Chelsea striker Diego Costa ensured that his side remained on top of the Premier League table as his sparkling form continued in a 3-0 win over Aston Villa on Saturday.

Chelsea boss Joe Mourinho insists that Costa, a 32 million pounds pre-season signing from Atletico Madrid, is still not fully fit and is only capable of playing one game a week, Sport24 reported.

But the striker looked in fine fettle at Stamford Bridge as he struck in the second half to take his season's tally to eight goals before creating winger Willian's late strike.

Oscar's early opener had threatened to open the floodgates and Mourinho's men never looked troubled as they saw out this one-sided contest with ease, the report added.
