Antonio Conte Reportedly 'Angered' by Lack of Striker Options at Chelsea

Chelsea manager Antonio Conte is said to have been left "angered" by his lack of centre-forward options following the injury to Alvaro Morata.

The Spain international hobbled out of the contest against Manchester City on Saturday as the Blues went on to lose 1-0. It's left Chelsea with Michy Batshuayi as their only natural option in the position.

According to Matt Hughes of The Times, the injury to Morata has riled the Blues boss, who wanted to add another forward to his squad in the summer transfer window.
