Chelsea striker Diego Costa has gone on to make a perfect start for the Blues, scoring in each of their three Premier League wins, but reiterated that team interest takes precedence over individual interests.

The Brazil-born Spanish international already has four goals to his name after finding the back of the net twice against Everton on Saturday.

"We have started really well and it is always good to have a great start," he said.

"Last year we did the same and now this year too."

"It is nice to score goals but for me the most important thing is the team wins but I am happy I scored and helped the team win."

"Our team is a great team, it is really important to achieve great things and I am really happy to be here."

Scoring a total of 36 goals last season, Costa helped Atletico Madrid win the La Liga crown, coupled with a runner-up finish in the Champions League.
