Mikel Obi saw the hillarious side as Diego Costa threw his training bib in the direction of manager Jose Mourinho after being dropped to the bench in Chelsea’s fustrating draw with Tottenham on Sunday. Chelsea could not score against London rivals Spurs, with playmaker Eden Hazard starting in the main striker’s role instead of Costa. Left on the bench despite scoring the winner for the Blues against Norwich last week, Costa – seemingly realising he wasn’t going to get on – removed his pink bib in the second minute of injury time and flung it in the air, narrowly missing…

But a Georg Niedermeier own-goal left the visitors 3-1 down before Aubameyang grabbed their superb fourth goal and his second to inflict a third straight…

Gareth Bale’s first Madrid goal in three months just before halftime and Cristiano Ronaldo’s late penalty got Real back to winning ways a week after being humiliated 4-0 at home by Barca. And Benitez hinted that a lack of hard work may have been at the root of Madrid’s inferiority last weekend as he was quick to praise the difference in attitude of his players…
Jose Mourinho’s relationship with Costa came under renewed review after the Chelsea manager dropped the spanish striker for Sunday’s 0-0 draw at Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League. The point left the reigning champions rolling in the bottom half of the table, while Tottenham — now unbeaten in 13 league games since the defeat against manchester united– were left frustrated after failing to take a chance to put pressure on the top four. But it was Mourinho’s decision to leave Costa on the bench, having clashed with the Spain international at half-time of the mid-week Champions League win away to…
Chelsea coach Jose Mourinho has said that the Premier League champions had produced their best performance of the campaign after they drew 0-0 at in-form Tottenham Hotspur today. Chelsea have had little to be happy about of late and although the result only moved them up to 14th place in the standings, Mourinho, who dropped out of form striker Diego Costa, was encouraged by what he saw. “It was the best Chelsea performance of the season, against a dangerous team,” said the Portuguese, who saw Eden Hazard impress in an unfamiliar role as a lone striker. “My players did everything…
Arsenal witnessed saw star player Alexis Sanchez and centre-back Laurent Koscielny taken off during Sunday’s 1-1 draw at Norwich City in the Premier League. The Gunners had hoped to go joint top with leaders Manchester City, but instead find themselves in fourth place, two points off the pace and also below Leicester City and Manchester United. And their chances of closing that gap will diminish should either player be ruled out long-term, with Chile forward Sanchez in particular an early contender for the league’s Player of the Season awards. The pair appear set to join an absentee list that already…

Striker Daniel Sturridge and captain Jordan Henderson made comebacks from injury as Klopp’s side laboured to a victory that sent them up to sixth place in the table. Sturridge, waylaid by a knee problem, made his first appearance since Klopp took charge last month, while midfielder Henderson,…
A clinical Gareth Bale header and a Cristiano Ronaldo penalty gave Real Madrid a much-needed 2-0 victory over Eibar in La Liga on Sunday, following their thrashing by leaders Barcelona last weekend, and put them six points behind the MSN led team. The Welshman scored his first goal since the end of August when he nodded in a Luka Modric cross two minutes before halftime against the small Basque club who have surprised this season and went into the game with one defeat from eight matches. Real were made to work hard against a battling Eibar but Ronaldo secured the…
Arsenal can now add Alexis Sanchez and Laurent Koscielny to ther injury list as they got a 1-1 draw at Norwich City on Sunday that prevented them drawing level with Premier League leaders Manchester City. Sanchez assisted Mesut Ozil for Arsenal’s 30th-minute opener at Carrow Road, but after Lewis Grabban had equalised just before halftime, the influential Chilean left the fray clutching his right hamstring. Centre-back Koscielny had already departed by that stage, having been replaced by Gabriel in the 11th minute, leaving Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger with seven senior players on the sidelines. Arsenal ended the weekend two points…
