The last Spanish striker we signed was Costa and scored his debut goal against Burnley, our first game is against Burnley Morata.....

Main thing I hope Morata does well is create good link up play with Hazard. That's Costa's biggest drawback in this team, the amount of times he would mess up a 1-2 with Hazard or make the wrong decision in their build up play was tiresome. Not since Eto'o have we had a striker who was on the same level as Hazard when it came to making opportunities for one another. We'll obviously miss the physicality in-you-face attitude of Costa but I'm happy to forego those if it means Hazard, Pedro, Willian and Morata are scoring a proportionate amount to see us succeed. 

I dream to see goals like this where our CF is on song with our more naturally creative and decisive players.

So tl;dr: Idc if Morata doesn't score 30 goals a season as long as he makes the team more fluid and suited to Hazard

I also see people were complaining about his miss in the CS.  Personally, I thought it was a very difficult chance.  If that's disappointing, then what would happen if he did this:

He also confirmed that he wasn't aware of Conte's interest in him this summer, and that Chelsea directly became his preference when he knew.

Great attitude there. Hopefully it could paid off, and he can succeed here.

Seems mentally weak. Costa would thrive on criticism. It's gonna be a long season

Absolutely. He also seems to prefer his eggs sunny side up instead of boiled. 

Just another baseless piece of information I got from that snippet like yourself.

Because the person you're quoting didn't read the article.

Tbh don't think I've ever met anyone that doesn't prefer his/her eggs sunny side up.

Apparently Conte wasn't a part of the "He did fine this preseason" crew.

 

Probably because he clearly didnt.

Go away with your bullshit.

The guy only joined a couple of weeks ago and didnt have as much training as the others.

Its not bullshit though is it?

 

If "He won more headers than Batsuayi in 12 minutes" had looked good the few times he played this preseason we wouldnt be starting fucking Boga right now. People were already pulling out the Torres Era excuses last week.  He looked devoid of confidence, and thats why he isnt starting today. Conte is, rightfully so, protecting him.

It's really not difficult to understand. Morata is not a winger, therefore boga hasnt replaced morata. Michy is fitter at the moment probably which is why he starts. Morata to come on early second half.

So, you think Conte played our no.9 out of position, potentially screwing over his confidence, in an attempt to get him to run more and build up fitness just to relegate him to the bench when the season starts?

 

I don't know man.

Conte tried him there to see if it would work. It clearly didn't.
