Morata who is married to Alice Campello said: "Well, I was not really feeling OK after I missed the penalty against Arsenal [in the Community Shield]. "I found the two days after that really difficult, my wife wanted me to get out of the house. "But, you need to remain strong at the end of the day. We are doing well and that is the most important thing.
"Everything is OK at the moment, it is very important to win the Champions League and now we have a vital game this weekend."
Morata has however enjoyed his time in London so far. He has scored six goals in his last five league starts, including a hat-trick against Stoke.
