Finally, Costa plans to go or stay?
Two months ago, when Diego Costa and coach Conte began to conflict from a quick job chase message, fans and the insiders of Stamford Brigde witnessed a seemingly new, but in fact, the Blues have been in a long, noisy corner.
Costa was fired by Conte via text message for many disciplinary actions, but anyway, the Italian coach should respect his student more and behave professionally.
Costa wore an Atletico shirt, continuously published against Conte and of course, no longer wanted to forgive Chelsea. There are many rumors about the striker's future, including a move to any club to play temporarily before returning to Atletico in January 2018 being considered the most feasible.
However, Atletico coach Simeone admitted that there has been no information from the leadership about Costa's case.
What about AC Milan? With a summer full of new deals, the fact that Rossoneri paid attention to Costa as previously rumored has also been completely extinguished.
Costa is currently on a diet because he can't go and stay and no one will give him a chance to compete. This striker understands why Chelsea bought Morata and even Costa himself yesterday frankly stated that even if he was named, he would not play.
Conte handles Costa case too "crazy"
In fact, Conte's message of chasing Costa was truly an act of follies, it brought with it many unknown consequences that even the Italian coach himself did not foresee.
First, Costa sent that chasing message to his Chelsea teammates. No one has yet given specific information about whether Chelsea players will have another "main match" like under Mourinho in his second term, but the loss to Burnley in round 1 is truly a wake-up call.
What will Chelsea's players think about their coach doing the same thing and will they wonder if Conte does the same thing to him? And at Stamford Brigde, Conte knows better than anyone about the "black forces" that always exist.
Then there is the transfer issue, if Conte and Costa are still calm, The Blues are not at fault for willingness to spend nearly 75 million pounds to buy Alvaro Morata. £75 million is no longer a high figure in the transfer market at this time, but if they save this large amount, Chelsea will reduce their burden in paying players, staff, raising youth facilities, etc.
Finally, the look of owner Abramovic. In Chelsea over the years, there has only been one person who has been "king", that is the Russian President. Abramovic's impatience is a matter of course for everyone and Conte is certainly not out of the picture.
Remember the case of Mourinho being betrayed 2 seasons ago, even though he knew the players had such actions, Abramovic still chose to fire Mourinho instead of chasing the betrayers. If he sacks Mourinho, Abramovic will only have to pay someone else to be a replacement coach, but if he sacks players, this billionaire will have to spend many times more money to buy bright stars.
Abramovic is still a businessman, and he is already a businessman, doing whatever is most profitable, Conte should remember this before it's too late.
Chelsea need to finalize the future of Costa soon
Yesterday, when goalkeeper Courtois posted a photo with Costa with the line: "Costa will stay" on his personal page and received countless "brickets" from fans and the Belgian goalkeeper, he also had to apologize for his seemingly harmless behavior. Thus, Costa being welcomed in the near future if he stays at Chelsea is uncertain.
Conte's biggest problem now is how to "really" Costa and play for Chelsea in the near future because after all, this striker is still a true star and is very familiar with the Premier League environment. If Costa accepts to return and accompany Morata, The Blues will have an extremely fearsome attack.
It will be extremely difficult, but more than ever, Conte needs to end this sad play soon. The new season has begun, the opponents are getting stronger and stronger, if they don't look in the same direction together, everything will collapse for Conte at some point.
