It's a done deal FFS!

You might as well say 30 million considering we've already pocketed close to 50 million (or maybe more) from sales this summer.

Did not see that coming. No Abraham to Villa then...

Yeah, we know Lukaku is coming but not sure what Broja has to do with that. If anything, it's Abraham but we know he'll be gone too.

I don't think so...yet. Tuchel will likely rotate again, especially once we hit September but I go back to the point I made earlier this summer, Tuchel is gonna have a hard time trying to keep everyone happy particularly as we look set to stick with the back 3. And it's also why I suggested that Mount be used deeper in midfield. Yes, I know he hasn't convinced in the pivot and what Tuchel said last season but he could make it work with a tad more time in training now than last season. I mean, if Conte could manage to turn Azpi into a CB in a back 3 and Moses into a half decent WB, then I would like to think someone of Mount's versatility and capability that he might adapt in the deeper role under Tuchel.

Is that based on the assumption that Havertz is gonna start every game...?

If Lukaku doesn't win us the sextuple this season, you're gone!

What can we do to you if you're wrong? 👀

By the way, remember all that argument about the club always do things quietly in the transfer window? 🤣

One thing is for sure, you can bet your arse that there will be racial abuse towards Lukaku whenever something goes wrong.

So? Lukaku is supposedly one of the best strikers in the world right? He's supposedly improved in the last 2-3 years right? Then he better win us the Premier League because otherwise, what's the point? It's not like we can't win the domestic cups or even the Champions League without him.

Competing for the title? Given Lukaku is supposedly all great now and the amount of money we're about to throw at Inter to sign him, he better win us the Premier League title. Otherwise, it's all for naught!

Guessing this will be the decisive bid.....

Well to Conte, Lukaku is probably like Messi given how obsessed he was with him. How is it OTT when Conte built Inter around Lukaku? He is absolutely their most important player. Conte may use the same system (or formation) but it's different in execution.

Just because someone misses chances, doesn't mean the system is built to have a #9. Having a system and then putting in players to make the system work (what Tuchel has been doing) is entirely different to having a system entirely based around one player (which is what Conte did at Inter).

The chances missed aside, the thing with our current setup is that we're able to create lots of chances because the front 3 has got good movement and understanding between them and they are interchangeable and that's without an out-and-out #9. If we put one like Lukaku in, that whole thing is gonna change. We might still create the same amount/type of chances or we might not. And it's also worth noting that he's been highly successful at Inter because Conte created a system and style that were based around him. Tuchel hasn't done that with anyone here. Can Lukaku thrive if the system is not built around him?

Better off just going to Bayern then.

lol

It actually says Inter have two targets in mind - one being Zapata - if Lukaku does end up leaving.
