from the chelsea side that beat
champions leicester this evening,
the league leaders without their
striker, diego costa,
amid claims he's fallen out
with the club's coaching staff
and talk of a multi—million pound
offer on the table to move
to the chinese super league.
here's our sports
reporter, patrick gearey.
at the home of the current
champions, chelsea showed why
they are still favourites to be
the next ones.
a 3—0 win at leicester
is some statement.
the only questions
surround a man not here.
premier league top scorer
diego costa didn't travel after
a row with the coach about fitness.
reports suggested there
was big—money interest
in him from china.
diego costa!
reports chelsea's manager says
he knows nothing about.
you can listen to a lot of things.
if there are the problems,
you solve the problems
in the changing room.
never during a press conference.
yeah.
but i repeat — "if".
that word again — "if" costa did go,
he would be following the likes
of oscar in heading
for easters...
