I meant him starting despite not scoring with a healthy option on the bench. Only real WC striker that could potentially is Kane or we go for someone slightly below that like Icardi. We were in need of another first choice WB in the summer but look what happened. The board are to blame for our frailties.

When is enough, though?

There probably isn't one. You're either gifted in a department or you're not

Confidence plays a big part. Some players are cocky whilst others need to build it up by scoring goals regularly.

Cesc always seems to look for the perfect goal tbh. I remember him missing a simple chance recently, as he elected to chip it rather than smash it pass the GK. Morata has scored goals at the highest level for big clubs (scored in the CL semi & final whilst at Juve), so nerves really shouldn't be an issue. Shame most of the chances that have fallen to him as of late haven't been instinctive situations.

I'm sure an offer of around £40m would interest Torino. He all-round game would offer us something we lack upfront & him being Italian might be another plus as well. I rarely follow any sort of media concerning the club due to the amount of idiots that have a platform which spout nonsense. I agree with the point that the Torres comparison after overstepping the mark. However, I doubt Morata would have the composure to finish like Torres did at the Nou Camp on current evidence.

Some players have to be given a pass because they excel elsewhere. Hazard's finishing lets him down on numerous occasions, but he can't be criticised because he has flair, is our best player, isn't part of his game and we would be a EL level side without him. Those are a few of the comments you'll come across.

They are falling to the wrong players. I'd say at least 75% of our chances in those games have either fallen to Bakayoko or Morata.

Goals win you games and it's as simple as that. Can't be spending £70m on a CF that can't even do on a regular basis And some of us weren't too fond of either. I'd urge the club to go for Belotti at a cut price. P.S. Everyone here is because we love the club. Criticizing players for failing to basics has NOTHING to do with loyality. [emoji58]

Benzema has been on the decline for some time & is far from the striker he was at Lyon. I believe Michy is a better finisher than Morata and have stated that on a few occasions. I never said he was outright better than him & should be starting every game. Horses for courses

You should realise by now that he was a super sub at his last two clubs for a reason whilst Michy netted 23 goals & provided 10 assists in a dreadful Marseille team before joining us. He's yet to play a run of games for us since joining us, but people like yourself have written him off as if he's in Morata's shoes. We'll be out of the top 4 before he gets any sort of boots on at this rate

Games like this come down to his reluctancy to change the obvious. Michy should have come on for Morata & Drinkwater for Bakayoko.

How did he play 90 mins? So fortunate Morata will take most of the shade off him after the match

That's what matters most in this game, though.

That's a given but our manager can't see that.

2 points thrown away. Morata deserves the credit for that

I'm done

He's a better finisher than Morata

Cesc is being replaced & Morata fails to hit the target again. I'm speechless

All came from Baka failing to make a basic pass

I heard

Courtois having one of his best games. Cahill clueless as norm

I meant someone that would actually compete for a starting spot & Michy doesn't fit that build. No doubt Costa would have scored.

Can't be leading the line for much longer. A CF this month is becoming an necessity

Missed so many chances in the first half
