Paul Merson believes that the Blues must bring in another striker in the January transfer window
Morata has made a strong start to life in England and it looks as if it will not take him long to adapt to the rigours of the Premier League.
However, Merson feels that the Blues are in need of a new centre-forward if they are to be able to sustain a title challenge for the whole season.
Speaking on Sky Sports News on Saturday, Merson said: “I think come January they will have to get another centre-forward, they’ve taken a big chance here.
“It’s alright playing Eden Hazard up front on his own or not playing a centre-forward and at the moment it’s a good enough squad, at the moment and they’re back to their best.”
