Positions the top 5 Premier League teams should strengthen in January 2019

#3 Chelsea (Striker)

Morata has not been brilliant

Life under Sarri is good at the Bridge. Unbeaten in all competitions, the Blues have surprised everybody with how quickly they have adapted to life under the new Italian manager.

Eden Hazard has been in fine form, Jorginho has slotted in seamlessly and Ross Barkley has been like a new signing.

However, the team's strikers have been the only major issue with the team so far. Alvaro Morata has been hit-and-miss once again. While he has scored 3 league goals so far, his general play, demeanour and finishing have been poor.

Olivier Giroud has continued his goalless streak. Despite his brilliant hold-up play, the French World Cup winner has continued to be wasteful and is yet to score this season.

A striker will be a priority in January as Michy Batshuayi isn't pulling up any tree either at Valencia. The likes of Polish hotshot Krystof Piatek (Genoa) have been mentioned as potential targets. If Chelsea is to continue its title challenge, strikers of his calibre will be needed.
