I always had a soft spot for Morata, because his struggles are very relatable to me. Suffering under pressure, caring too much what people think of him, focusing on negativity - yes, all of this makes him a worse player than he could’ve been. But such is human nature. He’s flawed. And I love that he still managed to have a great career and captained his country to the euros.
Morata has an amazing career. In this day and age people will make you believe if you're not the VERY best striker then you're trash. He always had a decent scoring record, won many trophies, is loved by teammates and is great off the ball. He's a decent striker, not world class, not trash. Decent.
He’s always been a winger in his Youth but converted striker in professional career. Scoring wasn’t his biggest atribución. It’s been his speed, aggressive play and skills. People really don’t understand you don’t have to score 50 goals a season to be considered great. He’s borderline such a team player. More about the team than him. That captain armband is the reasons he’s captain for Spain. 🇪🇸 he’s truly a team player.
@@Chadius_Thundercock quite the contrary. Fans tend to blame him when their team underperforms. I think Lukaku gets the same treatment, though Lukaku sometimes makes high profile errors.. which Morata also did at Chelsea
Yes, and as a DECENT striker, you can't have a career playing for clubs like Real, Juve, Atletico and Chelsea. But the fact that he has, is also infuriating to many people as if he stole a living.
As an Atletico fan I will never hate him. His bad moments were many but he never gave up and always gave everything he had for the shirt. I will never forgive or forget what the press and some fans for how they treated him. Morata will always have a spot in my team.
@@scottishfilmhistorian Morata is not "World Class". That term gets thrown around way to much. Haaland is not a realistic comparison either. Morata is okay.
Never the prodigal son, the chosen one, the striker a golden Spanish generation deserves. But he has been there during very ugly years for the national team, he is high in the scoring rank to back it up and has been an integral part to get the job done this Euro. While a striker with the technical quality of Kane could be in theory the perfect fit to assist players like Nico or any of our often great wingers. I'd take his workrate for our high press alone every single day of the week ahead of the current "best european strikers". He won't be remembered like Villa, but he will be remembered non the less. He has earned his spot. PS: The amount of revenue he has generated with transfers is still utter nonsense.
"Kane" and "technical quality" in the same sentence, mate, you made my day... You sound so logical otherwise, that none can imagine that a cringe-moment nears, and albeit involuntarily, that´s great comedy... ;) ;-) ;-)
@@klausbrinck2137 Always amazes me how fickle memory of certain fans are. Kane has played a shity Euro. However to deny he has been and maybe still is one of the most complete CFs of his generation is insane otherwise. Not only that, is not an opinion. You literally have to be blind to don't see his creative stats when paired with Son back in Spurs. Dropping deeper and becoming a solid playmaker aswell as goalscorer. Arguably a player like that with the workrate of Morata would be as already said the perfect match for both 2008's generation and the current Spanish roster.
Because he has elite level positioning but he is not a good finisher. It’s why managers at top clubs keep signing him, they think they will be the one to unlock him. It’s not going to happen.
He isn’t elite positioning either he is constantly offsides. CR7 is elite positioning. Even when he lost his speed you couldn’t match his IQ. Morata is slightly above average and has a good agent nothing more
@@al_er_4208 2nd best? 🙄. My point was that Morata swore he deserved to be a starter at madrid and there again was snuffed when Juventus brought in CR7. Simeone taught him how use his hatred to power the dark side
I heard someone put it the best way possible. He is like a 7/10 striker or on his day 8/10 striker but these top clubs bought him expecting to be a 10/10 striker. Not his fault, just did the best he could
I dont know why but ive always liked him, never played for my club but he is just such a real person compared to others. He speaks his mind and on his day is great to watch
I remember hyping Morata back in 2016 and was happy to try and sign him at Manchester United before we signed Lukaku and Morata joined Chelsea. My thoughts on Morata changed after he's disastrous move for Chelsea and was admittedly part of the crap on Morata bandwagon before I've realized about his all round game at Atletico Madrid. He'll never be like David Villa but his industry is pretty good. Last season he had his best season ever with Atletico Madrid but went off the boil in the second half of La Liga. Played a role in winning Euro 2024 and still gets hate from the football world. Yes his goal scoring record is average but no means he's a bad striker. Morata has won a lot of silverware and played for a lot of big clubs, I have to appreciate him for achieving a lot in football despite all the hate he gets.
Every club he goes to, he says it is the club of his dreams since he was a child. All of them! That is why people dislike him. Not hate him. And mainly because he misses sooo many good goal chances. He is under average.
juventus vs bayer munich, champions league 15/16... Th assist for Cuadrado by Morata is something out of this world! I think juventus supporter still love him
As a Chelsea fan, I've always loved him. From Madrid to juve to Chelsea to atlmadrid... I can not rate him more... he's been very very mistreated and underrated.. I blame the messironaldo era... applause for the complete striker.
As a Real Madrid fan, I have split opinions about Morata. First of all, we would not have won the double under Zidane if it wasn't for his clutch-ness during the first half of that season. I don't think he gets enough credit for how decisive he was during that time. He was about as decisive as Ramos throughout that season, but Ramos is remembered for scoring in finals, while Morata perhaps suffered from the eventual return of Gareth Bale + Cristiano hitting form after the turn of the year. A lot of football fans have recency bias, and don't seem to care much for the players who put in the effort to get the team somewhere during the earlier parts of a season. They care about the business end to a much, much greater extent. And then he became a journeyman. He wanted game time and he wanted to become a starter, which is a completely fair demand for a player who was young and on the rise. But in an odd twist of fate, his comments to the media seemed to express that he was falling out of love with the game. At some point, he seemed to lose some of his ambition and drive for football, and that doesn't quite make sense considering all of the moves he's made since leaving Real Madrid. Ultimately, I think he's fallen quite short of where he was projected to be in his 30s. And I'm sure there are a lot of reasons for that, but I do believe he had the talent to get far once. My speculation is that he was never quite up for it mentally. 70 or 80% focus and effort is never going to get you into the upper echelons of the sport.
