Injured Morata upsets Chelsea fans with Instagram video

Alarm bells have been ringing at Stamford Bridge since the Premier League champions suffered back-to-back league defeats to Bournemouth and Watford.

However, their misery appeared to be further compounded when head coach Antonio Conte confirmed in his pre-match conference that the club doctors are still unable to accurately assess Morata's back problem as a return date was still not be set for the striker.

That has been called into question though as a video was posted on the Spaniard's wife's Instagram account on Sunday evening which showed the couple dancing. Morata went on to gather his partner into his arms as his back looked untroubled.

The video has understandably not gone down well with Chelsea fans who are now confused as to why the striker is still not available for selection, with the team set to face West Brom in the Premier League on Monday.

Putting the league fixture to one side, the 'Blues' also face Barcelona in the first-leg of the Champions League Round of 16 on 20th February in which every single player will be needed to stage a famous victory over the Catalan giants.

If Morata is not fit, Conte will have to rely on January signing Olivier Giroud who is yet to prove himself at the club.
