Despite the sacking of Jose Mourinho, and a morale-boosting victory at Crystal Palace, it appears Chelsea remain mired in their winter of discontent.
The Telegraph are reporting a training ground bust-up between Oscar and Diego Costa. Costa and Oscar apparently had to be separated by team-mates following a heavy challenge by the Spanish striker. A source told the Telegraph that:
Oscar’s challenge was outrageous, it was straight into the knee of Costa and could have done him some real damage. That sparked a brawl between them and the other players had to stop it.
Despite a return to form recently, Costa was booed by the Chelsea support in the wake of Jose Mourinho's dismissal amid reports he is unsettled at Chelsea.
Oscar later tweeted about the incident:
For those who are talking to me and @diegocosta struggle today in training he's lying, he's one of my best friends and never fight ?

The presence of the winking face emoji leads one to question as to whether he is being entirely sincere. We may be looking at the greatest Oscar mystery that doesn't involve Leonardo Di Caprio.
