Álvaro Morata

[Beigl 1,387]

I am so glad that in the end we bought him and not Lukaku. Our whole team is so much better when someone with proper technique is up top. And his header was out of this world.

Except for the fuck up in the last minute just before their free kick, Alvaro was absolutely phenomenal. One of the top No. 9 performances in the Chelsea shirt recently.

That can happen to anyone really a lot of stupid shit happens in the last few seconds of a game. Literally happens all the time. 

[Blue Armour 4,312]

Just give him a red cape, and he looks like Superman on the pitch in this kind of form

Yes, it is certainly not going to destroy the image and performance he put in today. Phenomenal.

[Blusan Alamb 295]

His heading is quality, but finishing with his feet leaves a lot to be desired.

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

His technical ability is ahead of any striker we've had probably since Jimmy. 

[xPetrCechx 13,563]

his dribble is awful.

Morata is a beast in the air 

[Milan 17,859]

Alvaro Morata has had a hand in 10 goals in his opening 10 Premier League games for Chelsea (7 goals, 3 assists) – only Diego Costa was involved in more in his first 10 for the club (11).

[Adnane 1,101]

One goal less than the mighty Harry Kane and the GOAT Aguero, same as wonderkid G. Jesus and "Better Finisher" Lukaku. 

Chelsea 1 point off United and Tottenham. 

Still, apparently, Chelsea in crisis, Morata not good enough, missing Costa. 

Beautiful journalism. 

[LAM09 6,778]

Lethal in the air but has to show more composure with the ball at his feet. Thankfully his late miss wasn't costly

[Milan 17,859]

World class header. It feels so refreshing to have a proper No. 9. A No. 9 that you can count on his header.

Him missing chances made him look like Torres but otherwise, yeah, he was phenomenal. His best all round performance for us so far.

I thought he was great vs Bournemouth aswell despite that ludicrous miss.

[Special Juan 27,439]

Now, let dissect what we saw as opposed to the last few games...A work ethic, running the channels and an ability to not just hold up the ball but drive at defenders. 

Much fucking better, but it has to continue. The header was brilliant, absolute top class, but this guy much continue to be angry every single game and not be weak.

But today mean more given United are better than Bournemouth. IIRC, all but 2 of his goals are headers. Really needs to sort out that feet of his.

[OneMoSalah 8,785]

Could of had a hattrick today. Just crucial moments his control let him down like when he feinted past Smalling and chose to do so again and also at the end. Class performance though.
