Andriy Shevchenko sends message to Chelsea FC star Alvaro Morata
Andriy Shevchenko opens up about Alvaro Morata's start to life since signing for Chelsea FC from Real Madrid
Andriy Shevchenko has called on Alvaro Morata to step his game up at Chelsea FC after his recent dip in form for the west London club.
The Spanish striker has been getting used to life at Stamford Bridge since signing for the Blues from Real Madrid in the summer transfer window last year.
The 25-year-old initially made a strong start to life in west London as he quickly got to 10 goals in the Premier League, but he has been hampered by a back injury in recent weeks and his performances have suggested a lack of confidence in front of goal.
And former Chelsea FC striker Shevchenko feels that the Spain international needs to work on improving his game with the west London side between now and the end of the season.
Shevchenko is quoted as saying by iNews: “I’ve seen a lot of him. He’s had a lot of chances.
“I think you need to improve the finishing when you have these chances.
“It’s a good sign [for the team] when a striker has chances like this, it’s very positive. You need them for scoring goals and helping the team to win.”
Morata will be hoping to start for Chelsea FC when the Blues return to Premier League action on Saturday evening with a home clash against Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues are currently in fifth place in the Premier League table as they bid to try and break back into the top four before the season is out.
