If Sterling did what Costa did, do you think he would have been treated the same?

no I doubt it , but there's a difference between having a gripe against the different ways they deal with players and arguing whether costa deserved it or not. On top of that claiming there's an outright campaign against chelsea solely is odd.

I think Costa deserved his ban but also that there were far more obvious offences that went unpunished by the FA in the past. It's just annoying that these "inconsistencies" are rather predictable. I also think it's reasonable to believe that Costa and Mourinho usually get harsher treatments than most (although some may argue that's warranted)

English international Cahill? If Costa did what Cahill did against Kane, there would have been an uproar. His tackles on Aluko and Sanchez weren't worthy of a 3-game suspension IMO. If you are talking about the dive, Costa (x2) and Fabregas were wrongly booked for simulation which is what you would expect more than Cahill rightly getting booked.