It seems he has elite -level fitness to get himself in good positions but is an average goal converter (for the chances he gets). Appears his finishing inconsistency and *CRAZY offside record* just frustrates too much. Plus his style of biting - back verbally encourages haters.
Over the years my interest in football has waned and I’m more into the nostalgia of the 90s and early 00s, but your videos have been the catalyst to get me to enjoy the game again.
If morata had a decent shot he'd be one of the best number 9s in the world right now. I truly believe that. His touch, vision, passing, positioning, are all elite level, he's quite physically imposing, has a decent turn of pace, and he plays well both on and off the ball, but when he gets in front of goal, if the ball bobbles even slightly, if there's solid physical contact that may throw him off, if there's a slight deflection on a pass coming to him, he struggles to put the ball on target, with power, in a position that it could pass the keeper. Even while wide open on goal he seems to have too much hesitancy, as if any chance missed will result in his life crumbling around him, which, as it turns out, often causes him to miss in those situations, or to pass off to a teammate in a worse position than him to score. In fact, that a player with nearly 300 contributions in nearly 600 career matches in 3 of the top 4 european leagues is seen as just a soild journeyman is a testament to how much better of a player he really could be. Unfortunate but the fact that he is nearly 32 seems to suggest that he has reached his peak already. :(
He's the Spanish Emile Heskey, but with far more pressure and expectation upon him. In England Heskey was treated as a meme and necessity due to Lampard's and Gerrard's lack of ability to produce high quality passes. Morata deserves far more respect because the guy on his day is a top player. Unfortunately, he's not consistent enough.
I've always seen him as an average striker. But the more i look at him the more i see a version of zlatan in him. He's tall, physicall and technical. Im curious to see how he'll do for us at milan, i have faith in him.
People are fickle. In an era of Messi and CR7 pushing to break goal records every season for 10-15 years... People seem to expect the same from every new top prospect - which Morata once was! It also doesn't help that the media big up new talents too much, only to slate them for every minor thing later. Morata is simply a different type of forward. He's more of a team player than out and out goalscorer.
Because in Messi and Ronaldo prime era there was so many world class players so was kind of left alone early on whilst now footballers just aren't as good but are better athlete's now
@dondamon4669 , it's not as simple as that. Players today are, on average, better than previous generations. Not just better athletes but better players, especially the defenders. The attacking players are mostly better too... problem is that individual brilliance and creativity is being coached out of them, they're over coached.
I've been one of those who criticized Morata a lot. This video brings another perspective, for which I'm grateful! As a long time Milanista - I really hope he finds his home at San Siro and proves all his critics (myself included) wrong!
the people in spain dont like him because he had an all-powerful father who made it possible for him to have endless opportunities and play on the best teams despite being terrible.
Morata is an outstanding striker that unfortunally never was able to reach his prime and was savaged by the fans and media. Maybe at Milan, he will be able to reach that prime, if Giroud could, why not him?
Giroud didn't have his prime in Milan, bro 😂 Giroud was a made man, france record goal.scorer and other funny things like world cup winner before even joining Milan. In Milan he was one thing: Better than he was at Chelsea. But Chelsea might be his worst stint overall, not his best.
@@LiftandCoa No, but in Milan he DID became the main striker of the team and did recovered that old spark he lost when he moved to Chelsea (Everything that goes to Chelsea turns into shit for some reason), and I dare to say, those three seasons at Milan where the ones that he had the best consistency in performance, besides the 2015-2016 where he scored 25 goals with Arsenal.
@@carlosmedrano6868 How would you feel if people tells you to eat shit and pray that you die alongside your family and kids for missing a couple of goals? No wonder why he has such massive disdain if his own countrymen talks shit about him 24/7.
@@LiftandCoaAs a Chelsea fan he was a great player. Underrated and hard working and scored crucial goals like the one against Arsenal and Atletico Madrid
I liked Morata when he was in Real Madrid the second time. He was doing good as his play style favors a lot him coming from the bench. I’ll explain. Morata has two strong aptitudes. First it’s his height and he is useful those last minutes when you need to put a lot of people in the box to try score with the head, and he scored many with Madrid like that. The second one, as the video said, is his movement and his placement. He is really good when he doesn’t have the ball, dragging defenders away from the ball and moving them out of position. And that is mostly effective in the las 20-25 min of the game, when it starts to become crazy and the organization of the team starts to break. Summarizing, I think Morata is one of the best players any team can have in the bench to revolutionize the match and make a difference in those last minutes of the games. But he failed to see that and wanted more minutes and being in the starting eleven, which unfortunately didn’t work well for him.
I think a lot of Juventus fans still love him low key a minor club legend not like marchisio that's higher tier but barzagli level probably Unless this recent move to Milan piss off too many of us I personally don't mind even with bonucci or Conte I didn't care Loyalty died a long time ago in modern football and it's never coming back after Totti retired except halaand obviously playing for his father's club he is like Maldini lol
He has a similar issue that Mario Gomez had back in his days. He performed well, outstandingly well in some seasons, but his finishing was swingy and the tendency to miss easy goals in crucial moments led to a bad reputation that neither could shake off entirely, even if it wasn't warranted looking at their stats.
Fact is that he is a striker who played for the top teams in 3 strongest leagues in the world but never managed to score more than 15 goals per season. When you compare to world class strikers that score 30+ per league season he is simply not nearly good enough. And then people ask themselves how did below average striker manage to lead the line for so many top clubs over objectively better players. Got to give props to his manager though.
Not a morata fan but just had to respect the way he helped track back, defend and do the dirty work when he was the main striker. Yes, that was probably part of their game plan but we know there r those who wouldve said "fuck off" to that. There r attackers who im a fan of, who also happen to be the captains of their teams and they can barely be bothered to even move into their own half. So yeah, respect to the dude for sacrificing and doing what was best for the team.
