Chelsea bought Alvaro Morata to replace Diego Costa but he's looked like a kitten compared to the Brazilian beast… and he is approaching 100 days since last Premier League goal

Fail to score against Tottenham on Sunday and Chelsea’s £70million striker Alvaro Morata will be guaranteed to pass 100 days since he last scored a Premier League goal.

His last was against Brighton on Boxing Day – a header after a peach of a ball from Cesar Azpilicueta put the goal on a plate for him at Stamford Bridge.

More is required. The man who was bought to fill the boots of Diego Costa has looked toothless by comparison – a kitten compared to the beast that was the brooding Brazilian.
