Chelsea Player Ratings From Premier League Victory Over Aston Villa As Diego Costa Impresses

19. Diego Costa (Remy, 81′) – 9

What a signing this striker is proving to be, who showed off his physical presence against Villa and was on hand to score his eighth league goal of the campaign.

Substitutions:

14, Andre Schurrle – 5

Came on for Hazard but did little to impress.

12. John Obi Mikel – 5

Came on for Oscar to add more defensive grit and was solid enough.

18. Loic Remy – 6

Replaced Costa late on and looked sharp when leading the line.
