I would hold him unless you really want Lukaku for the foreseeable future.

The price drops have been frustrating yet expected, but any returns tomorrow and he'll likely claw back that lost cash, such is the nature of prices.

Would it be too risky to transfer/wildcard him in this week?

Big haul for him on Sunday then :wink:

Had been very tempted to bin him, but hoping my rare show of patience pays off :)

Any news about this morning, Scout reckon he's gonna start. IS that the general concensus?

Yeah he will start surely?

Fancy him Pedro and Hazard to give Hull the runaround today.

Bournemouth up next. Think I will keep him for that then ship him out, Even if he gets 6 goals. Such a frustrating player to own. Guaranteed to start scoring again though when I ship him out!

I have the same opinion on Costa as Cesc408. He will bite me when I ship him but he needs to stay for Bournemouth.
I have tried the three game captain strategy with him to get better "average" (C) points and got it all wrong. I had a rant about Costa a few weeks ago and still kept him in my squad to my detriment.

A premium player needs to give a good return at least once in three weeks! I will ship him off after Bournemouth no matter what.
The alternatives at this time of the season with rotation and injury are not great until the return of Kane. I have Ibra, Costa and Llorente at the moment and thinking more about 2-4-4 as the way to go forward.

Yeah I've got rid of Costa now.

I just think for his price, as much as he might score, he'll very rarely ever score more than 5 or 6 points.

He's staying until Kane is back, seems a simple swop

Costa has been awful last few games

Likewise Costa to Kane is straightforward
I was looking to see if there'd be further action because of the studs on Kompany but FA wont re-referee Mike Dean's decision.

Probably is time to remove him but not for Ibrahimovic and not until after Bournemouth at least.

I'm comfortable in shipping Costa (when a better option becomes available, i.e. fit Kane or Gabbiadini) because of his rare double figure hauls

He's stunk out the joint for far too long now

But no baps, and as usual he looked close to insanity

I own him but he's so frustrating and clearly just not at the races at the moment

So long as he keeps putting in +6 point showings, I don't see the need to take a hit on a maybe. And there's every chance that he'll pop in a brace at the next game.

Every chance... really? History suggests maybe a goal and no bonus, possible yellow. Hell, maybe even that elusive red before a brace.
