The club have just said they are monitoring the injury I reckon he should be fit to start.

I imagine he will be rested, maybe come on second half

I would imagine Remy will start, Costa has had this niggling hammy injury for a while now and I think we should rest him

Its a shame because he has made a fantastic start to his Chelsea Career.

we have got some big games coming up so I think he can be rested against the swans

Swansea is a possible 3 points and Mourinho would rather points on the board as quickly as possible, Costa will start

im sure he would see Swansea as a less trickier tie than both Schalke and City

Remy will start

I rate Swansea as potentially more difficult than Schalke tbh

Swansea won away at old Trafford and are currently 2nd, This should be a stroll in the park right MonTheChels

supporters of Carrick care greatly about Costa apparently?

not saying that at all.

Im saying that I would assume jose would want a strong start at potentially one of the stronger teams in our CL group and a our best striker Fit for the game against City

this is going to sound exceptionally arrogant.... but we could proabably get away with resting a fair few players in our group stage matches and still top the group

He'll play until he is definitively and outright injured.
Jose wants the title, starts against Swansea.

Ahh ffs my ff strikers are sturridge and costa

I hope Remy starts.

We'll need Costa this season. Rushing him back is incredibly risky. Stick him on the bench

Costa needs to be fit for City so protect him now if we must

Considering timing to train with the side etc just how long has Remy had with his new team mates? With the international break it can't be long. I think its more likely Drogba would start than Remy.

Costa will start, apparently its nothing serious and he pulled out of the squad as a precautionary measure.

With the international break it can't be long. I think its more likely Drogba would start than Remy.

----------------------------

I don't think we'll see Drogba start a single game this season unless both Costa and Remy are unavailable. Even then I think it's more likely we'd see Schurrle start up front.

We haven't been feeding Drogba so that he can gorge on Arsenal defenders when we play them

reminds me of a bit involving police dogs from the Simpsons

I reckon Costa will start.
