It is fair to say that the Chelsea FC attack is not firing on all cylinders. The Blues have struggled to score goals this season from open play and it often seems that their best attack is a free kick from the wild-haired Brazilian on the right wing. Chelsea have scored just 16 goals in the league and some big names, most notably Eden Hazard, have not scored yet this season. One of the chief suspects in Chelsea’s struggles is striker Diego Costa.

Last season the former Atletico Madrid man came out like gangbusters and scored goals for fun against English opposition. He was being discussed as one of the best strikers the world, much less the Premier League. He was still a wind-up artist but the goals were coming in fast and furious to cancel out his antics. This year it has been just a bit different for Costa. He has scored twice in the league so far and has been unlucky at times but has not looked anywhere near the threat he was last season.

His desperation to score has seen him drift out wide to receive the ball and drop so far deep that he tries to become the creator when he should be focused on finishing. So with the Chelsea FC attack struggling the way it has and Diego Costa in particular, we ask the question of whether or not Diego Costa should be dropped. We asked our staff and here is what they said. Let us know what you think in the comments!
