Diego Costa has not been very good this season. The Spain striker admitted himself that he returned from the summer break overweight, while his record of 21 goals in 37 games in his debut season has become just three in nine this campaign.

Reports emanated last week that Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho would look to root out the ‘bad apples’ in his under-performing squad, and the Sunday Mirror believe one of such ‘bad apples’ could be the struggling Costa.

Their man Andy Dunn claims the club will be on the lookout for two strikers in the January transfer window, including a replacement for Costa as they prepare to offload the 27-year-old.

Not only that, but Dunn reports Mourinho considered selling Costa back in the summer, but the Spaniard’s popularity within the squad spared him. Club captain is reportedly a fan of Costa’s, which makes sense considering their respective personalities.

As for potential striking targets, the Mirror believe Gonzalo Higuain is the most likely, while the Sunday Express have an EXCLUSIVE on the Blues chasing Atletico Madrid forward Antoine Griezmann, who would cost at least £40million.

I once suggested that Costa isn't a franchise striker.

Although he isn't to be blamed for the poor form that has been rocking his team-mates, you'll agree with me that his inclination to pick up fights when he should be scoring and his recent weight gain has partly contributed to our poor run.

Every top team possesses a focal point who delivers when called upon, in Costa's case, it is the contrary.

On the other hand, I've noticed he loves drifting wide these days, that's damn wrong, he's no striker, he is a centre-forward.

Strikers are known for their ability to peel off defenders and to run into space through the blind side of the defender. They are typically fast players with good ball control and dribbling abilities. It's their skill-set and on most occassions their body frame that helps them to circumvent defenders. Good examples of strikers are; Cavani, Suarez, Griezmann, Walcott, Aguero, Lavessi, Martial, Bony, Messi etc

Diego Costa isn't a striker and doesn't have a business with the wide areas. He's isn't a diminutive forward neither is he fast and tricky. He's a freaking centre-forward, our freaking target man. He is there to win long balls, hold-up play as teammates advance and to create space in the channels by occupying the two centre-backs. He is there to bury our chances.

I don't understand why he keeps moving to the flanks every now and then.

Sincerely, I don't understand the ninja at times.

That has been my problem with him. Always drifting wide and losing possession, before attempting to beat the opposing defender to death.
