Jose M 140 Posted September 4, 2013 Author Share Posted September 4, 2013 According to Jos'e it was Lukaku and his representatives that wanted the move on loan so he could play minutes all season. Great move for his development. We have goals throughout whole team in Ivanovic,Lampard,Oscar,Eden and hopefully Eto. We hopefully wont miss him this season or it will be the 3rd season in a row we have loaned out a striker who has out scored our own.

NiclasCFC 2,582 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 This cant be true....Romelu Lukaku on his move to Everton: "Eto'o joining us didn't influence my decision because I was already behind Fernando Torres in the pecking order anyway."

Stingray 9,441 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 the source of a lot of confusion: The opinion on the lukaku saga can differ if you adress 1) is it good for Lukaku 2) is it good for Chelsea now I say 1) yes I say 2) no, we weakened our attack (or narrowed down the options) I am frustrated as fuck a lot do not seem to discern between those two and then attack - including the 'belgian' remarks that have been going on repeat for weeks ....

BleedsBlue 1,549 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Lukaku never wanted a loan move as there was never any such option as he was guaranteed first team action by the manager.Unfortunately,we could not send Ba out so Jose chose to stick with the experience of Ba instead of Lukaku.

That Lukaku was behind Torres in the pecking order? I think that was pretty obvious in the first 4 games.

bushman 2,043 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Pecking order here, Lukaku there...the kid was told by Jose. Listen boy, you are great, I am giving an opportunity to play, but at Everton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukaku had more then Torres in the league. Either way Fernando is surely the better option for our team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnythefirst 1,076 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Torres had more goals then Lukaku last year. Lukaku had more then Torres in the league. Either way Fernando is surely the better option for our team.Since Lukaku only played in the league, you should only count Fernando's league goals. Which means 17 goals for Lukaku compared to 8 for Torres.Please be honest in your comparisons. ;-) yorkie, Stingray and semiller1313 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only place to be 11,313 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 How on earth do our fans not support him? seriously? what do we have to do to support him? demand he is a number 1 striker here (a position he wasn't even at West Brom)? I hope (actually screw that i know) he will be a great player for us in the future but he isn't yet i don't see the shame on admitting that. He has gone on a fantastic loan, short of going to Athletico Madrid, i can't think of a better (realistic) loan he could have gone on.The way some are reacting you would think he has gone to Yeovil or Vittesse.We have an increasing new breed of fan who want instant success and lack patience. That's just my opinion though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeppos 20 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Given the circumstances this is a good move for Lukaku, but it shouldn't have been.... With all the hype about Mourinho, I am far from impressed so far, I hope I will be wrong going forward though.Start rant " Since competition start we've played one decent half against... Hull... wow, outside of that one half we've played like chickens banking on some flashes of genius to score. We have, all be it very young, the nucleus of top talent in the team that can make this club to be the dominating force for years to come. I hope we are going to start playing the football and the players that can lead us to becoming that dominating force. What's the point of going for players that have proven they will never be the future of this club? Why do we start matches where every aspect of our game is geared towards us seeing ourselves as the underdog? If we fail a couple of times in the building process who the f* cares... Mourinho should be big enough to protect them against the criticism in any case. Go for it and aim to be great... We have the senior guys who are there to support, back up and nurture the younger talent and we have the young talent.

That was one of the most idiotic things I've read... far worse than many of the things I've seen here.TC continues to be the best Chelsea place to be - even if some people have the oddest opinions about our start of season, Mourinho as our manager, and the way we played.The way some people dismiss the heroic - and top quality - match we had against Bayern tell me football must be new in their country or TV.Also the impatience is amusing - rivals 5yo's who want everything right now. Too much theory and really too little real world football views.It's incredible how people don't think time is needed to progress and I've seen a heck more of progress than I've expect in four frigging matches kellzfresh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are playing too much for results now, and not for building the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
