With Alvaro Morato out with a hamstring injury, it seems Chelsea boss Antonio Conte will have to make other arrangements in attack.
Following rumours that Morata could miss seeing action for over a month, Conte is no doubt going to have to plan without his summer signing for a few games.
If Morata does in fact miss a month of action, he could miss the games against Palace, Watford, Everton and Bournemouth, as well as two Champions League games against Roma.

So let’s take a look at how Chelsea could line up without Morata.
The three options Conte should use for Chelsea in Alvaro Morata’s absence:
- Michy Batshuayi
One obvious choice would be to use Batshuayi.
Batshuayi proved last season that he can score goals when given a run in the team.
He would certainly not let the Blues down if he started the games in October.
