Romelu Lukaku took all the headlines from Sunday's clash between Manchester United and Chelsea as he scored and provided an assist for Jose Mourinho's victorious charges, yet the match also marked a run of 10 matches in which Alvaro Morata has failed to score.

With the two clubs having been involved in a transfer tug-of-war over both forwards in the summer, it was inevitable that the pair's first season at their new clubs would be closely compared.

The Spaniard has really struggled of late, with an injury costing him his place within Antonio Conte's team.

His cause wasn't aided by a suspension and Eden Hazard has been forced to play as a false nine as a result.

Sunday afternoon was another struggle for the former Real Madrid goalscorer, as he rattled a shot against the crossbar from close range after five minutes and then did little else until he found the net late on, only for the offside flag to be raised.

In the aforementioned 10-match spell, Morata has gone six league matches and four cup games without finding the back of the net.

This amounts to 575 minutes, his worst run since he arrived at Stamford Bridge in the summer.His last goal was a header against Brighton and Hove Albion on December 26.

It's no secret that the Spaniard is a confidence player and he has endured difficult moments in the past, most notably at Juventus in the 2015/16 season when he went a total of 20 matches without scoring.

Over the course of his debut season in England, the Spanish international has found it difficult to settle, but has still scored 12 goals in 35 matches across all competitions.
