Alvaro Morata says his confidence has been boosted by his two recent goals for Chelsea.

The Spanish striker has struggled since his move from Real Madrid and endured a torrid time in front of goal before scoring in his last two appearances.[phone]

He netted the winner against MOL Vidi in the Europa League and then scored after coming on as a substitute in Chelsea’s 3-0 win at Southampton prior to the international break.

Morata has admitted being less than happy with how things have gone for him in England – but says those goals and his recent performance for Spain against Wales have lifted his morale.

“I am very happy to be here and now I have to fight to play,” Morata told El Mundo, as reported by the Evening Standard.

“I have more confidence. Last week I made two goals for Chelsea and the other day, against Wales, I worked for the team.

“I am a happy person, especially off the field, outside of football.

“Within football I would like to be happier and for that I have to score more goals, which is what makes me happy.

“But I am sure that little by little they will enter, because I am having occasions.”
