Costa or Balotelli?

neither!

Giroud is better!

Costa

Costa is a good player but I just don't like him since the spitting incidents. Anyone who would do that can fack off to Man U where he would fit in.

And Ballotelli is unpredictable, arrogant and capable of huge losses of form.

Balo is easily the more talented.

They're both a bit prone to psycho moments though.

Balotelli is the most overrated player in world football

Costa.

Costa easily.

Suarez easily

Balotelli's more capable of the sublime, but Costa's much more consistent and makes his presence felt throughout the game. Both are a red card waiting to happen, but Costa's more a master of the dark arts of football, he's street-wise and generally baits his opponents seeking to gain a mental edge over them, while Balo comes across purely as having no control whatsoever over his temperament.

On that basis, I'd rather go for Costa.

Costa will fit in with our squad better. I can see Mario starting a training ground bust up with Mertesacker.

Per would consume Balotelli whole.