Morata is one of my favourite players. A lot of people will laugh because they do what everyone else tells them to do, and don't have a mind of their own. I love Morata because he really has been a crucial player for Spain, but I also loved watching him at Atletico, and was wishing to see him at Barça, but we got Auba instead. Which was great. Morata is a very balanced striker. Whatever instructions you give him he will be able to follow. He can drift wide on the wing, he can drop deep, he can score crucial goals. The big problem with him is his inconsistency in finishing, and he seems to be very human, a good guy. Who needs an arm around his shoulder and needs to feel appreciated. I think it's an endeering quality, but it is a reason behind his constant moving around and lack of form at certain clubs.
As a German the initial quote is quite interesting, because Toni Kroos alludes to the same thing about Germany and som occasions and is full of praise for Spain. Maybe this is a phenomenon, that transcends boundaries, that some players just aren’t rated in their home country. This effect might bring Kimmich to Barca 😉
1:27 explaination as atleti fan Morata had an amazing season before January. However he almost did not score at all from february to the end of the season, only scoring in gameweek 36. A breaking point for us was when he missed a crucial goal, 1 to 1 with the goalkeeper, that would've basically put us in the UCL semi's (and finals potentially too bc psg wasn't that good) Our fans felt we needed to do a club revolution and we were saying it had to start with morata
As a Spanish I always loved Morata even tho he had moments were I could’ve easily critisized I didn’t because what he does off the ball is so important and under the rug
We love him , the only issue he had back in the day was the Real Madrid / athletico switch , but when rakitic played for sevilla and switched to Barca , fans were more lenient to players making switches to and from Barca. Griezmen is another example
"Significantly less people would clown him if he just let his performance do the talking". Yeah, right. Then the curious cases of CR7 and Saka hate and disrespect wouldn't exist. But they do. Because of the media.
I wouldn’t say he led Spain, the only reason he is a captain is cause he is the most capped player in the team. I would say Rodri, and Carvajal are the leaders in that locker room.
As an Atletico fan, I am happy that he left. His first half of this season was great, but the second half was awful especially in the UCL. I think HITC sevens described him in the best way, a player who is almost world class, who had everything that a great striker should have but lack of confidence and mentality has ruined him. he would have certain burst is form, where you will think now his moment of shine has arrived, then he would disappear like there is just a body on the field.
As an Atleti fan I've always liked him. He's an instinctual and reactive striker, when he has too much time he misses but when he has to react quickly he scores. I wonder if psychology could help him out. Stop thinking about the problem and think of the solution.
As an Spaniard, I think Spain deserve much more respect gor winning the Euro as we won it without a top striker. Most of the matches Morata was like playing with 10
Sorry, I love Morata. I have witnessed his radical transformation in the last few seasons, completed this season-he now plays one-touch 90% of the times. He didn’t before. This makes a huge difference for Atleti and Spain. Besides, he is a pain in the neck for any defense. Do not underestimate his contribution both attacking and defending as a TEAM PLAYER. He only has one defect-he joined Atleti and confessed that he had always been an Atleti fan, since his grandpa took him as a child to the Vicente Calderón Stadium and later played in Atlet’s children and youth teams. Real Madrid supporters cannot forgive him for that, and the vast majority of Spanish journalists are Real Madrid fans. They feel deceived. They thought of him as one if their own after he joined Real Madrid youth team and later the professional team. It still hurts. They don’t pass him any error. They are brutally unforgiving and extremely unfair. Therefore his bad press.
It's just his personality. Every time he speaks, he says something controversial and let's be honest, frequently, stupid. So, add that with his constant disregard of his former clubs when he joins a new one and you have a great cocktail for trolling. Not to mention his screwups on the pitch.
I think part of the problem is that most football 'fans', particularly on the Internet, have never been to a football match in their lives, and watching football on TV you only see the ball but you don't get to see what's going on off the ball.
If you waited till the Euros to find out that Morata is better than the whole german team (comparable only to Wirtz), then you´ve been watching a different sport all your life before the Euros... ;-) ;-) ;-)
@@klausbrinck2137Morata is not only better than the whole German team, He is also better than the Referee Anthony Taylor, especially when he plays handball 😂😂😂😂😂
He gives off Lukaku vibes: getting overpaid to move clubs, arguiing with fans and blaming others, and not turning up at important moments. He was one of the weakest players in the spain team
Well at Juventus he's well remembered, he had to go away because Real used the recompra clause but he always said he would like to have stayed (his wife is italian too)
I feel bad, I've done my fair share of complaining about morata, probably mostly about how often he falls into offside traps, but my opinion has certainly changed once I started to learn about his work off the ball and stuff, and also how much shit he gets, just felt sad to give one of my fave team's players so much grief when he works so hard.
He is still very popular among Juve fans I think. Every time he played, he did his Job, especially if he was a second striker. Was he ever world class? No. Was he ever bad? Hell no. At Athletico, Real and Juve he was Great and we all know, that chelsea are a really bad place for no. 9s. I wish him Luck at Milan, except against Juve. Hopefully he just doesn't play against us.
I think a major problem for Morata is that he was neither an important figure for a major success (not the main man for Real or Juve) nor did he have a crazy season with 40+ goals if he had won a UCL title with Juve and a championship with Atletico he would be far more recognized
No doubt that some fans are very annoying or overstep the line with death threats, insults, racism etc. but he really seems like the usual very whiny and spoilt multi-millionaire, the fact that there are videos and articles out there just dedicated to Morata's personal problems shows how privileged he is.
He plays for clubs that are on S Tier level, and he himself is B Tier. When a high tier club makes 5 decent chances a game, people expect the striker to make at least 1 goal probably 2 goals in 5 decent chances. People hate morata because he plays for this clubs but he need 10 decent chances to score one goal.
