Barbara 15,149 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 That's hilarious, I can't stop laughing... His reaction after he doesn't get a foul is: 'come here now you little bitch'Well, he's a whole package, unfortunately we can't pick only the good things. I do hope José tames him the little bit necessary for him to avoid suspensions.I really have watched little of this guy (never said otherwise) because I'm surprised by his quality and also by his temperament. He seemed just tough, but he's a bit dirty (or full throttle, depending on how you see it). Daniel1980, Stats and BlueLion. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 That sums up Costa for you. I am sure managers talk to him about his quick temper and his antics but when he plays and gets wound up it seems he is uncontrollable. Because the last thing we need is a 3 game suspension or even more for his misconduct. I like his aggressive style but he needs to know the limit and understand football is a contact sport but it is not a street fight. Even in UFC headbutts are not permitted but he seems to do it a lot.The incident with Sissoko last season makes me laugh and I don't know why I find it so funny. Sissoko's reaction for a start and then when Costa doesn't get his way he literally tries to throttle Sissoko Lol, it is so funny watching that at the moment. But if that incident was in PL, he will easily get 5-8 match ban or so. Hopefully never happened again, cause it will be not that funny anymore.

different level 1,056 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Reading through the thread it seems the only concern about Diego is his temper. Now I don't follow La Liga closely, but looking at some of the videos posted in the thread, if he pulls some of those moves on multiple occasions you can bet he'll receive a lengthy ban and the media will start treating him like Suarez. I hope he settles down a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Juan 28,141 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 "I hope my actions on the pitch and my feet will do the talking and then people can decide if I'm a good player or not," he said.“All I can say is I love playing hard and fairly. I want to improve, not only as a player but as an individual, and I believe this is the perfect place for me to do that."Joining was an easy decision for me. We have some of the best players in the world, the best manager in the world and it's a club with great history.”Costa was part of the Atletico team which ended Chelsea's interest at the semi-final stage of the Champions League last season, an evening he recalls with great fondness."I remember the atmosphere and the passion of the supporters," he said. "They stayed right until the end, getting behind their team, even though it was unlikely they could win after we scored two quick goals.” kellzfresh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBlueGuy 1,552 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 By history he probably meant when he started to follow football http://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/diego-costa-i-owe-chelsea-fans-an-apology-9663505.htmlAlso surprised that he said something like this, I always thought if asked he would say something like I give my all for the shirt, no matter against who...etc. Looks like he wants to be popular with the fans and he will be, provide he lives up to our expectations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the reason I chose Chelsea and why I want to defend this shirt."Not sure if he just joined Liverpool or Chelsea. As I said a few times, the way Brazilians and Englishes see history is different.A historical club for us is a club with big support, who's been standing for a long while, that has big rivalries and we have all that. Of course silverware is also part of the context, but it's much less important for us than it is for them, so maybe that's his reference.

Spike 12,049 Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 I wonder who is taking pks for chelsea....costa, hazard or cesc?I'd say Hazard at the moment.

Las7 951 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 The difference a striker making runs inside the box is so great, really excited by pre-season having an actual top class striker leading the line. *Knocks on wood* kellzfresh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheva. 5,373 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 The goals are nice, but I did not expect him to drop back and link up play like this, and he usually makes the right decisions.Very promising, lets hope he can carry this form into the season. kellzfresh, DYC. and Barbara 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
