| Diego Costa's Chelsea future appears to be uncertain |
CHELSEA face two clear choices over what to do with Diego Costa - back him or sack him!
That is the opinion of Arsenal legend Martin Keown.
Costa was distinctly unimpressed at the weekend after he was dropped for the Blues’ goalless draw away to Tottenham.
The Spaniard appeared to throw his bib in the direction of his boss Jose Mourinho after he was left on the bench at White Hart Lane.
Mourinho could recall Costa, who has only scored four league goals this term, for the clash against Bournemouth on Saturday (5:30pm).
Costa has been talked up with a move away from Stamford Bridge, with former club Atletico Madrid believed to be interested in re-signing him.
And Keown thinks that Chelsea can’t continue to put up with Costa, who was pictured falling out of a nightclub this week, for much longer.
“If he continues to challenge Mourinho then it may end in tears. He’s not performing on the pitch and Mourinho doesn’t wait for anybody,” Keown told the Daily Mail.
“Last year Costa was a key player but that is quickly changing this season.
“Jose may even start using him to demonstrate his power. Costa is not the sort of person who wants to be pushed around or bullied, but Jose won’t be afraid of disciplining him.
“He’s a tough player to manage but not impossible so Mourinho either has to get him back on song or consider getting rid.
"Of course all it takes is a few goals and everything can change.”
