Thread dedicated to our own @Álvaro Morata D)! Some skills: Not too shabby on the love front either (Discuss his girlfriends hotness below): Guess where he started? At least he had the common sense to leave them and join us. But don't worry people, he was always a Madridista:
We snatched up Morata from Getafe I believe although he did start at Atleti, so we screwed all the local Madrid clubs to get him He was a personal choice of Michel when he was coaching Castilla
We should have loaned him out to Rayo and then take him back after a couple of weeks just to complete the treble.
One of my favorite prospects that came through the youth academy for a good while anyway, It's just a shame about the lack of playing time he is receiving.
Anyone saying Sarabia is finished is completely nuts. He still has so much potential, just needs a different environment.

OMG today my kid's bithday too, October 23 is a good day for birthin' babies Happy Birthday though Alvaro! I remember a few years ago you were mesmerized on the training ground by Ronaldo's muscles (such a sweet story) and now three years later you've managed to grow into that big head of yours as well as a being superb representative of this Club on the cusp of big things. Best wishes for continued success!
He's dating a girl called Maria now, not the girl you've posted. He should really be our #9 ahead of Benzema, but Casillas should be ahead of Diego too and neither seem to be happening so whatever.
I think he has more potential than Jese, but thats just me. That is of course not to say that Jese cant be an incredible player, because he has all the tools for that, its just that Ronaldo/Bale play in his position, so minutes that are essential for development will be hard to get. But its fantastic to see two such talents (three, if you count Carvajal) to come out of the youth ranks.
I love this boy but Jese is the greater talent, there is no disputing that talent oozes from his pores and he'll tell you that himself. Morata is a gem in his own way though in that what he lacks in natural talent he morethan makes up for it with his intangibles.
Morata has been great so far, you can count on him to work his socks off and put in a decent performance everytime he is on (we NEED someone like that). He needs to score more goals though, he isnt a Castilla player getting scrap minutes at the end of games he is a first teamer and needs to be judged as such. At the same time I think its time Ancelotti puts more faith in him too, start him more regularly and in the CF position. Ronaldo prefers to play on the left and Morata up front, so why have both play out of position?