His tenure at Chelsea was glaring. He literally could not score 1v1 vs the keeper, ever. He was excellent in build up but he should have never been a striker IMO. He would have made a much better no. 10 or second striker.
He's a player with great responsibility who sometimes underperforms... But being hated? Nobody hates him. Having said that I understand hos perception could be he's much hated, but I think it's all about psychology at this point.
16:07 Yup that's also one of his bad habits. He has a bad mouth and always leaves on bad term and destroys the little things he made at one club sooner or later. He was also inconsistent and had a bad mentality. Always focus on the negative and the outer media too. Morata have had a nice career so far, but could have been much more if he concentrated on the game, run his mouth less, and focus less on the outer media. As a Madrid fan, I will always despise the guy, his outside comments and ungratefulness are something I cant tolerate Anyway great video like always.
Never hated him. Always was a great player. You dont just captain spain to a title if you are shit. He is absolutely loved by the whole spanish team, its evident from the way they talk about him. People always have something to say. Respect to the man. Wish him best in Milan.
He demands play time to show how good he is and when that play time is given to him, he shows he is not good enough. And he blames the media and the fans for not wanting him in a team. That goalkeeper that never plays in Manchester City has won a lot of trophies by just being part of the team. Morata has a lot of trophies in teams where he wasn't important, so I don't know if that makes him better than other players. He still blames de media and the fans for that. Every team he signs for turns magically in the team he always dreamed to sign for since he was a child, it doesn't matter which team it is, Real Madrid, Juventus, Chelsea or Atletico Madrid, it is always his dream. He sees himself as a victim no matter what he does. In this Euros Spain was supporting him A LOT. I didn't see anything negative towards Morata, and he still blames the media and the fans for not wanting him in the team for some reason. He doesn't respect fans, I don't know why he expects fans to respect him. I don't hate him, but I really dislike how he behaves. Players should be good examples of behaviour like Henry, Beckham, Zidane, Totti, Ballack, Kroos, or Bellingham and many others in my opinion.
if you were listening at all when you watched the video, you would realize that it was the pressure that got to him, making him insecure and messing with his head, all of that caused by what? the media
@@srph_z if you had followed his carreer from the begining you would know better the Morata story than just watching this video. I know what I'm talking about. He had this victim attitude since he was in the younger categories of Real Madrid. And instead of working in how the exterior affects him, he always complained about the team environment, the fans and the media (and his father, like you just watched, worked inside the media) or he just reject the exterior and makes his own version of the situation. If since the begining of his path everyone is wrong, he goes to england and everyone is wrong, he goes to Italy and after a good start he decays and THEN everyone is wrong, he comes back to Spain and after a couple of good season starts he ends up saying everyone is wrong... I only see ONE thing in common in his carreer. Have you ever saw anything about Lukaku? Is he ever complaining about the media and the fans?? If Morata had another attitude he would have enjoyed football.
hes a good player tbh, if you look at his career stats over the last 10 years he has averaged a G/A every 2 games basically, trust me there are many many strikers who do worse than that, thats without saying anything about his massive trophy cabinet
His misfortune was to play with and be compared to players at the top of their game. As shown with Spain he also needs a coach that play to his strengths
I’m a Milan fan who haven’t watch much of him outside his time in Juve (😷), I’m glad he joined for the fee we got him at, however I do not know what he is amazing at, he seems like he is good at being a leader which we need, however his time in juve taints my image of him, hope to be proven wrong
Morata is essentially Raul without the technique. Tbh, if his poaching and close control were more developed, he'd be a different monster, and STILL he made something of himself. I feel genuinely sorry for Morata.
Since 2010, the guy was the protegee of spanish press because of who his father is (a very importante directive in spanish radio). He's not bad, but he's extremely overrated by pundits and journalists. Also, he saying in very team he goes that is "the team of his dreams" doesn't help.
If he’s cursed then I’d like someone to hex me. He’s just won the Euro’s and signed a new deal with Milan. He wouldn’t have played at the Euro’s in this great Spain team if del la Fuente didn’t think he could do a job for him. He’s an intelligent forward and target man who can hold the ball up well and bring others into play. He’s basically a one in three games a goal striker which isn’t bad, but his all round game and intelligence to do whatever is asked of him is why he’s liked by team mates and coaches.
I'm not convinced this guy isn't some sort of running inside joke between big clubs. A bit like Dan from the Street Fighter series, if anyone knows (?), the big clubs pass him between them to see who can win DESPITE using him in the team: We won the league! Yeah? Well... We won 2/20 games playing Morata on top...
this guy costed Chelsea a lot in a lot of occasions except Fa Cup . i saw his friendlies at chelsea and declared that he is a misfit which he later proved my words
Morata is a quality player, but he gets underrated and underappriciated because, he isn`t the most prolific goalscorer. i think Morata gets the Giroud treatment, he likely is a great of the game, but he doesn`t get treated like it, due to not being the most flashy nor prolific player, but Morata has a very good all around game, he can score, he can playmake, he understands the right places to be. Spain would not have won the euros without Morata, Morata`s movement created so much space for Williams and Yamal.
If he doesn't like his country. He could just move and work in any country in the European economic zone. There are no barriers that keep him from leaving
The biggest "issue" i havce with him is that even with all that amazing resumee, he is always, ALWAYS offside, i mean, c'mon man, it's not that hard to stay behind the defensers line...

100%. Not a number 9 but not a number 10. However, the countless times I saw him score crucial goals for club and country was amazing.

Never the prodigal son, the chosen one, the striker a golden Spanish generation deserves. But he has been there during very ugly years for the national team, he is high in the scoring rank to back it up and has been an integral part to get the job done this Euro.
While a striker with the technical quality of Kane could be in theory the perfect fit to assist players like Nico or any of our often great wingers. I'd take his workrate for our high press alone every single day of the week ahead of the current "best european strikers". He won't be remembered like Villa, but he will be remembered non the less. He has earned his spot.
