Liverpool Legend would love to play with this brilliant Chelsea striker

Premier League legend Steven Gerrard has conceded that he would love to have played with Chelsea forward Alvaro Morata.

The Blues brought in the Spaniard in a £58million deal from La Liga Champions Real Madrid last summer transfer window.

The Spain international forward squandered no time leaving his mark on the English Premier League after a noteworthy return of six goals in seven games.

The 24-year-old striker endured hamstring damage amid a 1-0 defeat to Premier League runaway leaders Manchester City.

Alvaro Morata has failed to score in the English Premier League since his hat-trick heroics in a 4-0 victory against Stoke at the Britannia back in September.

Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard had a brilliant partnership with Spain international striker Fernando Torres during his time at Liverpool.

The former Reds skipper conceded that he might want to have played alongside Alvaro Morata during his playing career.

The Chelsea forward would like to end his five-match goal drought when the Blues go up against rivals Manchester United at the Bridge on Sunday.

Chelsea brought in Morata to help replace Brazil-born Spaniard Diego Costa after the Spanish striker returned to La Liga side Atletico Madrid last month.

Chelsea have won the League title in two of the past three league seasons at Stamford Bridge.
