didierforever 7,349 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Did it occur to you that he simply might not have liked that Costa abused Coleman and that's why he didn't want to be part of that? Frankly, it was a dick thing to do--and stupid--by Costa. He shouldn't have done that.There have been plenty of occasions both in preseason and this season when Cesc was very quick to defend a teammate. I remember when Costa was about to receive his first yellow card, Cesc was the first to go to the referee to defend Diego. When Fabregas thinks he's right, he's always louder than anyone when he defends a teammate. I love Costa, but he wasn't right there and such dick behavior might cost us. look at it properly. cesc sees howard and a couple more evertonians coming costa's way. turns, picks the ball and after azpi and rambo join the fray, then he joins. if he had wanted to remove costa from the fray, he could have done from the start. he simply dint. it was a weird reaction from cesc anyways you want to put. as for costa, well, let's ignore the fact that Seamus Coleman was doing his best to get Diego Costa booked all match, finally getting the striker to snap a little before the own goal. also, he just mocked coleman, whats wrong with that. tit for tat. thats what makes him costa. a fighter, a beast.

zolayes 14,489 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I was delighted when we signed Cesc . Im even more happy about it now , still some will find something petty to blame him for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's pretty clear why he didn't join immediately: being actually next to Costa, he heard what he said to Coleman and felt uncomfortable because of that. At least he looked pretty uncomfortable to me. Other guys who ran to Costa's defence probably hadn't even heard what Costa said. Whatever you say, Costa was a cunt there. If you think there's nothing wrong with mocking and taunting someone, well... Diego is the one who should be blamed for that incident. Cesc isn't exactly an angel himself, so to make him uncomfortable Costa must have been a total arsehole there. Anyway, you're really making mountains out of molehills. In all other incidents, Cesc has demonstrated that he's very committed to defending his teammates. Costa simply didn't deserve it there, tbh.

(people seriously get very defensive about their favourites on here).i used to be the captain of my university in cricket. and the first thing told to me was stick together no matter what. show a united front. you can talk to the instigator later in the dressing room. but on the field, specially in the face of an altercation you have to support your teammate irrespective of if he deserved it or not.

sainttourist 68 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Don't know why everybody still think we play with AM and DMs, for me it looks like more three in CM. We have more all round midfielders then specialists in certain area, look at stats Rami have 2 assist and goal, Matic also goal + assist. They doesn't stay back for cover like it were before, now they all have permission to go forward, it is harder, they need to look each other for cover, but it brings more options in attack. I think with time they get better understanding and it will bring team to next level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The only place to be 11,313 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Howard comes running out moaning but literally at the split second he goes for Costa, Fabregas turns his head. As soon as he turns back around and sees Costa and Howard he pulls Costa (who is already on a booking) away. He does the right thing. Anyway, that's far too much time spent talking about a complete non-incident.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-MGbWwyoSo The Skipper, zolayes, Barbara and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cesc did pull Costa away, which was the right thing to do. If you want to blame someone for the incident, blame Costa for being a dick and getting a silly yellow.

darrus 422 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 From the video The only place to be posted it looks like Cesc didn't even realize at first what's going on and just went to pick up the ball as he intended to do - as soon as he sees the commotion he drops the ball, runs to Costa and forces him away. Getting in the face of Everton's player in the process by the way.Why his behavior is even an issue, I don't understand, really...And Costa should tighten up his act. Not that I'm blaming him for whatever he said (not much obviously 'cos he doesn't know English) as Coleman was doing his best to get him sent off all match. But picking up silly yellow cards is not the way. zolayes and The only place to be 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidEU 2,023 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Cesc doesn't even realise whats going on til after hes scooped the ball up and then gets involved with it. Absolute nonsense.Come on guys, we have enough people outside the club slagging off our players for no reason, lets not do the same.

didierforever 7,349 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Since wheb does making an observation or commenting something even minutely on the wrong side of good become "stirring shit" or spreading negativity or slagging players. This place is seriously getting weird.I mean I dint like what happened and I said so. Did i abuse cesc? No. Did I say anything ubtowardly. No.If u think he was unaware of the situation, then say so. I think he was not. But to say that people just like to stir shit, the idiots like chuka seriously can..........And then there are people like the skipper who ll always stay good and simply put down everyone else cos u dared say ANYTHING about their favourite player.

5354 204 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 wasnt coleman who first trying to wind costa to get him sent off? i think costa did that back in retaliation at coleman for getting a y/c for him. stupid and childish, but i would had probably mock at coleman too.howard's reaction was unncessary. didierforever, zolayes and Stats 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara 15,149 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 After the goal, Fabregas actually turns and celebrates with the Chelsea fans who are seated in the stand the cameras are situated in. Then he picks the ball up and actually pulls Costa away from the melee to calm him down, which is exactly what he needed. Think some people are making mountains out of molehills. I remember some people saying another player who spent 8 years at Arsenal before joining us in his mid-20s would never be 'proper Chelsea'.Howard comes running out moaning but literally at the split second he goes for Costa, Fabregas turns his head. As soon as he turns back around and sees Costa and Howard he pulls Costa (who is already on a booking) away. He does the right thing. Anyway, that's far too much time spent talking about a complete non-incident.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-MGbWwyoSoLOL FOREVERhe kept discussing and quoting people who disagreed about what he described as Cesc's actions - but he never answered or quoted your post and video that show evidence that what he said is bollocks and not only he's wrong but saying something that's not true (even though I don't think on purpose). I never ceases to amuse me... but it's funny seeing him answering everyone's post and debating about his weird take of the events, but ignoring your facts about what really happened... zolayes, iseah100 and The only place to be 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks right staright at him. Right before he makes a 180 degree turn to catch the ball, he is looking rigjt at howard.TOPTB says it as if cesc does not that this is happening. That he turns his head rihht at the instant where howard goes for costa that he turns as if he was unaware of tje situation. Which is crazy!!! Look at tje video damn it!!! Just look at it!!! Costa knows howard is coning dor him cos I can bet that he would be screaming and abusing, u think cesc don't hear.I mean for the love of god just look at the video. Cesc probably even gives a reaction to howard just before turning. A nod of head, rigjt before he turns and howard grabs costa.I dint reply to toptb's post cos it was just WRONG!! And also as everone said, it was a non-issue and simply dint want it to get any furthwr. But this "sisterhood of the travelling pants" thing is getting beyond ridiculous.
