He's a good scorer, obviously, but you need a bit more from your striker on a more consistent basis. How does Costa lack football intelligence? Please explain.

LeonDavis23 371 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Aargh why didn't he just get booked against Man U since nobody gave a shit about the West Ham game anyways. Now he will probably end up missing Spuds/City game when we really need him. the wes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unionjack 7,531 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 Last week against Saints Diego was getting kicked about,decked and had UFC moves put on him by Shawcross all thru the game . An earlier Diego woulda gone apeshit on his arse. Instead he tells him hes got BO but later checks his chin to see how well he shaved!

Jase 43,479 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 It's annoying that Costa is still on 4 yellow cards. Would be typical if he got it against Boro and then suspended against Spurs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milan 17,957 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 More than annoying it is shocking he still has not received another yellow Conte's magic works! But please Diego, try a couple of more games! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrExcalibur100 7,124 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 His directness is what makes him so deadly. He wasn't that great in the 1st half, but my god was he unplayable in the 2nd. They just couldn't deal with his direct running. As very few teams have failed to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 El Cholo was amazing. Even if he misses few chances, he still scores and contributes greatly to the team. Top top striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara 15,149 Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Bad-form Diego (I read this even last week), is not only the top scorer with 9 goals, but the player in the league most involved in goals (12, with his 3 assists). I do admit he's been missing more than usual, but as long as he keeps scoring, is cool in the pitch and keeps fighting and giving us his best, I can certainly overlook this. Also, many of his 'wasted' chances have been saved. The Skipper and Johnnyeye 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Skipper 20,609 Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Costa continues to defy the ones that say he's too technically below par. Like I said when we signed him, his technique is unorthodox but it's good enough. Would love to see that gif of his control and nut meg turn for Pedro's goal. Sublime performance, just a bit cold with his finishing. Muzchap, Supermonkey92, Igi26 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unionjack 7,531 Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 If that studs up tackle by Coleman that took him to the floor yet the ref with a clear view didnt say fuck all didnt make Diego go bonkers then what will? Hes a changed man! Muzchap, Johnnyeye and 11Drogba 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is World Class, can do everything, modern day beast.  Barbara, quickpassnmove, Johnnyeye and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
