Thought he started really poorly but improved and played a big part in our opener and got 2 goals. Should have got a penalty and scored at least one more too.
Guess now people won't hold the 'cant score even 10 goals in Serie A' argument against him. Though if you go by minutes, it's only his 2nd most efficient Serie A season (goal every 180smthing minutes). His 1st is still the best (goal every 160) and his 15-16 was his worst (goal every 200). It might be different if you add assists. Every year he has those few months where he's underperforming. If he was consistent, he'd be a top player
Rumours he's leaving? Heaven forbid. We need him. We need him more than Ronaldo by a country mile. We always play better when he's up front. He makes the midfield play the ball. We look a way more purposeful football side with him leading the line. We have an unimaginative, static group of mids, so all the more credit to him for doing what he does for them.
TBF he was lucky this game, didnt play so good, his first goal was all on Dybala, second on e he did good, but lets be fair - Skorupski should have saved it. But it was good anyway to see him score a brace, likeable guy, hopefully he stays.
Swap with Bernaguti and both clubs win. Berna is in high regards in Madrid as he played great in that game when we knocked them out of CL, and Morata is a surplus to their squad..

Agree, good idea. Don't use the option to extend the loan for 10M, so we can do a plusvalenza swap. Moratas book value is probably in the 20M range after this summer and Bernas is even less. Both teams can profit

Only retards dislike this guy. He’s never going to be a consistent world class striker that carries or leads the attack, but he’s always been a very productive striker for us and is a great piece of a top level attack partnered with the right wingers/secondary strikers.
I’d been pretty annoyed with his attitude the last couple months, yet once again this guy came through in the clutch and his goals got us back into champions league. Saved this club tens of millions. On his 5 mil wages. Lol. I said he needed to show something before the end of the season again, and this was it. Immense.
