Robbie Savage: 'Costa threw his bib? I threw my boots'

Robbie Savage tells a story of how he once threw his boots at ex-Derby boss Nigel Clough after being disgruntled at being substituted in a match against Nottingham Forest.

The former Wales international was speaking after Diego Costa threw his bib at Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho on Sunday after being an unused substitute.

"I got taken off for Derby and threw my boots, but I played the next game," Savage told Mark Chapman on BBC Radio 5 live.

"I wasn't happy that I got taken off, he (Clough) hammered me - but I played the next week. So this might work in Costa's favour."