PS: The amount of revenue he has generated with transfers is still utter nonsense.

Because he has elite level positioning but he is not a good finisher. It’s why managers at top clubs keep signing him, they think they will be the one to unlock him. It’s not going to happen.
He isn’t elite positioning either he is constantly offsides. CR7 is elite positioning. Even when he lost his speed you couldn’t match his IQ.
Morata is slightly above average and has a good agent nothing more
He had quite a good season. The best in terms of goals
@@Honorbound43cr7 is the 2nd best player of all time lmao, of course morata is not gonna be as good as him
@@al_er_4208 2nd best? 🙄. My point was that Morata swore he deserved to be a starter at madrid and there again was snuffed when Juventus brought in CR7.
Simeone taught him how use his hatred to power the dark side
@@al_er_4208 insecure Messi stan whining detected
He’s a striker who doesn’t score … at the end of the day, ppl want strikers who can finish not just open channels for other people to score
do you want a striker who rarely score but can win trophy,or a striker always break all scoring record but never can win a trophy?
I heard someone put it the best way possible. He is like a 7/10 striker or on his day 8/10 striker but these top clubs bought him expecting to be a 10/10 striker. Not his fault, just did the best he could
I dont know why but ive always liked him, never played for my club but he is just such a real person compared to others. He speaks his mind and on his day is great to watch
I remember hyping Morata back in 2016 and was happy to try and sign him at Manchester United before we signed Lukaku and Morata joined Chelsea. My thoughts on Morata changed after he's disastrous move for Chelsea and was admittedly part of the crap on Morata bandwagon before I've realized about his all round game at Atletico Madrid. He'll never be like David Villa but his industry is pretty good. Last season he had his best season ever with Atletico Madrid but went off the boil in the second half of La Liga. Played a role in winning Euro 2024 and still gets hate from the football world. Yes his goal scoring record is average but no means he's a bad striker. Morata has won a lot of silverware and played for a lot of big clubs, I have to appreciate him for achieving a lot in football despite all the hate he gets.
In the second half of the season, Simeone kept on subbing on Angel Correa at half time
Every club he goes to, he says it is the club of his dreams since he was a child. All of them! That is why people dislike him. Not hate him. And mainly because he misses sooo many good goal chances. He is under average.
In other words. He is a professional victim
juventus vs bayer munich, champions league 15/16... Th assist for Cuadrado by Morata is something out of this world! I think juventus supporter still love him
As a Chelsea fan, I've always loved him. From Madrid to juve to Chelsea to atlmadrid... I can not rate him more... he's been very very mistreated and underrated.. I blame the messironaldo era... applause for the complete striker.
As a Real Madrid fan, I have split opinions about Morata. First of all, we would not have won the double under Zidane if it wasn't for his clutch-ness during the first half of that season. I don't think he gets enough credit for how decisive he was during that time. He was about as decisive as Ramos throughout that season, but Ramos is remembered for scoring in finals, while Morata perhaps suffered from the eventual return of Gareth Bale + Cristiano hitting form after the turn of the year. A lot of football fans have recency bias, and don't seem to care much for the players who put in the effort to get the team somewhere during the earlier parts of a season. They care about the business end to a much, much greater extent.
And then he became a journeyman. He wanted game time and he wanted to become a starter, which is a completely fair demand for a player who was young and on the rise. But in an odd twist of fate, his comments to the media seemed to express that he was falling out of love with the game. At some point, he seemed to lose some of his ambition and drive for football, and that doesn't quite make sense considering all of the moves he's made since leaving Real Madrid.
Ultimately, I think he's fallen quite short of where he was projected to be in his 30s. And I'm sure there are a lot of reasons for that, but I do believe he had the talent to get far once. My speculation is that he was never quite up for it mentally. 70 or 80% focus and effort is never going to get you into the upper echelons of the sport.
We Juventus fans love him. A hard worker and one who sacrifices himself for the team.
It seems he has elite -level fitness to get himself in good positions but is an average goal converter (for the chances he gets). Appears his finishing inconsistency and *CRAZY offside record* just frustrates too much. Plus his style of biting - back verbally encourages haters.
Over the years my interest in football has waned and I’m more into the nostalgia of the 90s and early 00s, but your videos have been the catalyst to get me to enjoy the game again.
If morata had a decent shot he'd be one of the best number 9s in the world right now. I truly believe that. His touch, vision, passing, positioning, are all elite level, he's quite physically imposing, has a decent turn of pace, and he plays well both on and off the ball, but when he gets in front of goal, if the ball bobbles even slightly, if there's solid physical contact that may throw him off, if there's a slight deflection on a pass coming to him, he struggles to put the ball on target, with power, in a position that it could pass the keeper. Even while wide open on goal he seems to have too much hesitancy, as if any chance missed will result in his life crumbling around him, which, as it turns out, often causes him to miss in those situations, or to pass off to a teammate in a worse position than him to score. In fact, that a player with nearly 300 contributions in nearly 600 career matches in 3 of the top 4 european leagues is seen as just a soild journeyman is a testament to how much better of a player he really could be. Unfortunate but the fact that he is nearly 32 seems to suggest that he has reached his peak already. :(
Para milo destacable de el , es su trabajo en el campo, corre presiona , lucha , después si tiene acierto o no es secundario , es el primer defensor
That’s just life, Harry Kane is a much better player than him but yet has no team trophies. This guy has every title that Harry Kane can only dream of
True
Well seems like Morata isnt a bottle merchant. Like the english in general.

I,ll always remember that run from morata against bayern in 2016
He's the Spanish Emile Heskey, but with far more pressure and expectation upon him. In England Heskey was treated as a meme and necessity due to Lampard's and Gerrard's lack of ability to produce high quality passes. Morata deserves far more respect because the guy on his day is a top player. Unfortunately, he's not consistent enough.
