Costa

Cheating, diving, 'orrible, nasty man?

Discuss.

 

A perfect reflection of Mourinho on the pitch.

No wonder he called him the motm against Arsenal.

 

Saw an interesting pic re Costa. Apparently he is meant to be nineteen in this pic, nineteen!!!

I was laughing so much at all the slapping and grabbing against that Gooner centre back funny as.

 

Prefer Starbucks.

 

Keown - And likewise, I enjoyed the physical side of the game — I’d go in hard with my tackles and pinch someone occasionally — but I never actively tried to get someone sent off.

 

I did consider a coffee based title but it's early on a Monday morning and my sense of humour hasn't woken up yet.

 

Highlights of the key incidents here

 

No doubt Costa should have gone too. His shenanigans with Koscielny were enough to earn him a red card.

I don't know how the ****er keeps getting away with it. He's a real wind up merchant, gets opposition players sent off, but seems to get away with all sorts himself.

 

We wouldn't put up with a player of that kind at Anfield.

 

I think the days of him getting away with it are over. Refs will watch his performance on Saturday, see what a **** he made of Mike Dean and won't risk being equally ****ified by him in future.

 

Diego is sad that he's being portrayed as some kind of villain.

 

I agree, it's hard to get rid of a reputation once you have it.

 

I hope it all continues, it's highly amusing.

 

What does Costa do on the pitch other than look for a fight?

 

He whispers in your ear what he did to yer ma last night.

 

Are you just wondering why Rodgers didn't sign him to replace Suarez?
Both also have the strange ability to commit endless red and yellow card offences, but not get sent off.
Neither's been dismissed in the Premier League, IIRC.

Imagine the two South Americans as a strike pairing.
Bloody nightmare.

 

Both in the same team? I imagine they'd end up fighting each other at some point.

 

And an Arsenal player getting sent off.

 

I had a good drink with a couple of the old England rugby team, who shall remain nameless, one night several years ago now. I asked why it always kicked off between them and the French. They told me it was Brian Moore. Apparently, he can speak almost fluent French. What he was saying to them about their wives, girlfriends mothers, etc, was less than complimentary. The Froggies would lose their rag and kick off, and invariably give a penalty away.
