FIFA 15: 10 New Premier League Transfers Who Should Be Rated Highest

2. Diego Costa €“ 85 (FIFA 14 €“ 84)

The re-addition of Didier Drogba pleased many Chelsea fans for its sentimental appeal but it was the signing of Diego Costa which really got the Blues restless for the the 2014/15 campaign to hurry up and start. For the past few seasons Chelsea have relied heavily on goals from their talented midfield to keep them in the upper reaches of the Premier League while their strikers have underperformed. The addition of the man who facilitated the fairy tale story of Atletico Madrid€™s victory of La Liga against seemingly insurmountable odds will certainly help Chelsea€™s cause. The £32 million striker scored an impressive 36 goals in all competitions last season, grabbing the attention of Chelsea€™s top brass. If pre-season games are anything to go by, Diego Costa will certainly not go the same way as big-money flop Fernando Torres as he has already scored four goals in just three games. The Spaniard is expected to be one of the players who will determine whether or not José Mourinho will recapture the league title next season. Expect Costa€™s phenomenal form to result in a small upgrade on his FIFA 14 rating, making him one of the most potent strikers in the top tier of English football.
