Badboy 1,526 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Done well this season with West Brom.Hopefully we manage this one right and doesnt end up being a case of sent on loan after loan then never comes backThe only striker we've had that has done that well on loan was Sturridge. This guy will make it we invested heavily in him because of his performances in the Europa league at 17 years of age. He's someone who we can really mould like we did with Didier and he'll keep improving with time. I read that as soon as he came on against United they were put on the back foot because of his strength and that is what we need upfront !

Stats 7,142 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Enjoyed watching his hatrick on MOTD. My opinion is that he is better than Ba and Torres. He should not be behind any of them. Basically, Lukaku has everything Torres and Ba have but they don't have everything he possesses. Will be a hit next season, can't wait.

mediator 2,026 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 ---------- Lukaku ----------Hazard - Mata - Di Maria----- Oscar -- Capoué ---We don't need to spend big on a striker, just sign a real world class RW and a great DM and Oscar / KDB as playmaker in the pivot. 45 - 50M £ at most.Oscar is a beast in tackling and does a hard work, he would fit our pivot perfectlyBa as Lukaku's replacement and get rid of TorresThat would be a world class counter attacking team!

Lets see if Mourinho and the board can find a great deal for our RW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fernando 6,585 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 So the Belgium revolution hey?I'm glad that this club wise up to that before it was too late and bought promising young talents from there. If only we would have done that with Spaniard players earlier, but oh well, we doing good with capitalizing on the Belgium's hearts and mind!

Mikael Forssell at the age of 22 scored 17 on loan at Birmingham. His career was ruined by injuries though, not much chance of making it at Chelsea with a couple of bad knocks to the knee and the club starting to spend big around that time.

yuvala 2,167 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Think he needs 1 more year at loan.. or be 2nd striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waterfall 893 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 I think he's ready to contribute. Not sure if it will be as a first-choice striker, but he should get his minutes either from rotation or as a sub. He does well when coming off the bench. yuvala 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Forssell would of been a great striker for Chelsea if those injuries didn't ruin him I really liked him too. Jype 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only did well at one club. After Birmingham, he became a below-average striker, never really developed. Kinda glad we let go of him all those years ago..

Kinda glad we let go of him all those years ago..After Birmingham he didn't do well because his knees started acting up, much like Essien and countless of other players only with a difference that his knees got dodgy at such a crucial age and he never got to develop further because he was always injured. It was the right decision to move him on but without all the injuries I'm sure he would have turned out a better player.As Forssell's countryman I have followed his career during and after Chelsea for both the national team and club career. He was very highly rated but like I said, the injuries fucked him up. Spike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post! HillWBA 77 Posted May 20, 2013 Popular Post! Share Posted May 20, 2013 Nothing to see here ! send him back in July please!!He was unbelievable today. He came out at HT stripped off in full kit to warm up about 5mins before any other player came out. He meant business. Fantastic season for the club and the lad. We'll love him at Albion regardless what happens Stats, The Mak, Bolt from the Blue and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
