Álvaro Morata

With all that said, i think he is most suited to play alongside another striker. I really doubt he will play up top alone.

All we need now is Sanchez from Arsenal and that will complete our transfers. Not too concerned about not getting any full backs, quite happy with Mosses and Alonso with Azpilicueta as back up

We need RWB and maybe even LWB more than we need attacking midfielder  you don't say no to Alexis Sanchez but I would sleep tight even if we "only" manage to improve both our wingback positions  

Hazard, Willian, Pedro, Musonda, Baker, Boga ... more than enough quality, talent and depth IMO

Fucking get in -well pleased about this. An intelligent footballer, proven scorer, but without the tantrum baggage of Costa

No I was Thinking about the 4-2-4 !

So let's make them regret that business by making him one of the best striker in the game.

 

I fully trust Conte and morata in this task.

 

He will be fantastic for us!

 

Edit: somehow my Tapatalk app is not replying right now. This was a answer to clockwerk post:

 

"From a risk and reward concept absolutely. Mbappe is already one of the best and huge potential. Mbappe could walk into any starting squad with the exception of Barca, and possibly Madrid.

How about Morata at age 25? He has neither great potential or great body of work.  Madrid fans i know are calling it their best piece business since signing Ronaldo. Only Madrid fans who are gutted are those who are sentimental because he is a Castilla product"

Flawless music taste

Hazard - Morata a perfect pair in terms of speed.

Only 58?!

[termninja 5,290]

Really happy we signed him! Everyone at the club will be more relaxed and optimistic now. I also believe he will work great with Cesc and could break into being Spain's n1 striker. Good luck lad!

I'm still unsure on the guy as he's still got a lot to prove but I'll admit he's a great player and for only 58M = bargain 

[Barbara 15,149]

 

And people fucking complain about the board. I rest my case

[Dahnald 256]

Funny seeing the ManScum fans on Twitter bashing on Morata while it was him they wanted before they signed Lukaku.

Oh, look who's back

Right. So first thing's first - happy to end our striker hunt. Secondly, as some of you know I don't rate the guy as highly but I'll keep my mind open as always. Thirdly, my main problem was the outrageous fees that were coming out - the 70/80m's. But we've apparently got him at £58m (initial) which isn't bad at all. 

It'll be great to have a striker who's known for his reliable link up play, but I hope Morata is ready for the Chelsea challenge. This is the first club where he'll be the undisputed number one striker, so he has some pressure. 

For £58m, he's a better buy than Lukaku at £75m for sure. Almost £20m less! A lot less pressure. The move feels good. Well done to the board who managed to negotiate this fee. Low key hoping that Conte's new contract enforced this and maybe another big signing (Alex Sandro ).
