Diego Costa

[Diego 433]

He is injured. Beasley is a chelsea fan there is no reason to completely make it up. Its a huge blow, our next 3 games are extremely tough but we should of sorted our striker problems weeks ago, now we dont have a single striker at the club who is good enough.

we have torres

best case i can see/ hope for is it isn't as bad as first feared but is out for everton, drogba roles back the years we beat everton and costa is fully fit and ready for the swansea game.

It's pretty embarrassing that a club of our size and with our ambitions was banking everything on a single top quality striker who has a history (a very recent history at that) of injuries. Now we're left with an old, past it Drogba and the corpse of Fernando Torres.

Many of us were questioning from the moment we signed Costa what the hell would happen if he got injured early in the season. We're about to find out.

Telegraph are covering themselves in case if he's not really injured.

[Fernando 6,376]

I don't know about you but it was good this happen.

Why?

Because we been saying that there's no way we will last with the 3 strikers we have.

That if an injury happens to Costa we will be screw.

So it's good that this happened while there's still time to buy another striker.

If he indeed got injured.

But even if he didn't get injured we need to get another striker simple.

Even if he is injured Torres is competent enough to help us against the big sides. We just need Costa for the smaller sides.

IF Torres is off, he wont be near the squad Saturday, if he is in the squad, I'd be inclined to think he is not going to Milan

If Costa is injured, obviously Torres will stay. He started kost of our games last year, surely he can start at least 3 for us this season.

The injury has double worries, it could also mean Costa will be injured many times this season.... He injured on training, therefore this injury could repeat more times in this season, as he already had hamstring trouble last season and in summer. That being said, If he is realy injured. Could be just some bad journalism.

And another prove we need another striker, no matter Torres situation...

[couris 232]

Another hamstring injury. He is starting to break down at a very young age. Very worrying.

[Namika 922]

While the initial prognosis appeared grim, there are hopes Costa's injury will not prove as severe as first feared. (Guardian)

BOOOOOM, hopefully one or two weeks, fully rested for Swansea.

[ilovecolombia 25]

Thanks for ruining my fantasy team.

[Myself 793]

all the injury rumours will come to an end within two hours, all speculation

[OneMoSalah 8,614]

A hamstring injury? Ffs.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

So it is true or not? Nothing in Sky, I would not believe it yet.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Just one source reporting it so far. Rob Beasley is close to Jose, that much is true, but then again I wouldn't really be surprised if this was just another one of Mourinho's mind games ahead of a big match where we'll be facing two of our former strikers.

I will be shocked if Jose play mind games with the injury, if actually it isn't. That's really unnecessary thing to do, imo. It could jinx the worst case.

[The Chels 2,502]

So it is true or not? Nothing in Sky, I would not believe it yet.

It's being reported by the Sun, Telegraph and Guardian so I think it's safe to assume it's true. None of the papers know how long he's out for though.
