Hiddink: "But because of Diego Costa's high energy level he wanted to do everything, similar to Didier Drogba when I first came here.“ [GWL]
Hiddink: "Drogba was also coming into midfield but we also had these players like Lampard and Essien, who could do the creative play.“ [GWL]
Hiddink: "It’s important to get the best out of Diego Costa. Limit yourself to what you’re good at and lurk in and around the box. [GWL]
