'Hazard and Willian don’t trust Morata' – Gullit

The former Chelsea boss feels the Spain international isn't completely to blame for his struggles in front of goal at Stamford Bridge

Eden Hazard and Willian don’t trust Chelsea teammate Alvaro Morata, according to former Blues manager Ruud Gullit.

Morata has struggled to replicate his best form in a blue shirt since joining from Real Madrid for £58 million ($76m) in July 2017.

The Spain international scored 11 Premier League goals in his first season in England, with Morata later admitting he spent much of the campaign struggling with a back injury.

But Morata has failed to hit the back of the net consistently this season as well, scoring just two goals in eight Premier League apperances as well as the winner against Vidi in the Europa League earlier this month.
