interested. Definitely not. Olympiakos, first choice all the way.
The first Premier League winning team Ferguson had contained Schmeichel, Ince, Hughes, Cantona, Pallister, Bruce, McClair and Robson. You can see a little of where Rodgers thinking is when we're looking at players like Papadopolous, Aspas and Costa. He's not just building a team to get into the top four, but a team that can compete for the league title sooner rather than later.

Praying they sign Diego Costa. He is honestly poor; two left feet, always looked the weakest link whenever he was on the pitch for Atletico. Basically the Marcus Bent of Brazilian strikers.
The RS paying £20m for him would be insane.
