Alvaro Morata has scored five Premier League goals this season
With Atletico Madrid in converses with sign Alvaro Morata, we take a gander at where it has turned out badly for the striker amid his year and a half at Chelsea.
In July 2017, Chelsea finished a then club-record £70m marking for Morata, who was acquired to supplant the active Diego Costa.
"We trust he can have an incredible effect for Chelsea. Alvaro has demonstrated class at the most abnormal amount and his quality will be a gigantic resource for the squad," included Chelsea's presently previous specialized chief Michael Emenalo.
Be that as it may, exactly year and a half, 24 objectives, and one FA Cup later, Morata is apparently setting out toward the leave entryway at Chelsea, and Sky Sports News comprehends he is notwithstanding eager to take a compensation slice to leave, while the club are looking for a lasting arrangement to offload the forward.

The grieved insights
Morata opened the 2017-18 Premier League battle with six objectives in six amusements, four of which were from Cesar Azpilicueta helps as the Spanish match seemed, by all accounts, to be framing a practically clairvoyant association.
Be that as it may, Morata scored only four additional objectives before the finish of 2017, and only once in the New Year before the season found some conclusion with Chelsea completing fifth.
Their campaign ended with FA Cup victory, and though Morata contributed valuably with goals in the quarters and semi-finals, he played just one minute of the final with Antonio Conte starting Eden Hazard and Olivier Giroud up front.
The summer heralded a managerial change at Chelsea, with Conte making way for Maurizio Sarri. The Italian initially persisted with Morata, but five goals in 16 league appearances - a goal every 188 minutes - has seen Hazard become the preferred attacking option.
This season, Morata is fifth in the standings having missed 10 big chances, and this disparity between opportunities converted and wasted has been to the player's detriment - particularly as the only player to miss more since the beginning of 2017-18 - Salah (35) - has scored 46 times to make amends.
Earlier this month, Zola acknowledged Morata cannot rely on ability and must improve tactically in order to succeed in the Premier League.
"Technically without doubt he is one of the best in this position," said Zola. "I think he has to improve a little bit tactically because nowadays with the type of football, football is so organised you need to get better tactically, your ability is not enough.
"In my opinion he needs to improve on this. He's been working on that, he has a good attitude. He feels that he doesn't score enough and he feels a lot of responsibilities for that."
Morata then scored twice in Chelsea's next game - their 2-0 FA Cup win over Nottingham Forest - and Marca noted the player's "joyless celebration" was aimed at Zola.
The Spanish newspaper added: "Not feeling respected, Morata wanted to respond with a gesture showing how he feels, particularly given his lack of backing from the club."
Lacking certainty
Certainty, obviously, has all the earmarks of being key for Morata, and this has clearly varied amid the player's time at Chelsea.
Following Morata's two-objective commitment in November's success over Crystal Palace, Sarri stated: "He enhances in certainty, in identity, in playing with the group, so now I am extremely upbeat.
"He can improve more because the technical potential and physical potential is great, now he has confidence he can improve more."
In Morata's own words: "Last year was very difficult for me for many things. Now I am good and the team is good and it is time to enjoy this," he told the club's website after the 3-1 win against Palace.
"We have a very good group and they help me to find the very best feeling on the pitch and in training and I just want to say thanks to all my team-mates and all the supporters."
But come December, Sarri compared Morata to a player he coached at Empoli, Riccardo Saponara, whom he described as "one of the best players I have ever seen, but a little bit mentally fragile".
Morata was subsequently left out of the squad for the defeat to Manchester City. "A tactical decision, not the final option," said Sarri, after implementing Hazard as a false-nine.
And as of January, Sarri has conceded Morata could leave the club: "If Morata goes to another club we need a replacement. At the moment Morata is here, so he has to think only about playing."
Nev and Carra's view…
Toward the beginning of the season, Sky Sports intellectual Neville communicated his worry over Morata's quality, focusing on Chelsea required a player of Diego Costa's bore so as to vie for the Premier League.
Neville stated: "To win the alliance they need to keep Eden Hazard and get a middle forward. Alvaro Morata is a decent player yet I consider the void left by Diego Costa. On the off chance that they will play a solitary striker, which they generally have, at that point they require another."
Carragher resounded these slants, taking note of what Morata looks like "completed" in the wake of missing the mark concerning Chelsea's prerequisites, with the group winning the class twice with Costa leading the assault, and multiple times amid Didier Drogba's first spell at the club.
"I think Drogba changed the observations about what a striker could do and the manner by which a group could be molded," Carragher said in his Telegraph section.
"It makes one wonder concerning what his most recent successor Alvaro Morata will be associated with at the club and, as things stand, I think that its difficult to trust he has a future there… actually I don't believe that Morata will ever click at Chelsea, and I am certain the club imagine that as well.
"All Chelsea's title-winning sides have had incredible strikers - Drogba or Diego Costa - and this group needs one urgently."

Why he struggled
For Morata, it has been as much about the chances missed as the ones he has taken. In 2017-18 he squandered 17 big chances, placing him fourth behind Mohamed Salah (23), Christian Benteke (20) and Harry Kane (18).This season, Morata is fifth in the standings having missed 10 big chances, and this disparity between opportunities converted and wasted has been to the player's detriment - particularly as the only player to miss more since the beginning of 2017-18 - Salah (35) - has scored 46 times to make amends.
