Stan Collymore and former Man United defender Gary Neville were embroiled in a Twitter spat on Thursday about Chelsea striker Diego Costa.

The pair disagreed about whether Costa - facing a charge of violent conduct from the FA for a 'stamp' on Martin Skrtel - should be banned for the incident.

Costa will find out if his appeal has been successful on Friday, but while Collymore suggests the fiery Brazilian is guilty, Sky Sports pundit Neville and Match of the Day anchor Gary Lineker disagree.
