2 strikers isn't enough, we need 3 at least. I think Morata, Llorente and Bats would be sufficient for us to survive the domestic season. Wasn't Morata/Llorente the strike partnership he used at Juventus? I could be wrong, but I think it was.

That's assuming Costa leaves.

I still think there's a good chance that there will be some form of reconciliation and he ends up staying.

Morata, Costa, Bats > Morata, Bats, Llorente

And Lowe admits Chelsea are now favourites to sign the 24-year-old, saying on ESPN FC: "On the face of it yes, 100 per cent it leaves Chelsea as the logical outcome (for Morata).

Morata looks like the weakest striker out of the 3 that have been headlining newspapers all month. I would rathrr Boletti or Lukaku ovet this guy. I really hope we are not going to settle for this guy to replace Costa.

Morata is the best fit for our team of the four top strikers "available" right now based on profile, I have zero doubts about that. He is fast, very good technique and passing while also having a high football IQ. 
The big concern is how he will adapt to the league, and how long each game he can last on his highest level. 

IF he manages to adapt, and improves his stamina, I think he will be a far more valuable player for us than Belotti or Lukaku. I just feel that £80m is a crazy price for him.

Play Moses as our striker all season and he'll get 20ish goals. Play Morata as our striker all season and he'll get 20ish goals. 

Why pay 70m+ for the latter? Does he have that much to his game other than goals?

He is exactly the striker thats not only about goals mate. 

I said it before and I still think, he would be better than Lukaku. But 90m is not even funny.

Can't believe people would want Lukaku for a higher price over this fella

Brilliant, brilliant signing if we do get him.

I've watched that video and hoesntly do not see what the fuss is about him. Good first touch and a bit of pace. His finishing is average for a so -called World class striker.

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

He has said that he will work for Conte "sooner or later" some time ago. Hopefully he can force the move, if we do interested in him.

So, one week ago-->  Lukaku>Morata by most people here.

Today, one week later after he rejected us--> Morata>Lukaku.

Hilarious.

Are you sure it isn't that the people who always preferred Morata, a group which includes me, are simply having more to say now? Have you seen people making comments which contradict what they were saying last week? I haven't, but then I don't always remember who said what.

Yes he does.

What can I tell you? You've seen the same performances I have. If the two of us have different assessments of what we've seen then there is no way to square that circle, but you asked the question  and 'yes' is my answer to it.

[Henrique 9,133]

Lets be honest, paying 60m for Morata is as stupid as you like. I mean, he is a good player? Definitely, but not worth the amount of money Real Madrid is asking. The reason is very simple: Morata is just a squad player for Real, and it seems in the future Zidane is thinking more about giving Asensio more playing time than giving Morata more chances.

You might point he scored 15 goals playing most of the season as backup to Benzema, but he is playing for Real after all and most of those goals were scored against weak sides. If you look at at his goal record for Juventus thats far from what you would expect from a 60m striker. He scored 7 goals in one Seria A season, and other 8 in another one, and thats it.
