Diego Costa

His celebration was fucking class. Really got everyone pumped. Pretty sure I'm in most of the gifs posted of his celebration, scary bastard looked right at me.

Why's he speaking in a South African accent?

2 goals in 2 games. This is how having a striker feels like.

Don't jinx it, we all went mental when Ba scored two on his debut as well....

But that was 2 goals in 1 game. This is 2 goals in 2 games. That's the difference.

When was the last time we had a centre forward score in his first two games? Off the top of my head, Deco (Portsmouth H, Wigan A) and Malouda (Utd, community shield, Birmingham H) managed it, but the last centre forward would be Adrian Mutu, who scored in his first 3 games running (Leicester, Blackburn, Spurs). We've had a hell of a lot of centre forwards since then.

We've been talking about this guy and fapping about him (please someone teaches me some slang, fapping sounds so crude, but I don't know another word), but it's understandable when we haven't had a striker of this caliber in so long.

But I wanted to dissect a bit of his instinctual and superb movement and goal awareness.

Look how just after Iva cuts he two defenders (and how priceless is it that he leaves the two of them sitting on their arses? This reloaded Iva is mouthwatering) everyone keeps running forward. André - who's also a master on positioning and movement - also stops, but he's a couple of seconds later in his decision. That's why Iva can find Diego unmarked two meters away from the 6-yard (I suppose?) box. That's the awareness and the instinct of a goal scorer making him do just the right thing, at the right time and be in the best possible position to score.

It's not only about being a poacher, but being smart and instinctive about how to score a goal. He's really been amazing to us.

Mutu was on coke though.

You want coke? You want coke? Coke for everyone! This is some good shit I dont even know where tha fuck I am...coach must not see me..boys get me back to tha hotel fast and you get some free coke too.

What hasn't been discussed a lot is his touch off his chest. That touch takes the defender completely out of the game and allows him space to get his shot in.

This is exactly the start I was hoping for him and he's nailed it.

I think its the celebration when he was on loan at Rayo Vallecano and they avoided relegation.
