Chelsea vs Bournemouth – Team News, Costa dropped again!

Costa benched, bold move to start with no recognised striker against a team conceding 2 goals a game! Hazard played very well up top against Spurs so let’s hope he reproduces in this game.

Courtois being back is the other big news, along with Baba getting a start – one must think Jose has gone for all out attack. Crazy how Cesc has kept his place after a terrible performance against Tottenham, lets hope we see some RLC magic at 60 minutes.

Chelsea: Courtois; Ivanovic (c), Zouma, Cahill, Baba; Fabregas, Matic; Willian, Oscar, Pedro; Hazard

Subs: Begovic, Azpilicueta, Mikel, Loftus-Cheek, Traore, Remy, Diego Costa

Bournemouth: Boruc, Daniels, Cook, Francis, Smith, Arter, Gosling, Surman, Ritchie, Stanislas, King

Subs: Allsop, Cargill, Butcher, O’Kane, Kermorgant, Murray, Rantie
