Liverpool 1-2 Chelsea: 5 talking points

#4 Morata failed to impress, yet again

Liverpool v Chelsea - Carabao Cup Third Round

Alvaro Morata’s struggle at the Stamford Bridge shows no sign of easing down at the moment. After a below-par debut campaign under Antonio Conte, Morata was under great pressure to perform for his new manager. He would have hoped for a better start, but so far, he failed to impress under Sarri. Before today’s game, the Spaniard has made seven appearances in all competitions for Chelsea this campaign and scored only once.

Leading the line once again on Wednesday night, the 25-year-old struggled to make an impact. It was yet another bad day in the field for the Spaniard. He had a good chance to score in the 18th minute but failed to beat Mignolet. After a frustrating night, he received a yellow card late in the game for time wasting.
