Ighalo, Moses play as Chelsea beat Watford

And with time running out Chelsea snatched all three points, Costa released by substitute Cesc Fabregas to leave Conte dancing with joy on the sidelines. Much has been made of Costa’s attitude and behaviors already this season, but one thing is clear, Costa is the best on-pitch representation of Conte’s personality, passion, and attitude among this Chelsea squad. But it was the same against West Ham.

“It’s very good for him, I’m happy for him”, Courtois told the Evening Standard when asked about Batshuayi.

“I’m pleased for Moses, Cesc and Batshuayi because their impact was very good”. “We know they have a very good team – but we will see after the game how hard it is for us”. “These are the games you want to play in and win”. The manager must choose the starting XI and then find a solution during the game.

“This game wasn’t easy because we were 1-0 down”.

“With the defenders we have we have a few players but it’s important to understand that I don’t just buy to buy – they need to improve my team”.

The 47-year-old exploded with emotion when Diego Costa scored the 89th minute victor and even shared his joy with a lucky section of the Chelsea home supporters. But I’m pleased because this has happened.

After a drab first half in which neither side created a chance of any note, it was the hosts who hit the front through Etienne Capoue’s fine strike in the 55th minute.

The defeat means Walter Mazzarri is without a win since taking charge, following on from last weekend’s 1-1 draw at Southampton.

Mazzarri added: “Of course we will shake hands”.

“I hope to continue also, but we know that he must pay attention in all situations”.

“We have lots of players on the bench”. So, tonight, I’m not going to sleep very well. “We complicated our life”, he said. Both goals were our errors. We were not focused at either goal.

And midfielder Valon Behrami believes while Watford have shown they can hold their own against a big side, there is still room for improvement.

– Since returning to the Premier League, Cesc Fabregas has more assists than any other player (26).
