5min in he felt some pain in the flexor.
If he is injured our chance of going far in the CHL drops dramaticly. Simply the only player we have, who has the speed and dribling ability to take on he’s man. Everybody else is stationary, which makes it easy to defend against. Without him there is non who can consistently start attacking moves, so we are left with just passing the ball to feet without stretching the defense or have any kind of change of pace with the ball.
For me not having an good substitute for Costa with some of the same abilities, is even worse than our problems in midfield.
