Namika 922 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 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.If he really is injured, I seriously hope it's not a bad one. A couple of weeks wouldn't really hurt us that much because we only have one game and after that it will be time for an international break but anything more than that and we're fucked. It's not Beasley who wrote the article. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDY 1,290 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Even if it's only 'a couple of weeks' it could still be bad. Coming from someone who has had like a billion hamstring injuries, you get injured, go through the rest/rehab/training thinking it's fine again, then pull/tear it again when you're back in a competitive situation.This is assuming the rumours are true ofc.

Popular Post! MrExcalibur100 7,124 Posted August 28, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted August 28, 2014 If Costa truly is injured (the fact that its a recurrence of a hamstring injury makes it worse) then we have no one to blame but ourselves. With all the time Mourinho has spent eulogizing over Costa in the media, we should have been going all out to sign a alternative. Aguero hasn't even started any of City's games so because Jovetic has been simply amazing but yet the media want to declare us title favourites? Baloney. You don't go to war with only one competent striker when your main title rivals have four. Hopefully, it's not a serious tear and it's just a strain. He still will miss the Everton match regardless which is a big blow. kellzfresh, Diego, Mufassir08 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanctuar 9 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Being reported by The Telegraph as well but dunno if they are just stealing it from Sun or not.http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/chelsea/11060418/Chelsea-injury-scare-as-Diego-Costa-suffers-hamstring-blow.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namika 922 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 It is understood Costa suffered a hamstring problem in training on Wednesday that has prompted fears he could be out for up to six weeks.But Chelsea are hoping further assessment will show the injury is not too bad and Costa has still not given up on facing Everton at Goodison Park Wtf ? Up to 6 weeks but he thinks he can play against Everton ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mediator 2,026 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Hope he isn't injured.... ROB @1RobBeasley · 2 hSorry but I am not at liberty to discuss any details of the bad news to which you keep referring. ROB @1RobBeasley · 13 minWho do we play Saturday????

Diego 433 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 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. Chelsea? and The Chels 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego 433 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 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.

Pizy 18,909 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 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. I_Just_Blue_Myself, Chelsea? and Mufassir08 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namika 922 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Telegraph are covering themselves in case if he's not really injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando 6,585 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 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.

iseah100 5,612 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Even if he is injured Torres is competent enough to help us against the big sides. We just need Costa for the smaller sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He started kost of our games last year, surely he can start at least 3 for us this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 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... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
couris 232 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Another hamstring injury. He is starting to break down at a very young age. Very worrying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namika 922 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
