Costa Warns Rivals:I Will Lift Chelsea To The Top Again

Diego Costa
Diego Costa Will Form Again
The Chelsea striker has been off colour this season, scoring just one Premier League goal in six appearances and was at the centre of the controversy during the win over Arsenal last month.
He was hit with a three-game ban for his altercation with Laurent Koscielny and was dropped by Vicente Del Bosque for Spain's Euro 2016 qualifiers with Luxembourg and Ukraine.
Last week he admitted he was out of shape at the start of the season, but the 27-year-old, who hasn't featured since Porto in the Champions League on September 29, believes he is ready to replicate last season's form.
“It’s been really important for me," he told Chelsea TV. "I have been able to train with my own specific schedule to help me get better and better.
“The sessions have been good and I have been able to benefit from being here. I’ve been working on what I needed to work on and I am happy about that."
Chelsea face Aston Villa on Saturday with both managers under pressure.
Following the Blues last defeat to Southampton Jose Mourinho staged an incredible post match speech in which he declared he was still the best manager the club had ever had and demanded the board backed him.
He was given a vote of confidence although pressure remains with reports the club have a contingency plan in place.
Diego Simeone and Carlo Ancelotti have been linked with the position with the later admitting he wanted to return to England.
Tim Sherwood, meanwhile, is also fighting for his job with Villa third bottom after eight games.
The club's chairman Randy Lerner is thought to be considering Brendan Rodgers and David Moyes should Sherwood not turn things around.

Ronaldo And Messi Stats Shows Who's Best Of All Time

Bests of all time Victory in football's biggest tournament would play a huge role for either player's legacy, particularly in the long-term, and it looks incredibly likely that the 2018 edition will be the final attempt for both men. As a result, there was always going to keen interest in exactly how Ronaldo and Messi fare. And, well, three games in and their form is diametrically opposed. Ronaldo is in the running for the Golden Boot after scoring four goals in his opening two fixtures, including a stunning hat-trick against a hotly fancied Spain team. MESSI VS RONALDO DEBATE Meanwhile, Messi just found the back of the net in Russia only in his last outing vs Nigeria and missed a vital penalty in the 1-1 draw with Iceland. These developments led to a spike in support for Ronaldo to be considered the greatest of all time, with this summer exemplifying his brilliant form over the last few years.

Vardy: It Was Easy To Reject Arenal Move

    Jamie Vardy says it was easy for him to reject a move to Arsenal, insisting both his head and his heart told him to stay at Leicester City. After playing a crucial role in last season's surprising Premier League title win, the England international was the subject of a bid from the Gunners which triggered his £22 million release clause. Instead, the striker opted to remain at the King Power Stadium and signed a new deal with the Foxes. And Vardy, 29, says it was an easy decision to make. “I was in a hotel room [in Chantilly] for so many hours of every day with nothing to do. You had a lot of time on your hands," he told The Guardian . “I am not going to beat around the bush – every time I thought about it, and every aspect of it I thought about, both my head and my heart were saying to stay at Leicester, which is why I made my decision to stay. “There were loads of reasons. You get that much time to think about, every single thing down to the tea lady. You think about w...
