Costa not training

LONDON. — Diego Costa is barely training despite leading the race for the English Premier League soccer’s Golden Boot, according to his Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho. Costa’s eighth goal of the season set up Saturday’s 3-0 win over Aston Villa, but hamstring problems are said to have limited his involvement in training. “He cannot be on top of his game,” said the Portuguese boss.

“He’s doing almost nothing in training. He’s just resting and recovering from the tight muscle he has.”
Mourinho added: “I don’t care about Diego’s goals. For me it’s important that the team score enough goals to win.

“I know a striker scoring goals is always nice for him and for his confidence, especially for a player like him who is not training as he should.” — BBC Sport.
