Sideshow Luiz 2,310 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 I had kind of moved on and talked myself in to Belotti. I'm having a hard time getting back in to Lukaku. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robsblubot 3,595 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 I would have been quite happy if the club had come out publicly and said that it had no interesting in Lukaku, esp at this price. Now, it is getting embarrassing... I personally believe the player will always follow his agent, so I think it is a lost cause anyway. I don't like Lukaku too much as a footballer, but this whole ordeal will have negative repercussions to the club esp in this transfer window. And I am not even talking about the fact Lukaku was sold for a fraction of that to Everton, who are the only ones laughing right now (all the way to the bank). But then again, aside from a couple very specific signings, this club has not been very competitive in the transfer market for many years now. We might as well get used to it.

MrExcalibur100 7,124 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Our board has seen sense at the last moment. Insane to let a player with his level of goalscoring potential join Mourinho and we just sit back and do nothing. Lukaku will easily eclipse Costa's goalscoring peaks for us. Under the guidance of Conte, he can become of one the best strikers in the world. He's just 24 and he's already one of the best in the league and I'm sure Conte will improve his work ethic for the cause. I pulled this off the Guardian comments section:  From Whoscored (if you feel the statistics presented is not accurate, do crosscheck it yourself): Bad control per game (UnsTCh) index is headed by Zaha with 3.3 per game Costa - 3.2 King - 2.8 Kane - 2.8 Januzaj - 2.8 Shaqiri - 2.7 Benteke - 2.6 Pogba - 2.6 Aguero - 2.5 Arnautovic - 2.5 Guess who is number 2. We watch him every week and we know how often he loses the ball with his poor control and the stats just happen to back that up. Lukaku with his "terrible touch" is not even in the top 10. Bernard N Y Burgesson, Amblève. and kellzfresh 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrExcalibur100 7,124 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 The only way we can save face now is if Costa and Conte can kiss and make up. But the former is an unstable psycho and will love to hold the club to ransom. He's been angling for a move away from us the moment he stepped into the club. Let's not forget his ridiculous behaviour in January with the whole China affair.  Dahnald and kellzfresh 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tautvix 1,321 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 We should have stayed away from Lukaku then. We will look like fools now. Should have better said we never wanted him. xPetrCechx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would save yourself 80-100m, and you can reinforce other positions with that money. For example test Dortmund for Dembele.

Pizy 19,280 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Now we look even worse than we did by not bidding. We went in at the last minute like desperate mugs and still lost out on him. Belotti, please! kellzfresh and xPetrCechx 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Costa can fuck off after that crock half a year since the Leicester game. He has dropped Conte completely and started playing shit on purpose. Fuck him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would've loved to see lukaku back but I think Belotti is the best option. If we are even going after him.  But easier dealing with Torino than Perez and Real Madrid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
