First of all, Morata's style of play is not BULLY.

Secondly, he may not score but assist and/or make an overall impact for the success of the team.

Finally, calm down till season end not just Burnley match.

Ntori olorun....! So we paid 75mil not to expect goals and assist from morufat but improvement in our general play....

Bruv you just change is nickname from first touch to general play Thank you.

I shouldn't be in that list bro. I dey learn for where dem airmark,griffon,ibime,nihilist,funlord,raumdeuter and co. dey. These guys have professorship in archaeology.

u are dey oh, bcus u na still bad shotta

You are really confident in morata providing loads of assist bro. If he can do that with 15goals in the epl. I will be totally ok with him if not wahala go dey o!

Don't get me wrong. I'm not categorically telling you that Morata will provide us tons and tons of goals/assists. Football is a funny game. There is an atom of possibility that even Neymar will flop in PSG. #Fact. Anything is possible in football. I mean ANYTHING.

What I am absolutely against is the attack on Morata. Dude have not even played a full match for us! Why will his case be different? Because of 70m? Haba....Make una give the guy some slack abeg.

Fact is that Morata can succeed in Chelsea. He can also flop. In either case, it's not the first time in football.

You want to judge him till after this season, but I'm willing to judge him after 2 or even 3 seasons. We are talking about a 24 year old player who, bar injury or other unforseen circumstances, have up to 15 years ahead in his football career. Can you say Morata has reached his peak?

We should be more concerned on this his supporting cast first.

I was going to like your post before I read your second to last paragraph.

I am even magnanimous enough to give him a year to prove himself. When you spend 75mil on a player he should deliver without excuses. If the batshuayis of this world get bashed for free, rashford and martial get their share of bashing, depay was flung away after a season or so, I can't see why morata will need 2 or 3yrs to adjust or fit.

One season! One! He fails....I will be dragging him along with everyone who called for us to buy him. I no go wait for 2nd or 3rd season o! One!!!!

FedEx and UPS have announced that they'll be pruning their services in Nigeria. With the govt pushing for local content and citizens offering cheaper services at lower rates the Nigeria/UK market is no longer lucrative.

Your opinion, one season. My opinion, 2 or 3 seasons.

Can you force your opinion down my throat?

Oya be ready with ekelebe. Go arrest Morata if him perform below your expectation after one season. Make sure say you throw am inside kirikiri or kuje o.

Who in his right mind will even bash Rashford?!

Emaprince:
Morata is the MAIN MAN. All of you shall eat your words.

I'm with you on this

I think rashford got bashed last season or so,i am not sure, was only trying to drive home my point. And my point is, players who are/were valued lesser have been bashed severally and shown their way out when they didn't perform. If these players can be treated in such manner why should moratas case be different?

Anyways, you have rightly pointed how we defer based on the number of seasons we are willing to give morata to perform and I have no problem with it.

No matter what we say now it will not impact on the player directly or change what will happen at the end of the season. So no need to get headaches.

Skeptics everywhere... Just because of a cameo role.

I need to watch this guy perform for 90mins or for a few consecutive games before dishing out any criticism. Suarez in his first few games didnt fire immediately. If i remember correctly, it took him upto 3games before he started firing.

Give Morata a break.

At Liverpool or Barca?

It took Suarez around 18 months to start firing at Liverpoool...then again, Suarez didn't cost Liverpool 75m

So 2 seasons is not enough 'run' as a striker to score more than 14 goals in all competitions?

In those 2 seasons did he get the run Torres got? How is this different from those who said Lukaku had 2 stints in Chelsea to prove himself when he got piece meal minutes

Dayo this a simple yes or no question.

Are 2 seasons, 50+ games and 2300 minutes not enough to score more than 14 goals in all competitions as a striker?

Yes or No?

I will only agree with you, if morata will not receive his full weekly payments, for the seasons he will put the team in limbo.

Putting it this way makes it better with this ratio it shows Demba Ba has been one of the best Chelsea striker in goals per minutes played

Demba Ba 2309minutes 14 goals 165mins per goal
Didier Drogba 27042mins 164goals 165mins per goal
Diego Costa 9795mins 58 goals 169mins per goal
Fernando Torres 10996 mins 45 goals 244mins per goal

Shows Demba Ba was at par with the best Chelsea strikers of the past decade and Torres was the main outlier

If your intention is to prove Demba Ba failed then we can also say Drogba and Costa also failed as strikers for Chelsea

Any further questions

At barca.

After his big money move, he played upto 7 league games before netting for uefalona. Though he had a number of assists.

While i am not expecting Morata to delay before firing, i wont curse him if he doesnt.... But pays back with assists and improvement in team play which will see us amass enough points.

Whether na Morata score or cahill score... As far as he has a good game which propells us to victory, why should I complain?

Emaprince......we are not skeptical bcuz of a 90mins game. We are skeptical bcuz of his history of not scoring enough goals however, I am willing to be open minded like you just for a season.

You can ask airmark if he is willing to wait till the end of the season like me to pass his judgement.

But I didn't ask you who the best striker was

I am yet to get my answer...

14 goals in 2300 mins is actually a very good return for any striker and its at par with the best strikers in Chelsea recent history

One goal every 164 mins in a league of 38 games will get you about 20 league goals a season not a bad return

2300 minutes in all competitions is not the same thing as 2300 minutes in the league so press pause right there.

And you still haven't answered the question

2300mins of football for Chelsea and 14 goal returns that is at par with the best Chelsea strikers of the decade.

That ratio of 14goals per 2300mins taken into 38 league games is 20 league goals per season

And what is your question? 14 goals in 2300mins is a very good return

And Fernando Torres actually has a better goal + assist return than Demba Ba. I didn't check but it might even be on par or better than Diego Costa's

Anybody can twists stats how they want. That's why I did not ask you for stats.

The simple question is this:

Is 2 seasons enough for a striker to score up to 15 goals in all competitions?

Is the question to hard? Or should I switch to Yoruba?

Willing ko, willy caballero ni. If conte wasn't willing to start him in that local government match, do you think true fans will be waiting till we finish outside of first 4 before we start asking for the misfiring striker, to be benched?

Competition is rife, any sleeping on the bicycle, you crash and others overtake. Conte will not want that, zidane didnt. United had to get a striker that can score goals to relieve them of last season's nightmare of drawing games.

If as a 70m striker you dont hit the ground running, you hit the bench sleeping.

Asking if 2 seasons isnt enough doesnt tell the story when the said striker played 2300mins the equivalent of 25 games in that same time, Starting strikers are playing 90 games.

Demba Ba actually did not play 2 seasons, He joined in January 2013 and left June 2014.

So stop the fake news

14 goals in 2300mins is a very good return

Prove that Torres had a better goals+ assist returns per minute played. WOuld you?
