Tottenham vs Chelsea: Jose Mourinho Drops Costa To Bench

Jose Mourinho has dropped Diego Costa to the bench for the clash against Tottenham after the club's top goal scorer in last season has become goal shy.

Jose Mourinho tells Des Kelly that Diego Costa is low on confidence as he names the Spaniard among his substitutes at White Hart Lane.

Costa has started every premier league match for the blues except when injured. The Spain striker has struggled for form this season, with Eden Hazard replacing him as a central striker while John Terry misses out through injury. See the line up graphic after the cut..

Spurs are without the suspended Dele Alli, so Ryan Mason deputises in midfield.
