Diego Costa sends message to Michy Batshuayi after striker rescues Chelsea
By
Michy Batshuayi’s super-sub display in Chelsea’s 4-2 win over Watford has been praised by Diego Costa.
The Premier League champions looked on course for their third
consecutive Premier League defeat after Pedro’s opener was overhauled by
goals from Abdoulaye Doucoure and Roberto Pereyra.
But Conte’s decision to bring on Batshuayi changed the game as the
Belgian scored either side of Cesar Azpilicueta’s goal to inspire
Chelsea to a comeback victory. And the 24-year-old’s performance did not
go unnoticed with Costa, who hailed his former teammate on Instagram by commenting ‘top Michi’ on the striker’s celebratory post.

‘It was good for Michy to score two goals,’ Antonio Conte told Sky
Sports after the win at Stamford Bridge. ‘He had an impact in the game
and I’m very happy for him. ‘I think it’s important always to think for
the team not just for himself, or myself. We have to think for the team.
‘The goals were important for the team and important for the
confidence, but Michy has to continue to work this way and show with
every chance he deserves to play.’
