Diego Costa

[Henrique 9,133]

I think his season is over, and is set to miss the WC too.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

the number of injured players is too damn high!

Hope it isnt as bad as it looks, but season is over for him i think...meaning we will stuck with some average striker.

[Polo7 3,496]

Breaks his leg yet he still scores. Torres.....

[duo11bluecl 207]

OK who is left? Jackson Martinez? Cavani? Mario Mandzukic?

Either way Costa won't join us now

[Special Juan 27,439]

Has he broke his leg?

[BloodIsBlue 291]

I don't think it's broken, from the above angle showed on TV it looks like he could have came in with worse angles on the post. Small proximal tibial fracture is possible but it could also have been his knee injury made worse the energy from the hit. The way he holds his knee leads me to think its the knee problem coming back his whole leg down to his feet would be swollen and painful if it was a bad fracture.

Breaks his leg yet he still scores. Torres.....

Diego Costa memes incoming...

[Stats 7,059]

No break. Been confirmed as a fresh wound. Whew! Bad news he probably will make it for us but good news is he may be the world class striker we capture for the summer. Had it been a break, all of a sudden the search for a striker goes into chaos again.

He'll be OK...

Diego Simeone's head of press @Pepepasques re: Diego Costa: "Don't worry guys, they just need to fix the post" !

[duo11bluecl 207]

Wasn't Rooney suffered a similar thing last season and out for like 1 month? Admittedly he was kicked and not hit by the post.

[RVNDXM 23]

Just a cut, like I thought.

[Toli 977]

if he has a serious injury, we are really f-ed in terms of summer transfers. falcao, now him. there are literally no strikers available anymore...

edit: too late. so its only a cut, good

[petre.ispirescu 4,928]

Good news then. Phew.

[laeth 527]

Will he be out for our game?

[Cosmin 2,484]

Let's just hope he's out until after our Champions League games. Then he can come back, help them win La Liga, and then join us, the Champions League winners

[xPetrCechx 13,563]

So... for how long he's out?

Maybe 1-2 weeks.

I think one big difference between costa vs torres, aguero, forlan and falcao was costa played for the team and scores, while as the other ones atletico fed them all game...

A huge reason why atletico has been very good this season.

So costa playing more for the team, while torres/aguero etc.., the team played for them?
