Antonio Conte won a battle of wills with Diego Costa after Chelsea's leading scorer demanded to be taken off during the 3-0 Premier League victory over Leicester at Stamford Bridge.
The Spain international started the game on four yellow cards for the season, meaning another booking would see him miss the highly anticipated clash with Manchester United on October 23.
With Chelsea leading 3-0 - courtesy of goals from Costa, Eden Hazard and Victor Moses - the Blues striker gestured angrily towards his manager that he wanted to be substituted 20 minutes before time to avoid a potential suspension, but Conte was having none of it - despite Costa holding his leg late on.
