Diego Costa

[jmarlow 458]

Everytime he has dived with the ball in the penalty box. I can't think of any exactly (I could be remembering wrong, from last season), but I'm sure that he has chances to at least get the ball on target but he has fucked up by taking a touch or diving. I just expect that a £32,000,000 striker to have the ability to score from even the most unlikely passes or crosses.

Why did he not shoot? He should have buried that.

i dont think that was a dive there was a clear push in his back, when running at pace with the ball that push was enough to put him off balance.

I just cant think of good chances that he has missed this season, also our 2 most creative players from last season (Hazard and Fabregas) have been poor this season, for me the service just hasnt been there for Costa.

I know he's partly a victim of our system but we've come to the point we can just expect him to lose the ball whenever he tries to move with it. Head down, no awareness of his surroundings.

Needs to start scoring fast otherwise we might as well bench him because that's where his contribution ends, drama and diva behaviour exluded

Waiting our (you know who it is) to start defending him...

He got suspended a fortnight earlier today.

He got suspended a fortnight earlier today.

ohhh... That's sad, I really wanted a new debate

[Tautvix 1,321]

What's the point of this player in football? He could be more useful in some other sports.

[MrBlueGuy 1,552]

He has got so bad that even if he was available for 15-20m I doubt Atletico will take him back.

[scargo 75]

Just trash

[jmarlow 458]

wasnt as bad as people are making out

[Milan 17,853]

He pretends to be physical but my god he is incredibly weak. And he makes a joke of himself when constantly diving and showing some gestures towards the opponent - just like today with Shawcross and the 'smell'. Utter shit.

Chicharito is better.

Sell. A proper player would've converted that Hazard cross.

Not just partly but almost completely. Costa is the type of striker that is heavily dependent on the service he receives. Same goes for someone like Cavani. When/if the team ever gets back to normal, he'll score goals again. Now he'll just frustrate.

I'd be less annoyed if he stopped the Thierry Henry impressions. It's embarassing. Somehow he's convinced himself he's a great footballer. Needs to be brought back to earth.

Assault? What a bunch of pussies there are in Britain and Wales

It keeps getting better and better for this guy.

Has to be said. This is embarassing to claim that as assult. The thing is with us English is that if there is any chance of a claim then that means easy money

Disgrace of a player and always show bad display of himself