His agent is up there with Choupo-Moting’s in getting him big transfers
I've always seen him as an average striker. But the more i look at him the more i see a version of zlatan in him. He's tall, physicall and technical. Im curious to see how he'll do for us at milan, i have faith in him.
10:20 "The two biggest clubs in the world" tried sneaking United into that sentence lmfao
People are fickle. In an era of Messi and CR7 pushing to break goal records every season for 10-15 years... People seem to expect the same from every new top prospect - which Morata once was! It also doesn't help that the media big up new talents too much, only to slate them for every minor thing later.
Morata is simply a different type of forward. He's more of a team player than out and out goalscorer.
absoloutely on the point, he makes the team work , holds the ball well and sets others up
Because in Messi and Ronaldo prime era there was so many world class players so was kind of left alone early on whilst now footballers just aren't as good but are better athlete's now
@dondamon4669 , it's not as simple as that. Players today are, on average, better than previous generations. Not just better athletes but better players, especially the defenders. The attacking players are mostly better too... problem is that individual brilliance and creativity is being coached out of them, they're over coached.
Team player results to team captain. 👍
@@javierlandaverde4108 can do with enough positive leadership traits
I've been one of those who criticized Morata a lot. This video brings another perspective, for which I'm grateful! As a long time Milanista - I really hope he finds his home at San Siro and proves all his critics (myself included) wrong!
Alvaro will thrive at Milan , he's not the best but he's a man of class. Football fans misunderstood players and Morata is one of them
Something in me also tells that he will really fill the Giroud shaped hole in Milan's squad.
Kenyan(E.Africa) subscriber here.
the people in spain dont like him because he had an all-powerful father who made it possible for him to have endless opportunities and play on the best teams despite being terrible.
as a spain fan i LOVE morata
I was so happy seeing lift the cup last week..he deserves peace n happiness
Morata is an outstanding striker that unfortunally never was able to reach his prime and was savaged by the fans and media.
Maybe at Milan, he will be able to reach that prime, if Giroud could, why not him?
Media 😂😂😂😂😂 bro You Even knows about his family has conection with the media, this guy was the little princess of spanish media.
Giroud didn't have his prime in Milan, bro 😂
Giroud was a made man, france record goal.scorer and other funny things like world cup winner before even joining Milan.
In Milan he was one thing: Better than he was at Chelsea.
But Chelsea might be his worst stint overall, not his best.
@@LiftandCoa No, but in Milan he DID became the main striker of the team and did recovered that old spark he lost when he moved to Chelsea (Everything that goes to Chelsea turns into shit for some reason), and I dare to say, those three seasons at Milan where the ones that he had the best consistency in performance, besides the 2015-2016 where he scored 25 goals with Arsenal.
@@carlosmedrano6868 How would you feel if people tells you to eat shit and pray that you die alongside your family and kids for missing a couple of goals? No wonder why he has such massive disdain if his own countrymen talks shit about him 24/7.
@@LiftandCoaAs a Chelsea fan he was a great player. Underrated and hard working and scored crucial goals like the one against Arsenal and Atletico Madrid
Great piece of insigna into Morata’s past, hope the move to Milan is what he needs to develop further.
I liked Morata when he was in Real Madrid the second time.
He was doing good as his play style favors a lot him coming from the bench. I’ll explain.
Morata has two strong aptitudes.
First it’s his height and he is useful those last minutes when you need to put a lot of people in the box to try score with the head, and he scored many with Madrid like that.
The second one, as the video said, is his movement and his placement. He is really good when he doesn’t have the ball, dragging defenders away from the ball and moving them out of position. And that is mostly effective in the las 20-25 min of the game, when it starts to become crazy and the organization of the team starts to break.
Summarizing, I think Morata is one of the best players any team can have in the bench to revolutionize the match and make a difference in those last minutes of the games. But he failed to see that and wanted more minutes and being in the starting eleven, which unfortunately didn’t work well for him.
His problem is not with his feet, it's his excessive empathy
I think a lot of Juventus fans still love him low key a minor club legend not like marchisio that's higher tier but barzagli level probably
Unless this recent move to Milan piss off too many of us
I personally don't mind even with bonucci or Conte I didn't care
Loyalty died a long time ago in modern football and it's never coming back after Totti retired except halaand obviously playing for his father's club he is like Maldini lol
He has a similar issue that Mario Gomez had back in his days. He performed well, outstandingly well in some seasons, but his finishing was swingy and the tendency to miss easy goals in crucial moments led to a bad reputation that neither could shake off entirely, even if it wasn't warranted looking at their stats.
Fact is that he is a striker who played for the top teams in 3 strongest leagues in the world but never managed to score more than 15 goals per season.
When you compare to world class strikers that score 30+ per league season he is simply not nearly good enough. And then people ask themselves how did below average striker manage to lead the line for so many top clubs over objectively better players. Got to give props to his manager though.
Not a morata fan but just had to respect the way he helped track back, defend and do the dirty work when he was the main striker. Yes, that was probably part of their game plan but we know there r those who wouldve said "fuck off" to that.
There r attackers who im a fan of, who also happen to be the captains of their teams and they can barely be bothered to even move into their own half.
So yeah, respect to the dude for sacrificing and doing what was best for the team.
damn good explanations, I thought of this video as a second screen but this is one of your best ones yet
Morata is one of my favourite players. A lot of people will laugh because they do what everyone else tells them to do, and don't have a mind of their own. I love Morata because he really has been a crucial player for Spain, but I also loved watching him at Atletico, and was wishing to see him at Barça, but we got Auba instead. Which was great.
Morata is a very balanced striker. Whatever instructions you give him he will be able to follow. He can drift wide on the wing, he can drop deep, he can score crucial goals. The big problem with him is his inconsistency in finishing, and he seems to be very human, a good guy. Who needs an arm around his shoulder and needs to feel appreciated. I think it's an endeering quality, but it is a reason behind his constant moving around and lack of form at certain clubs.
Best comment.
Excited for the new vid!
