Diego Costa

[Henrique 9,133]

I hope in next football games Costa has better stats than Ibrahimovic. I cant stand play PES with Ibra as a 91 players and Costa 85. Ibra is no more than a 82 players in my eyes.

Thought he was poor today. His lack of technique and  football intelligence lets him (and us) down too many times. He's a good scorer, obviously, but you need a bit more from your striker on a more consistent basis.

I agree but he is the only striker since Drogba who has worked for us. I let that slide when I think about all the Torreses and Shevchenkos we've been through..

Think the most annoying thing about Costa is his tendency to over-dribble with the ball. He would be 10x more effective if he stops pretending to be Messi!

[Jase 43,479]

Shame he didn't score against United. Would have completed the humiliation for Mourinho.

And bloody hell, he's still on 4 yellow cards. Was hoping he would get one and serve the suspension against West Ham in the cup game.

Lol....this guy has two completely two different emotional states ON and OFF the pitch:

 

 

Still better English than Wayne Rooney.

Yeah, actually had a poor match which luckily was overshadowed by how great everyone else was. 

Any other day and he'd have had a hat-trick with that shambles of a utd defense.

BLA BLA BLA BLA

WC, Diego FUCKING MONSTER Costa:

64 games. 
Directly involved in 53 goals. 
40 goals. 
13 assists. 
Scored only 1 penalty. 
0 Red Cards. 

You hate him because you don't have him.

[Styles 9,790]

Stunning goal. Long may it continue.

[Last Sicarius 610]

Finally striker made for our Club after Drogba  era.

[The Skipper 20,593]

He should've scored more today but that was a fantastic goal. 

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Fantastic goal and he should score at least 2, but how could people say he is off form before he scored that beauty?

If you watch football, arguably best striker in world Suarez misses that one on one almost every game. Just watch barca. But obviously they create more chances and hence score more goals. 

Diego diego diego!

[Parky 739]

Seriously stop writing his technique and footballing brains off. I understand Costa can be a little deceiving sometimes as he is so aggressive, strong and mad but his movement, link up play and teamworks is fantastic. I even rate his technique and finishing as excellent. I dont think there is any other striker that could be a better fit to our team then Costa atm. The guy is class!

I think we must also give him a lot of credit for playing football now. Not arguing with refs, getting stupid yellows, boxing, etc. And most of us wanted him to leave in Summer (including me)... Fools

Diego Costa has scored his 40th Premier League goal in his 64th appearance

[the wes 7,212]

bromance Conte and Costa 

[Barbara 15,149]

lol, Conte looks so small that up close to him.

I think people are normally very unfair to him. He isn't the most plastic, talented, technical player, but he's probably one of the top 3 players in the world - all positions considered - to show heart, clutch and never give=up attitude in the pitch. And that's the thing with Diego, he plays with his heart, he give his all, his best, he never stops, he never gives up. He just fights, fights and fights.

His silly moments have been diminishing more and more and while he's still handful for defenders and no angel, he's more than ever more in control of his emotions and how far he can go. He's still a pain for those marking him and he's still as physical as they get and sometimes there's maybe a little bit excessive touching from his part when being marked, but you can't fault his commitment, his desire and his will.

Those things can definitely make up for some technical ability and I believe he's just the right man for the job. He sometimes carries the ball beyond his abilities to hold it and he believes his dribbling skills are way better than they really are, but he normally gets the job done. Could have scored that chance at the end of the first half, but his goal definitely made up for it. This man represents everything a Chelsea player can show in the pitch for me. Mourinho once said he wanted to have 11 Azpilicuetas - and I agree because if 11 players were as consistent and Dave, we'd be unstoppable, but I might prefer 11 Diego Costas with his passion, fight and disposition (I can use without the breakdowns though).

Fs give Costa a break mate without him we would be in the bottom half the table  

[Unionjack 7,531]

Ive loved Costa since we first signed him/ Thay initial link up wich Cescy was pure magic and it changed the  whole club both on anf off the field overnight. Whether Conte has channeled that spare agression into his football or he did it himself i dunno but the thing I'm worried about is all rhe clubs that will come for him the end of the season.

But for now ts bloomin great!
