Barbara 15,149 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Heroic: absolutely we played like lions; top quality ... top quality flashes yes; top quality game: not in my bookWhen it comes to patience you misread my post, I don't want it now, I want us to start building properly now and allow us to fail sometimes in the process. We are playing too much for results now, and not for building the future. didn't know it was your words, I thought it was this John Keats guy - who maybe is you then.I think it's insane to assess Mourinho's work and the team with 4 matches played when we won 2 and drew 2 (the two draws against two of the best teams in the world).We disagree mate... if we're not building for the future playing Oscar, Hazard, Schürrle, I don't know what that is. Willian will join the list - also young, Mata is young himself, Kevin has been used in two of those matches. All young players with tons of talent.All comes down to Lukaku at the end of the day...

Duppy Conqueror 1,534 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Having seen his interviews and the way he carries himself, I can't agree with that in the slightest.In fact I think it's very much incorrect.He seems remarkably grounded, level-headed and mature. On the pitch he has appeared composed, calm but also enthusiastic. He's not the finished article but that's why he needs support and minutes. He could've gotten minutes at here or Everton - but he'll almost certainly get both at Everton. From that point of view it's a great loan move for him because the Everton fans will support him.Our fans? I was talking about his on-field maturity as a player. I Don't agree that he's appeared composed and calm,which are both the same thing really.enthusiastic certainly. I always support players at games,I might shake my head at a player whose doing stupid stuff on the field,but Don't spend 10grand plus a year to be a travelling boo bird.If a player comes on here to read what fans are saying about him they aren't likely to make it at a top club anyway.

Barbara 15,149 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 John Keats was a famous (tho not in his lifetime) English poet from London who died in 1821 aged 25. I sure as shit hope it's not really him.well, in that case it isn't even his date of death that gave away this is a new one also I live in a country very rich in literature and the only one I really read a lot in addition to Brazilian (and Portuguese) is Russian literature. Know very little of English literature, or American. But thanks for letting me know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far at least I don't like the underdog mentality we seem to play with against the "best" teams, whatever the results.

Rom2013 446 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Where did you see that Lukaku is better than any of our other strikers?Lukaku is a 20 years old kid that has to improve a lot if he wants to dream about a place in the starting eleven. THat's it.We can have Lukaku as our main striker but we will win nothing. Chelsea goal is to win everything. For some people here the goal of this club its improving 10 young players and pray to win something in the next 10 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stingray 9,441 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 didn't know it was your words, I thought it was this John Keats guy - who maybe is you then.Aaah barbarica ... John Keats in one of the worlds best. He wrote: I am sickened at the brute world which you are smiling with. I hate men, and women more!

Because this guy played only in teams a lot worst than Chelsea and in Chelsea he didn't play (lost one penalty in the last game it's the only thing I can remember).

GermanBlue 82 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 "I thought I would stay at Chelsea, but I was only 90 per cent sure""I had some doubts about the game time I would get. At my age, I absolutely have to play. The arrival of Samuel Eto'o had nothing to do with it.""Jose Mourinho called me and he was clear with me. It is better like that. I like it when a coach is honest. He is the best coach I have had. He wanted to make me better and did it with a firm hand. Together, we agreed that a loan was the best solution.""Other clubs were interested. For Malaga, I was not allowed to go outside England. West Bromwich Albion was also there but I didn't want to choose the easy option. We must face challenges and mine will be at Everton."http://espnfc.com/news/story/_/id/1544383/everton-loanee-romelu-lukaku-was-90-per-cent-sure-chelsea-stay?campaign=rss&source=soccernet&cc=5739 BleedsBlue, â•«rue Blue and edenhazard17 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have every confidence in Torres, Ba and Lukaku but with Eto'o we have bought experience." kellzfresh, edenhazard17 and Jose M 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goemaere 131 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 You're wrong.Have you watched WBA matches last year?Or just because he talks big, you think he's a misunderstood talent.Ask yourself why if he's such a talent, why no big clubs don't try to have him?Juve, dortmund, Schalke, were all trying to get him this summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zolayes 14,489 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 I'm not sure if we should have loaned him to Everton or kept him at the Bridge ...An alternative might have been to loan him to Stoke as that loan needonly have been 3 months . Guess Jose is best placed to make decisions like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess Jose is best placed to make decisions like this.He wouldn't learn anything at Stoke.I can see why we loaned him to Everton, they play decent tempo football, pass it around, their creative players try to find good opportunities for the likes of Mirallas, Jelavic.At the very least, Lukaku should be able to improve on his technique, first touch..which will make him a better overall player zolayes and Jose M 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
