No Morata scored some very important goals this season.

Scored first goal in 2-1 win against Celta
Scored winner in the 83rd min against Bilbao
Scored goal against Alaves when it was 2-1 to make it 3-1
Scored first goal in 3-2 win agaisnt Deportivo
Scored first goal in 2-0 win against Espanyol
Scored winner against Villarreal in 83rd min (3-2)
Scored 3 goals against Leganes in 4-2 win
Scored equalizer against Sporting Gijon (3-2)
Scored first goal against Deportivo in 6-2 win

That's 11 out of 15 goals were very important.

His "adding to the tallies" were 4 goals.
3rd goal vs Sociedad in 3-0 win
3rd goal vs Leganes in 3-0 win
3rd and 4th goal vs Granada in 4-0 win

In Champion league:
Scored winner against Sporting Lisbon in 95th min (2-1)
Scored 3rd goal vs Napoli to make it 3-1 (it wasn't as important as Madrid were leading in aggregate goals)

11 of his goals in the league were as starters, so he isn't exactly "super sub"
you are letting the facts get in the way of a good story !
 
Oh? Is he going to be backup to Rashford?
It's not as clear cut as you make it. Is Rashford going to be he's sub? My guess is both starting regularly in 4-2-3-1, with Rashford on the leftwing, making Martial a bench player.
 
So? Would you be happier if he was the first choice striker for Everton or Torino?
No because I don't think he's that good and I can't see him being a success here. If Mourinho rates though then fair enough.
 
If this deal isn't done by the end of next week I'll somewhat get worried.
Players were joining team during tour many times. What Mou wants is one thing but he's not dealing in transfers, directly.

In short: he'll wait if that'll mean getting substantially better players than Salah or Kolasinac.
 
He's our big money Muppet signing this summer and the muppets aren't thrilled. He'll be great here if the rest of our attack step up. No single player was going to come in and magically make us amazing again. Good age and rounded skill set, technically far superior to any other striker we've been linked with, our manager wants him and rates him very highly (and he has only signed players that have improved us so far) we aren't selling DDG as part of the deal etc. He's also going to be the Spainish NTs main striker for thr next few years and he clearly wants to come play here. Brilliant signing overall. Excited to watch how he does in the coming seasons!
 
To be fair his stats for last season are very impressive.

It's just that he isn't a 'big name' that the muppets aren't all over this. They will be the same people who wanked over us signing a washed up Schweinsteiger because he was a 'big name'.

Would be a good signing.
 
I'm in the minority with BFS , I thought he looked really good on the ball and composed, if a little unfit, until the arsenal game where we got destroyed with him a midfield 2. He got injured then and that was that. Lvg was a total idiot in the transfer market. Right player perhaps but the wrong time and the wrong contract.

Back to morata, bring it on. Will be one of the best signings we've made in a long time
 
Seen talk on twitter he was doing an Instagram live-stream and his mates started mentioning United so he turned it off.

I am unable to find it so i cannot confirm. Did anyone on here see it?

M.E.N mentioned it as well and that it was very short and sweet because Manchester was all that was mentioned.
 
A picture has emerged of the jet on the runway.

How is that jet doing a wheelie? :lol:

Plus Morata has a HUGH f#cking head. It's like Sputnik.
 
Maybe Madrid are stalling so that we get him after the super cup.
I think they are stalling because they are cnuts. Who gives a shit about the Super Cup? Surely it's not fair to let this drag on until then both for the club paying the premium (us) and the player.. Oh, how naive of me, I said fair in a sentence relating to Real Madrid.

Yeah - because he's the nailed-on match-winning starter for them? Or because adding him would mean we beat them for sure in the most important competition in European football? ;)
Naah... they're just being their normal cnutish selves and holding out for big money for a player they don't need to play, but equally don't need to sell and would be happy enough to retain...but know that we need and will ultimately pay more for than we're currently offering... Standard negotiations when one party has a far better hand than the other.

LIke they are entitled to! They are simply looking out for their interests and its not like they are forcing us to buy from them either, if we do not agree with their terms then we should simply move on from the deal and onto the next target like they seem to have done with De Gea.
 
Is there a PL player that wouldn't be a squad player at Real? They're one of the best teams in history IMO.
Except De Gea, I don't think anyone in the entire league will be guaranteed a starting spot at Real.
 
This thread is so full of overhyping of Real Madrid's squad.

Surely players like DDG, Courtois, Diego Costa, Sanchez, Hazard, Kante, Valencia, Harry Kane, Vertonghen, Walker could somehow sneak into their starting lineup. At the same time their starting players like Assensio/Carvajal, Isco, Keylor Navas, Benzema, Pepe, Varane would struggle to find a starting berth at Spurs. So what?

Apart from the fact that nearly all of those wouldn't? This is a side who won the CL two seasons running. There's genuine quality flowing throughout.
 
I just thought, he's going to be playing against us on the US tour! Could give us a little insight into his ability against PL defenders!

I'd rather he was playing for us and see how he is against CL defenders. Also if he is good, not sure it would give me much confidence in our defenders.