As a German the initial quote is quite interesting, because Toni Kroos alludes to the same thing about Germany and som occasions and is full of praise for Spain.
Maybe this is a phenomenon, that transcends boundaries, that some players just aren’t rated in their home country.
This effect might bring Kimmich to Barca 😉
1:27 explaination as atleti fan
Morata had an amazing season before January. However he almost did not score at all from february to the end of the season, only scoring in gameweek 36. A breaking point for us was when he missed a crucial goal, 1 to 1 with the goalkeeper, that would've basically put us in the UCL semi's (and finals potentially too bc psg wasn't that good) Our fans felt we needed to do a club revolution and we were saying it had to start with morata
Man I love this channel, I truly do. But 6 ads per video is insane.
Start paying for TH-cam and off you go
TH-cam premium broke boi
As a Spanish I always loved Morata even tho he had moments were I could’ve easily critisized I didn’t because what he does off the ball is so important and under the rug
Real Madrid fan And feel like morata was always underratted
He was over hated but not underrated let's stop with that term it's overused
We love him , the only issue he had back in the day was the Real Madrid / athletico switch , but when rakitic played for sevilla and switched to Barca , fans were more lenient to players making switches to and from Barca. Griezmen is another example
Juventus supporters love Morata , it is here in Turin Alvaro Morata “became great”
"Significantly less people would clown him if he just let his performance do the talking".
Yeah, right. Then the curious cases of CR7 and Saka hate and disrespect wouldn't exist. But they do. Because of the media.
I wouldn’t say he led Spain, the only reason he is a captain is cause he is the most capped player in the team. I would say Rodri, and Carvajal are the leaders in that locker room.
As an Atletico fan, I am happy that he left. His first half of this season was great, but the second half was awful especially in the UCL.
I think HITC sevens described him in the best way, a player who is almost world class, who had everything that a great striker should have but lack of confidence and mentality has ruined him. he would have certain burst is form, where you will think now his moment of shine has arrived, then he would disappear like there is just a body on the field.
As an Atleti fan I've always liked him. He's an instinctual and reactive striker, when he has too much time he misses but when he has to react quickly he scores. I wonder if psychology could help him out. Stop thinking about the problem and think of the solution.
As an Spaniard, I think Spain deserve much more respect gor winning the Euro as we won it without a top striker. Most of the matches Morata was like playing with 10
Sorry, I love Morata. I have witnessed his radical transformation in the last few seasons, completed this season-he now plays one-touch 90% of the times. He didn’t before. This makes a huge difference for Atleti and Spain. Besides, he is a pain in the neck for any defense. Do not underestimate his contribution both attacking and defending as a TEAM PLAYER. He only has one defect-he joined Atleti and confessed that he had always been an Atleti fan, since his grandpa took him as a child to the Vicente Calderón Stadium and later played in Atlet’s children and youth teams. Real Madrid supporters cannot forgive him for that, and the vast majority of Spanish journalists are Real Madrid fans. They feel deceived. They thought of him as one if their own after he joined Real Madrid youth team and later the professional team. It still hurts. They don’t pass him any error. They are brutally unforgiving and extremely unfair. Therefore his bad press.
It's just his personality. Every time he speaks, he says something controversial and let's be honest, frequently, stupid. So, add that with his constant disregard of his former clubs when he joins a new one and you have a great cocktail for trolling.
Not to mention his screwups on the pitch.
I think part of the problem is that most football 'fans', particularly on the Internet, have never been to a football match in their lives, and watching football on TV you only see the ball but you don't get to see what's going on off the ball.
as a German, he didn't exactly gain sympathy over here during the euros
If you waited till the Euros to find out that Morata is better than the whole german team (comparable only to Wirtz), then you´ve been watching a different sport all your life before the Euros... ;-) ;-) ;-)

Real Madrid will always love you Alvaro! You were part of some incredible teams and played your role incredibly well. GRACIAS!!!!
He gives off Lukaku vibes: getting overpaid to move clubs, arguiing with fans and blaming others, and not turning up at important moments. He was one of the weakest players in the spain team
And u r the one of the weakest fan in football history 👏 👍
Time is a flat circle, nice true detective reference
Well at Juventus he's well remembered, he had to go away because Real used the recompra clause but he always said he would like to have stayed (his wife is italian too)
I feel bad, I've done my fair share of complaining about morata, probably mostly about how often he falls into offside traps, but my opinion has certainly changed once I started to learn about his work off the ball and stuff, and also how much shit he gets, just felt sad to give one of my fave team's players so much grief when he works so hard.
He's one of these players that you wonder how on earth he got to play at the highest level.
He is still very popular among Juve fans I think. Every time he played, he did his Job, especially if he was a second striker. Was he ever world class?
No. Was he ever bad? Hell no. At Athletico, Real and Juve he was Great and we all know, that chelsea are a really bad place for no. 9s. I wish him Luck at Milan, except against Juve. Hopefully he just doesn't play against us.
I think a major problem for Morata is that he was neither an important figure for a major success (not the main man for Real or Juve) nor did he have a crazy season with 40+ goals
if he had won a UCL title with Juve and a championship with Atletico he would be far more recognized
No doubt that some fans are very annoying or overstep the line with death threats, insults, racism etc. but he really seems like the usual very whiny and spoilt multi-millionaire, the fact that there are videos and articles out there just dedicated to Morata's personal problems shows how privileged he is.
He plays for clubs that are on S Tier level, and he himself is B Tier. When a high tier club makes 5 decent chances a game, people expect the striker to make at least 1 goal probably 2 goals in 5 decent chances. People hate morata because he plays for this clubs but he need 10 decent chances to score one goal.
His tenure at Chelsea was glaring. He literally could not score 1v1 vs the keeper, ever. He was excellent in build up but he should have never been a striker IMO. He would have made a much better no. 10 or second striker.
He's a player with great responsibility who sometimes underperforms... But being hated? Nobody hates him.
