Pepsi vs Coke. Always... But yeah I would still Lukaku the bigger success at United. 27 goals a season is a mean feat not.
Romelu Lukaku vs Alvaro Morata 2017/18
- Thread starter Paxi
- Start date
Kebab vs muffin
Haha
DiMaria vs the robbers
Falcao's foot vs Falcao's brain
Wes Brown vs Wes Brown
Mourinho vs Everyone bar Matic
Well those stats are kind of accurate as it shows both have been shite, one margainly less so.
Hardly “margainly”. Those stats show a big gap between them.
I reckon throwing assists in the mix would make the gap even more evident. Has Morata got any assists?
As per transfermarkt: none this season, six last season, so very few for Chelsea. Looks notably different for his career as a whole though: 82g - 37a in all major competitions.
Hope he can find his feet again at Atletico, I like him.
Phil Jones vs team-mates in training.
No one wins this debate. At least Chelsea have cut their losses and will most likely only take a £10m hit on the Morata deal. We'd be lucky to get a little over half of what we've paid for Rom.
As @Pogue Mahone alluded to, once you throw Lukaku's 13 assists into the mix in comparison to Morata's 6 you get an even clearer picture of how comparatively shite he was for your lot but feel free to keep pretending otherwise.
This is really the crux of the debate. Both sides would have been much better off if they went for a cheaper alternative instead of these two, and bided their time until someone better become available. As it is stands now, Chelsea did the right thing. Whether we will cut our losses with Lukaku, who knows?
Both overrated it seems.
Don't see how this is the case. Plenty saw the shortcomings of Lukaku but acknowledged his very good goalscoring record. Those who rated Morata on the other hand based it off nothing but hopes and dreams (and that one run against Bayern Munich). Still now you have some talking about Morata being more 'technical' or having a 'higher ceiling', the guy has a wayward touch, can't hold up the ball, can't finish, can't link the play. He's the definition of average and the only thing he excels at is heading.
And yet hes managed to sign for the second best team in Spain and will play in the Champions League...what is it that Simone is not seeing that you are? or should that be the other way round..
Morata couldn’t deal with the physicality of the league. I dont think he is a bad player.
Best team in Italy and arguably best 3 in Europe wanted Darmian, means nothing.
Conte thought he saw whatever Simeon thinks he seeing to be fair.
Ultimately it doesn't really matter now.
We have rectified our error and got rid of him, you guys are yet to do the same although unfortunately I can see that changing this summer.
You mean the newspaper articles written every window that you take at facevalue but has never come to pass. Darmian is still at United. Morota left Chelsea to join the second best in Spain.
There's clearly a player in there otherwise Real Madrid, Juventus, Chelsea & Atletico wouldn't be on his resume
We aren't talking about some random papers, Juventus, Inter interest is reported by some of the most reliable journalists.
Of course there is a player somewhere, he was good for Juventus and since he joined Chelsea, he has been nothing but average to poor player.
Nothing but Twitter click bait, thats how the modern media works. Fact is theres been speculation after every window for the last 3 years, but he hasn't moved
Morienties was average as well for Liverpool. Don't put too much stake in English football as some kind of pinnacle.
Hopefully they'll end up facing off in the champions league final at the Wanda. Then we can decide once and for all which one is the greatest on earth 
.
.No, that's now how it works. Just because 2 clubs didn't agree on fee doesn't mean it was bs.
Not even sure what your second point is meant to be, looks like you are arguing some imaginary points.
Imaginary, says the person trying to apply speculation to something that actually has happened..
The point is everyone that writes off Morata is because he had a average spell in England yet still had a top club who wanted him

Speculation.Of course it's imaginary points. Saying I think PL is some pinnacle of football or some shit.
I said there is a player somewhere, so I for one didn't write him off. Saying that he has been nothing but average to shit for Chelsea. If Juventus sign Darmian, that doesn't mean Darmian wasn't average here.
