Ahead of Chelsea’s FA Cup clash with Peterborough today, Peterborough defender Ryan Tafazolli had hoped Chelsea’s Diego Costa would start against Peterborough.

Tafazolli revealed he wants to test himself against the best.

“I wanted Costa to play,” Tafazolli told Daily Express.

“He is the best striker in the country, the best I would have played against and I want to test myself against someone who is one of the best in the world.

“But Batshuayi is not far off Costa anyway.”
