After getting off to a flyer, Morata’s form diminished and his contributions dwindled to a trickle. However, the Spaniard is hoping for better days under new coach Maurizio Sarri. Though he was deployed against Huddersfield, a game Chelsea won 3-0, he failed to provide any significant impact on the game.
Though there is a lot of concern regarding Chelsea’s frontline, the midfield looks solid and ready for fresh challenges. It was midfielders N’Golo Kante and Jorginho who scored Chelsea’s first two goals of the season while Pedro finished off the third.
Chelsea have also added Mateo Kovacic to their midfield and he could prove to be a real something in the weeks to come. And his former teammate at Real Madrid, Alvaro Morata is optimistic about linking up with the Croat.
Morata told the club’s official website,
The duo had earned great praise during their time together at the Bernabeu where they lifted the Champions League trophy together.
On being asked about how Kovacic can help Chelsea, Morata said,
The 25-year-old also believes that Kovacic can help him improve at Chelsea.
Chelsea will hope that Kovacic’s addition will help Morata get his goalscoring form back. Their history together suggests that it will.
