Chelsea fans aren’t the biggest advocates of Alvaro Morata. The forward saw his debut season in England end with a huge amount of speculation over his future, after missing chance after chance and having injury after injury.
Now, despite the player digging in his heels and claiming he wants to stay at Chelsea – and that the club want him to stay – he hasn’t exactly lit things up during pre-season, and has struggled to find the back of the net once again.
Coming back after the birth of his twins after only 48 hours saw him get some praise, especially in light of Anthony Martial going AWOL, but against Arsenal and again against Manchester City, he struggled.
Of course, you can’t score goals without the service, and Morata didn’t enjoy a huge amount from the Blues and their other attacking players – yet most people made their feelings on the forward clear once again.
Chelsea fans are left worrying about their team going into the season once again – and after another class display from Sergio Aguero, wondering why they can’t have a forward like that.
