Can't be read.

No idea how to link a tweet, reading that talks were inconclusive and Lukaku wants to leave the club. Who knows if that's true, bog standard UK journo.

Only regret is the money we spent on him, in terms of quality we lose absolutely nothing so I hope it's true.

The money is what it is, I think we all expected to invest £95m+ on a striker, whether that is transfer fee or Haaland saga etc. I haven't reacted to anything at the moment because there's been nothing except the interview and Tuchel pre-game, so let's see how it's handled from here.

The good thing for me is the performance last night was fantastic, we don't NEED Rom, do we want him as a player? Sure, 20 goals, being flexible to our tactics and no interviews, otherwise no, off you pop.

The ironic thing about this is in the last week he's been used exactly how I'd want him to be (ie when we need stat padding but left well away from the big game).

He could be an asset to any squad if he accepted his strengths and weaknesses but he wants a role he simply isn't good enough for and it makes him look like an idiot quite frankly.

He's got the ego of CR7 without the ability level to back it up.

Is there any club that would be willing to pay 60m for this guy? 

Can Juventus do it or even newcastle utd. If it continues like this he will disrupt the dressing room even more.

He'll think playing for Newcastle is beneath him no doubt. 

Juventus and Atletico maybe. Only two real options imo.

No he wont, TT and the club wont allow it.

True, but the earlier that guy leaves the better for everyone.

What do you mean? When both Costa and Morata were causing a disturbance, the club sold them ASAP.

Jorginho, Cesar Azpilicueta, N’Golo Kante and Antonio Rudiger were among those consulted by Thomas Tuchel over how to deal with the Romelu Lukaku situation.

No players were sticking up for Romelu Lukaku following his interview with Sky Italia. Nobody can believe what he's done.

U really think so?

They can ban him from giving interviews but he could misbehave in other ways. Or u feel sending him to train with the reserves will do any good. If this issue isn't settled or subdued as urgent as possible it might escalate beyond redemption.

It will be worse.

Risking his attitude rubbing off on impressionable young lads would be a disaster.

If we need him out of the first team bubble then the only option is he trains alone.

You both misunderstood me or I put it out wrong. I meant that the club and TT wont allow this to continue, either he says im sorry unreservedly to anyone connected to Chels or he is off. Misguided or not his interview put us all under the buss, club, fans and team mates.....not to mention he disgraced himself.

He has already shown that this sitting him out will be dealt with like a child. AFTER he was told he will not play in the Liverpool game he went on all his social media accounts and changed from Chelsea that he is a player for Inter Milan. He is already doing childish things.
