Diego Costa: Chelsea striker is dropped after dispute over fitness with coach

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/38617783

It seems that he has had a few tantrum s recently including one with Conte about wanting to be substituted, he had an on field row with Pedro recently (not that much of a fuss was mad of it by the commentary team at the time) and now this.

What do we think? Massive media coverage or low key reporting? Had you heard this news?
 
I posted this news on the specubollox thread when it broke, Skoorb, but it does deserve it's own thread.
I've mixed feelings about it. It causes Chelsea huge problems and possibly could derail them for a while and although that's not a bad thing as it helps us, it does help our rivals too, including the rags.

Ahh, missed that Rising :003:

I know what you mean about a mixed blessing but overall anything which causes the 'perfect club' some pain is ok in my book. Getting a bit tired of them being described as being the best club in all the whole world that has ever existed since the beginning of time.

Second-best club in all the world that has ever existed since the beginning of time.
That title belongs to the rags. Always has. Always will.

If someone offered me £800K a week I would be sorely tempted, especially if I think I have been on the rough end of deals from Refs. It is a short career and you make the most money you can before your legs go. I mean to some of us this is a lot of years salary in a week and tax free I understand.
