3. Alvaro Morata – Chelsea

The Spaniard was heavily involved in the seesaw transfer saga with Manchester United. He was originally meant to be joining Jose Mourinho, however after the reds acquired Romelu Lukaku, who was Chelsea’s transfer target, Antonio Conte decided to go with his old friend.

In my opinion, the blues got the better deal in this instance. Having signed Morata once already, Conte obviously knew there was talent in him. As the Italian so often is, he was right, and Alvaro Morata is now running riot in the Premier League.

He knows how to use his physical stature, as he likes to battle often with opposing defenders and they’re quite often aerial duels. Due to his high-flying start, he takes the third spot in the best strikers in the Premier League.
