Personally I don't buy the claims that Costa is the second-coming of something because he's managed to net in 2 games against newly promoted teams, the second of which was incredibly fortunate (though still a nice piece of skill). What if we spoke of Naismith that way? Chelsea's recent track-record with Strikers is about as good as
Moyes', even
Moyes could get a few goals out of Andy Johnson and Jelavic to start things off. For me it remains to be seen if Costa can keep it up against better opposition as the season wears on.
Our first 4 games we dropped points by failing to maintain concentration in the late stages of the game, if we can sort that out we'll beat them. I really hope Besic starts this one in a 4-3-3, disrupting their midfield is going to be the key to this game
