I wasn't aware that Jesus had failed to make the cut. They have deprived themsleves of a very good impact substitute or if Plan A isn't working, a very good Plan B.
Had to have been some outside forces behind taking Costa. If he's actually fit right now then he really is shocking, because even an off form Negredo would have been a better bet.
