El P. 1,354 Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Our plan A is solid, entertaining and efficient, only the finishing sucks. Actually I don't know if you can call it efficient if you lack the most important ingredient, but everything before the finish is better than anything we've seen in the last I don't know how many years.Yeah, I meant that - it is good, but because of bad finishing it sucks and is inefficient.

Goalkeeper actually spread his legs wide open, but Alvaro wasn't even looking at the keeper, he was just watching the ball and got keeper in his leg. Still hope that he can make it as a top striker, but that hope is really thin now. Jesus. Don’t say this shite has begun? One miss? Was bound to happen eventually but yeah... For that chance Oblak made a good save, sure we would of all done something differently in that position based or whatever because we all seen it live on the tele and thought he should of scored but thats life. The keeper was really quick to come out to him which means Morata has to make up his mind and Oblak made himself really big, which I thought was good goalkeeping. He would probably score that 9/10 times I imagine. Oblak is a top keeper, fair enough people would back somebody to score from that position but I don’t think it was that bad, he’s hit the target and it’s definitely going in if the keeper doesn’t save it. Hardly a crisis. You’d think he was Demba Ba with that last comment about thinking he won’t make it as a top striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a cyborg. More importantly he's clearly better than Lukaku and Costa. His all round play is so much better and pleasing to the eye and he's just the most talented of those three. In this game he created a shot from himself from literally nothing that almost went in. Our best players are allowed leeway from time to time. Of course - nothing wrong with wanting him to improve though. Don’t see much cynicism going on in here apart from one person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zakhov 253 Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 He had a good game. As for the missed chance, that's down more to great goalkeeping I think. Oblak rushed out quickly and made himself as big as possible, so credit where credit's due. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Skipper 20,609 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 My biggest worry with Morata is his lack of fight. It keeps rearing it’s head even though he has shown glimpses of fight. Thoroughly bullied by old school English defending. And his finishing? Well... Amblève., xPetrCechx and Blusan Alamb 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been here for months and has anyone actually told him that referees don't give cheap fouls? He keeps going down so easily every single game, expecting the referee to give a foul.

El P. 1,354 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Can we now please admit to ourselves the obvious things? Or are we still in the "give him time, he has good goal-scoring record" period? Man is Torres with magnificent heading skills. I'm not saying that we could've bought better striker. But let's not lie to ourselves. Bosnian Blue and Blusan Alamb 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beigl 1,387 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 No, just no.I wish this would be true, because it would mean that Torres stint at Chelsea was only half as bad, but unfortunately it isn't.

Special 59 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Morata is our weakness. He can’t control and pass the ball well. The way he plays reminds me of Oscar. We sure need another striker. He will never be good enough for us. Exactly like Oscar. Blusan Alamb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have compared him with Torres, that was a bit harsh - maybe he's like Torres from 2013 when he scored 20 goals. Same insecurity, same lack of composure. From our current squad, I would say he is on level with Fabregas. Hazard, Kante and Azpi, with Courtois somewhat behind them, are still our best players. After them, Fabregas and Morata. And last tier would be our most average players - Alonso, Cahill, Luiz, Moses, Drinkwater. Christy and Rudy, don't know where to put them yet. And Bakayoko is of course behind all.
