Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has praised in-form striker Diego Costa for doing well to keep his temper in check this season.
Courtois claims he enjoys having a player like Diego Costa on his side because he is a “winner”.
“In the last few games, Diego has controlled himself better when facing provocation from a defender,” Courtois told COPE.
“But Diego is a winner and I always prefer to have a player like that on my team. There was one day (earlier in the season) when he was already on a yellow card, and I had to send him to the dressing room as he was heading to talk to the referee.”
