The Blues' big-money striker was left out completely as his side won against the champions, but his manager has reassured him of his future
Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri says that Alvaro Morata understands why he was left out of the squad entirely for Saturday's 2-0 win over Manchester City, and that the Blues striker does have a future at the club.
Eden Hazard started up front as Sarri looked to use his pace on the counter-attack, leaving out both Morata and Olivier Giroud from the starting line-up for the first time since joining the club.
