With the Premier League title wrapped up, Chelsea decided to reward Michy Batshuayi, the man who scored the goal that did it, his first Premier League start of the season. This left Diego “The Menace” Costa with some free time on the bench, where he apparently worked up an appetite during the first half against Watford. So, during the break, he wandered into the press room to pilfer some food.
Ha venido Diego en el descanso a la zona de prensa a por queso
Having seen what Diego did to John Terry the other day, no one tried to stop him.
Being members of the press, they did rat him out to his manager after Chelsea’s 4–3 win, though. Naturally, Chelsea manager Antonio Conte was flaming mad about this thoroughly unprofessional behavior.
Conte is told about Costa's half-time visit to the press buffet. Says he's "angry" with Costa for not bringing him some chocolate.
If you’re going on a halftime food run, you always grab some chocolate for the gaffer. That’s rule №1. Don’t be surprised if Costa gets sold off for this.

David Luiz and Diego Costa give out hugs to Stamford Bridge staff
When you’ve got a 10-point lead in February, you just want to hug whoever you can
Normally when you see David Luiz or Diego Costa coming at you, you know that pain is sure to follow. But since Chelsea have the Premier League title all but wrapped up, they’re taking the time to try and change that perception amongst the staff at Stamford Bridge.
As they arrived for Chelsea’s match against Swansea on Saturday, both players surprised a different staffer with a hug.
Costa went on to score the third goal in Chelsea’s 3–1 win, so these pre-match hugs might become a ritual. Hopefully they become less and less terrifying for these staffers with time.
Diego Costa displays his mastery of one English word and some jibberish
Second-half goals from Willian and Diego Costa gave Chelsea a 2-0 win over mighty Hull City and left the Blues feeling good after the match. As a result, Eden Hazard did a little work for Chelsea TV, first interviewing Willian, who dedicated his goal to his mother.
After that heartwarming moment, Diego Costa emerged from the dressing room and tried to evade his mic-wielding teammate before demonstrating that he knows the word “beautiful” and can speak in tongues as if possessed by a demon. Which would explain so much.
Marcin Wasilewski sacrifices Leicester’s EFL Cup campaign to get humanity’s revenge on Diego Costa
A pair of goals from Shinji Okazaki gave Leicester an early 2-0 lead against Chelsea in the EFL Cup, but defenders Gary Cahill and Cesar Azpilicueta scored on either side of halftime to equalize for the visitors. In the second half, with survival in the competition on the line, Chelsea brought in destroyer of worlds Diego Costa and in the 89th minute, Leicester defender Marcin Wasilewski was sent off for delivering a blatant forearm to Costa’s face, seemingly for no reason other than the fact that he is Diego Costa.

Diego Costa’s unexplainable run of never having been sent off as a Chelsea player came to an end in their FA Cup loss to Everton and it happened with a tribute to Luis Suarez.
A look back at the masked tradition of “Zorro team” Chelsea
Chelsea manager Guus Hiddink announced in his Friday press conference that Diego Costa broke his nose on an academy player’s head (side note: that kid must have a metal Terminator head) during training. He then dubbed his side “a Zorro team” in reference to the fact that Costa will be their fourth player to wear a mask this season.
Chelsea have been at the forefront of masked footballing for a number of years now. Here’s a look back…
Jose Mourinho unimpressed with Diego Costa’s bib toss
Jose Mourinho and the shell of the footballer known as Diego Costa reportedly got into a verbal altercation at halftime of Chelsea’s 4-0 win against Maccabi Tel Aviv in the middle of the week, but Mourinho claimed after the match that the two made up with “kisses and cuddles.” Which can only be code for fighting each other until their bodies could no longer function due to blood loss.
Diego Costa: “Don’t blame Mourinho for my fatness”
Chelsea players have been coming to Jose Mourinho’s defense after starting the season with four losses in eight matches. John Terry and Cesc Fabregas both talked up his talents, but Diego Costa has mounted a different defense, blaming himself and his fellow players.
You’re dumb, fight me by Diego Costa
You’re dumb. And because you’re dumb, you’re going to fight me for saying that you’re dumb and then you’re the one who is going to get in trouble for fighting because that’s how dumb you are.
