Diego Costa has lapped up the plaudits since bursting onto the Premier League scene last month.

The Spain international looks to have solved the striker crisis which crippled the Blues title charge last season.

Despite juggling hamstring problems during the opening weeks of the campaign, Costa has enjoyed a blistering start to life in west London, scoring seven goals in four league starts.

Though the former Atleti man is stealing the headlines, his impressive haul has only been made possible by incisive displays from summer signing Cesc Fabregas.

On Saturday, the former Arsenal man became the first player to provide at least one assist in six consecutive Premier League games.

The Spaniard has already put three on a plate for Costa and laid on another three for Blues team-mates, who are gobbling up the chances.

And cartoonist Mehmet Özdemir has captured Farebgas's persistent service perfectly in this superb cartoon. Check out more of his work here.
