Alvaro Morata confident of Chelsea success: I need to make an explosion in my career

The £70m summer signing from Real Madrid scored as a substitute in the 3-2 defeat to Burnley last weekend. But he claims that was just the first of many as he backs his new club to challenge for silverware on four fronts.

Morata said: "I need to make an explosion in my career and I am at the perfect place, the perfect club to do that.

"I have all the things I need and if I can work hard, I can make good things happen. I have very big motivation. "I always think like a winner and I want to win everything it is possible to win.

"Last season the team won the Premier League and now we can try to win it again, and maybe the Champions League." Morata won the Champions League twice with Real and scored in the 2015 final on loan for Juventus.

But he swapped life on the bench in Madrid for a chance to be the top dog at Stamford Bridge and should start at Tottenham this Sunday.

And the 24-year-old claims he is in the perfect place to make his dreams come true with Antonio Conte and co. Morata said: "It is the perfect situation.

I decided to play in the Premier League and I want to play in Antonio's team. "Now I need to work hard, score goals and play well for the team.

There are very good players here and I think we can do something amazing.

"It is hard to leave Madrid but it is not so hard when you come to a club like Chelsea, with these players and with this coach." Chelsea's chances of signing Joao Cancelo look over with the Valencia right back poised to join Inter Milan in a swap deal with Geoffrey Kondogbia.

But if Cancelo goes through it could pave the way for £22m-rated Antonio Candreva to move to Stamford Bridge.

It's difficult to get info I need from accounting - what can I do? - Duration: 3:01.

Every month we need specific information from accounting

and it's like pulling teeth to get it--

and every month we're making the same request!!!

Grrrr!?

I can see how frustrating this situation would be –

it's making work, not accomplishing it.

Our question today comes to us from Gail who lives in Florida.

Hi, I'm Amanda Mitchell, Corporate Navigator at Our Corporate Life, and I help people thrive

in the workplace.

This situation seems to fit with Einstein's definition of insanity: "Doing the same

thing over and over again and expecting different results."

Clearly something is not working well between you and your accounting group.

It's incumbent upon you to determine what that "something" is and address it.

Choose a time when you don't need anything from accounting and ask to meet with them

in a neutral environment.

Take the onus on yourself and approach the conversation seeking to understand what the

issue really is.

Try to clear your mind of judgment.

The premise behind this conversation needs to be, "Help me understand what I'm not

doing or providing that is causing us to have such difficulty every month."

Then really listen to the answer—and probe to make sure you get what the problem is…

understand what's getting in the way.

It might be that there are other deliverables that outrank yours that are due at the same

time each month.

Or it may be that the person responsible for your deliverables changes month-to-month.

Or it might have nothing at all to do with your project and instead be a misunderstanding

in terms of priority.

Regardless, it's your responsibility to figure out how to get work done efficiently

and effectively.

So you want to take the time to understand and rectify the situation.

Tolerating difficult or inefficient processes is a major drain of energy.

Take action to control what you can.

That's my advice.
