Diego Costa took just 19 minutes to fall foul of new Premier League laws


When the Premier League announced they would be cracking down on dissent during the 2016/17 season, most football fans thought two things.
1. Thank goodness footballers who are disrespectful towards referees will now ACTUALLY be punished with a yellow card.
2. Well, that's Diego Costa up a certain flavour of creek without a paddle.
At times, Chelsea's 'combustible' striker appears to spend more time moaning at referees than attempting to score goals. Whether he feels he's been fouled/abused/breathed on, the 'fiery' Spaniard tends to have some grievance with the officials - and he's not afraid to voice it.
