Great stuff. I feel guilty now about having any doubts about Costa. He must be the most natural goalscorer we've had since JImmy Floyd, all that's on his mind when he runs on is finding the back of that net.

1-1
What a player, thats 5 in 4 games so far...
Yes, that's my thoughts exactly.
Still we've equalised, so no worries.
Just having someone who knows what that big rectangular thing with a net attached is for has been welcome change.
Ramires on for us (schurrle off)
Not sure what the formation will be - ram on the right or in the middle?
Edit: Oscar on the right, ram in the middle and cesc pushed up.
I guess we will see oscar off for willian on 69 minutes.
2-1 :cool:
well he now has a hat trick!
"he scores when he wants"
Forget the rest, we've got the best.
I liked Torres, was sad (but understood that he had to go), but Costa is doing what Torres could never do.
I have no doubt that we would have lost this game last season.
Lets hope Remy gets a goal in the next 20 minutes - that would be a great day for us.
Is it weird that I was tempted to clap at my computer screen right then?
I stood up.
Yes, I still have to keep reminding myself that Costa is still only 25 ! He's probably not even reached his peak yet. Fantastic signing.
He could be our 1st choice striker for the next 7 years.

We seem to have a good mix of very talented young players, players in their prime at 27, and some ageing defenders.
I guess our next task is to replace Terry.
Wonderful
You're on fire today. Have you done the lottery ?
Absolutely awful defending - they have switched off.
The Remy goal was so important, otherwise Swansea would have had 5 minutes to throw the kitchen sink at us.
