We have to live in the immediate present." Diego Costa is among the established players whose place is under threat, with young stars such as Alvaro Morata and Paco Alcacer breaking through, while experienced pair Fernando Torres and Aritz Aduriz have enjoyed stellar seasons. "Diego can be judged on whether he plays well or not but he hasn't committed any crime - his conduct with us has always been correct," Del Bosque said. "There have been some episodes which haven't been edifying, but he has always shown a great attitude with us and we appreciate that."</blockquote>
