Morata's definitive answer on Real Madrid and referees
The Atletico Madrid striker was asked if he feels treated the same by referees now as when he was in Real Madrid.
Álvaro Morata gave this Tuesday morning, in an interview, a master class of saying everything without saying anything. The Atlético de Madrid striker, in a talk in which he made an extensive review of all current issues, was questioned about the role of referees, in the eye of the hurricane in recent matches, with special mention of Atleti-Real Sociedad of this last day.
However, the question asked Morata was not focused on this last chapter of the controversy but on a more general scope. The striker of the Spanish national team was asked if Real Madrid receives better refereeing treatment than the rest of the LaLiga ES Sports teams.
The journalist's question was clear: "Do the referees treat you the same playing now at Atletico as when you played at Real Madrid?" And the answer, too: "You already know the answer. And everyone knows it too, "said the striker. And the journalist insisted: "But I want you to tell me." "No, you know," Morata said again. "You're not answering me, that is, it's a no," the reporter clicked again, who failed to get Morata out of the "you know it".
Recall that last week the former Real Madrid player Sergio Ramos, now at Sevilla, said that "now I have to suffer the referees" in a veiled allusion to the favors they usually give to Real Madrid.

The whole world is aware of the undue favour real madrid is enjoying from the referees. The most corrupt club ever!

Some things are funny. Ramos has the most red cards. Ronaldo in a Classico (super cup) pushed a referee and got 4 matches ban. In 2008, Messi did same and went unpunished. Messi was spared because the referee didn't include that incident in the match report. What favors do people talk about?

Naw. Ramos comments did not suggest he got favors from Refs while at Real. Infact, he got more red and yellow cards. Morata simply tried not to get drawn into the referee debate as well. He said " you know " because journalists are doing everything they can to create a scandal and get Real Madrid drawn into it. Pro- Barcelona journalists are talking loosely and making conjectures at Real Madrid since the Barcelona referee bribery scandal

Trying hard to drag Madrid in the ref royalties thing. We all saw the clean football Madrid was playing. barca is the fraud club. Even if they don't punish Barca, her poverty is enough karma.
