the league that is Costa has done Arsenal here like, 9.9 dive to get mertasacker sent off and now a goal. Horrible cheating bastard
He's a lot like Neymar and Robben in some respects, very good footballer but ruins it by being a world class ****. Suited to that club perfectly.
Isn't there now some form of penalty (3 match ban etc) for diving etc ? if not there needs to be, he's not touched him for me like
Not sure if I'm honest mate. I agree that there should be stricter regulations put on diving but unfortunately it' a part of the game now. I imagine the red card will be appealed and probably rescinded but at the end of the day they've lost a player for 70 minutes of one of the biggest games of their season.
Mertersacker clipped him, he defended like a ****ing gimp. Deserved everything he got, Costa is clever and gets the game tipped heavily in Chelsea's favour. Arsenal can have no complaints.
There was contact with the ankle. Even if there wasn't any, he didn't get the ball, should have stayed on his feet. He's still got to beat Cech! No complaints from the pundits (Henry, Carragher and Souness) at half time either.
Merter-nacker was looking across at the linesman as he tackled Costa There was a slight touch but the triple salchow with pike by Costa persuaded the ref.
