Diego Costa

[Azpinator 2,325]

Easily our best striker since King Drogba.

I really hope he learns some English and stays with us for a long time.

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!

We don't often lose our best players when we have wanted to keep them. Costa will return to Atletico one day but aren't they banned for the next transfer window?

[Jase 43,479]

It really is a missed opportunity that he didn't pick up that 5th yellow card against United. We have Spurs and City to come in late Nov/early Dec. Can't afford to have him miss those games!

[LAM09 6,809]

Keeps delivering and has his temper under control for now. Crazy to think he's been on four yellows for five games. Hope he deliberately gets one after a fine performance against Everton.

It looks like it was a case of 2 fiery characters communicating during/after the Leicester beating, All back to brotherly love.

Just saw this...and that's despite all the tactics employed by City's play-makers to feed Aguero (although the Argentine can create a fair share on his own).

I know a lot of players do it, but it was nice to see Costa thump the badge in his goal celebration, especially after all that transfer talk at the start of the season.

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. 

How does Costa lack football intelligence? Please explain.

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.

[Unionjack 7,531]

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!

 

[Amblève. 4,995]

He was Didier Costa today.

[Jase 43,479]

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.

[Tautvix 1,321]

When was the last time he even fouled anyone?  It's incredible how Conte changed Diego!

[Parky 739]

Another game another goal. Kept fighting until the fkn end. Beast!
