This is Chelsea’s 2016/17 Christmas review

Player of the Season – Diego Costa

Chelsea have been brilliant in the last few weeks, and it’s not easy singling someone out for their impressive run.

But it’s difficult to look past striker Diego Costa, who has scored 12 goals for the Blues in the league this season.

The Spanish international struggled upfront for the club last season, netting 11 times in the league for the West London side, but has been totally reinvigorated under Conte this time around.

Even when they were going through their tricky spell in September, Costa continued to find the back of the net, netting twice against Swansea and the late consolation at home to Liverpool.

The 28-year-old has only failed to score in five Premier League games this season, and has been the best of an excellent Chelsea side so far this season.