Having said that I understand hos perception could be he's much hated, but I think it's all about psychology at this point.
16:07 Yup that's also one of his bad habits. He has a bad mouth and always leaves on bad term and destroys the little things he made at one club sooner or later. He was also inconsistent and had a bad mentality. Always focus on the negative and the outer media too. Morata have had a nice career so far, but could have been much more if he concentrated on the game, run his mouth less, and focus less on the outer media. As a Madrid fan, I will always despise the guy, his outside comments and ungratefulness are something I cant tolerate
Anyway great video like always.
I remember when he is inform earlier in the season, I told my friends this is the “Alvaro Morata Redemption arc”
As a spaniard, i want to you make a video about julio salinas, another player loved by no one, without reason.
Never hated him. Always was a great player. You dont just captain spain to a title if you are shit. He is absolutely loved by the whole spanish team, its evident from the way they talk about him. People always have something to say. Respect to the man. Wish him best in Milan.
He demands play time to show how good he is and when that play time is given to him, he shows he is not good enough. And he blames the media and the fans for not wanting him in a team. That goalkeeper that never plays in Manchester City has won a lot of trophies by just being part of the team. Morata has a lot of trophies in teams where he wasn't important, so I don't know if that makes him better than other players. He still blames de media and the fans for that. Every team he signs for turns magically in the team he always dreamed to sign for since he was a child, it doesn't matter which team it is, Real Madrid, Juventus, Chelsea or Atletico Madrid, it is always his dream. He sees himself as a victim no matter what he does. In this Euros Spain was supporting him A LOT. I didn't see anything negative towards Morata, and he still blames the media and the fans for not wanting him in the team for some reason. He doesn't respect fans, I don't know why he expects fans to respect him. I don't hate him, but I really dislike how he behaves. Players should be good examples of behaviour like Henry, Beckham, Zidane, Totti, Ballack, Kroos, or Bellingham and many others in my opinion.
Chelsea fan here too. Perfect assessment
good example for behaviour "bellingham" 😂😂😂😂😂😂
if you were listening at all when you watched the video, you would realize that it was the pressure that got to him, making him insecure and messing with his head, all of that caused by what? the media
Agreed.
@@srph_z if you had followed his carreer from the begining you would know better the Morata story than just watching this video. I know what I'm talking about. He had this victim attitude since he was in the younger categories of Real Madrid. And instead of working in how the exterior affects him, he always complained about the team environment, the fans and the media (and his father, like you just watched, worked inside the media) or he just reject the exterior and makes his own version of the situation. If since the begining of his path everyone is wrong, he goes to england and everyone is wrong, he goes to Italy and after a good start he decays and THEN everyone is wrong, he comes back to Spain and after a couple of good season starts he ends up saying everyone is wrong... I only see ONE thing in common in his carreer. Have you ever saw anything about Lukaku? Is he ever complaining about the media and the fans?? If Morata had another attitude he would have enjoyed football.
Never seen a good game from this guy in my life
hes a good player tbh, if you look at his career stats over the last 10 years he has averaged a G/A every 2 games basically, trust me there are many many strikers who do worse than that, thats without saying anything about his massive trophy cabinet
as a juve fan we love him
His misfortune was to play with and be compared to players at the top of their game. As shown with Spain he also needs a coach that play to his strengths
Just a tip, cadena COPE is pronounced as "coh-peh". In case you ever need to mention them again. Great video tho
I’m a Milan fan who haven’t watch much of him outside his time in Juve (😷), I’m glad he joined for the fee we got him at, however I do not know what he is amazing at, he seems like he is good at being a leader which we need, however his time in juve taints my image of him, hope to be proven wrong
Morata is essentially Raul without the technique. Tbh, if his poaching and close control were more developed, he'd be a different monster, and STILL he made something of himself. I feel genuinely sorry for Morata.
Since 2010, the guy was the protegee of spanish press because of who his father is (a very importante directive in spanish radio). He's not bad, but he's extremely overrated by pundits and journalists.
Also, he saying in very team he goes that is "the team of his dreams" doesn't help.
If he’s cursed then I’d like someone to hex me. He’s just won the Euro’s and signed a new deal with Milan. He wouldn’t have played at the Euro’s in this great Spain team if del la Fuente didn’t think he could do a job for him. He’s an intelligent forward and target man who can hold the ball up well and bring others into play. He’s basically a one in three games a goal striker which isn’t bad, but his all round game and intelligence to do whatever is asked of him is why he’s liked by team mates and coaches.
He had so much potential when he was in Real Madrid before he got injured

I'm not convinced this guy isn't some sort of running inside joke between big clubs. A bit like Dan from the Street Fighter series, if anyone knows (?), the big clubs pass him between them to see who can win DESPITE using him in the team: We won the league! Yeah? Well... We won 2/20 games playing Morata on top...
this guy costed Chelsea a lot in a lot of occasions except Fa Cup . i saw his friendlies at chelsea and declared that he is a misfit which he later proved my words
Morata is a quality player, but he gets underrated and underappriciated because, he isn`t the most prolific goalscorer.
i think Morata gets the Giroud treatment, he likely is a great of the game, but he doesn`t get treated like it, due to not being the most flashy nor prolific player, but Morata has a very good all around game, he can score, he can playmake, he understands the right places to be.
Spain would not have won the euros without Morata, Morata`s movement created so much space for Williams and Yamal.
I love Morata, he is very underrated but unlucky at the same tim.
If he doesn't like his country. He could just move and work in any country in the European economic zone. There are no barriers that keep him from leaving
Well I think he is alright
I think he’s a less extreme version of Darwin Núñez. Big, fast, hardworking but not a natural finisher
As a Milan fan, well I have kinda mix feelings right now...time will tell.
The biggest "issue" i havce with him is that even with all that amazing resumee, he is always, ALWAYS offside, i mean, c'mon man, it's not that hard to stay behind the defensers line...
