En dey Schalke.
Unfortunately, he's scored only 2 league goals in 2 years.

Ibime:
We only have a few minutes here and there where Dave finished the game as RWB and trust me, the difference to Moses was clear. Cross after cross was hitting the strikers. You don't need to be a dribbler to play that position. You need to be sharp on the 1-2s with your teammates and Azpi has that and showed that in those minutes. Alonso showed on the other side that a player who does the 1-2s is far more effective than the dribbler.

Griffon:


Well, different strokes for different folks anyway.

I prefer those electric pace and wily trickery to crosses. Let's just say I love to be quite creative with my approach other than direct and Moses gives me that.

Only a certain Lionel Messi (76.5 minutes) scored a La Liga goal more frequently than Morata (88.7 minutes) last season, while only soon-to-be-former teammate Isco (31.3%) had a better conversion rate than the frontman (27.3%) of players to score 10 or more Spanish top-flight goals last term.

Yet there is more to Morata’s game than just goalscoring, even if this is an important facet for any striker. His selflessness in the final third creates chances for teammates as he drag defenders out of position by pulling to the flanks.

If you are going to pick out any aspect of a striker's performance that may be repeatable year-on-year then shots per 90 should be the metric you use," Ben Pugsley of the statistical analysis website StatsBomb explains. "A striker is more likely to reproduce his shot volume year-on-year than any other countable aspect of his performance."

As long ago as 2013/14, during Morata's previous spell at Madrid, he averaged more shots per 90 minutes from inside the penalty box than any other player in La Liga. Those numbers remained encouraging upon his return. Only Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi had more shots from inside the box per 90 minutes than Morata last season.

Any suggestion that he padded his stats by scoring meaningless goals in heavy wins should be dismissed too. Morata scored late winners against Athletic Bilbao and Villarreal as well as opening the scoring in narrow victories over Celta Vigo, Deportivo and Espanyol. His goals were important, directly earning 13 points. Even Ronaldo's only delivered an extra 14.

Having also scored in the Champions League final for Juventus and been his country's top scorer at European Under-19, Under-21 and senior championship level, it amounts to a proven track record of big-game goals. They will be needed. Costa's goals earned more points than any other Premier League player last season, despite Harry Kane hitting nine more overall

lordfalcao:
the dude na eh.... Schalke must be planning how to offload him..

After all, Lukaku's hold-up play is less than exemplary. Morata's tidier work with the ball at his feet may help to bring others into play. One famous assist at Bayern Munich last year even saw him run from his own half and beat three men before squaring the ball. Morata has six assists in his last 24 hours of football. Lukaku has half the assists in twice the time.

Of course, it is time that will tell whether Chelsea got the better deal. But for now the club can content themselves in the knowledge that a solution to their Costa conundrum has been found. Morata will be the man tasked with replacing the team's talisman. It is a gamble, for sure. But it is an educated one.

MrDickman:
80% of morata's goals are always rebound.

Salomon Kalou was far better than this guy

PietroRico:
Excuses Wey we dey give for welbz that year..

Ibime:


I believe it's good to play one dribbler and one team player at in the WB positions.

We actually have one of each. On the left side, Kenedy can be the dribbler.

So any game Azpi starts on the right, Kenedy can be drafted on the left, so you have both styles of attack for the opposition to worry about.

You can't handle the old Roc that was a tennager// I'll put your face on the front of Mac that's a screensaver// strap with a green laser// he thought he's safe at his mom's crib... I caught him slipping on a porch like a dream chaser// ~Tay Roc

Coz I don't want nobody else to witness// silencer . . . The way I stuck my nose in him like nobody's business!!// I'll start from the top of his head to his fuckin neck, then shoot his fuckin chest, his stomach next... Then hit Roc bottom... He got nothing left!! ~ Chess

I got the K on Roc like I'm spelling it the proper way. ~ Chess.

I catch you writing about my girl, in my eyes you're a dead man// it sound döpe but that shît you wrote in that book you gon' regret it fam// see, this is where Tay digs his own grave for tryna be the best man!! // ~ Chess

This last bar by Chess, I missed it the first time, But when it finally hit me, it had me like WTF?!! Such brilliance in one line. Damn.
