Romelu Lukaku

[Nic! 301]

Lot of talk in the Belgian press about how AVB's sacking might give Romelu more chances. Lukaku's manager says there's nobody in the staff who knows Romelu better than Di Mateo. "He's the one who gives Romelu individual training.". Will his situation get better? "Well, it can not be any worse than under AVB", his manager says. "You can assume that a new manager will try some new things to get the team winning. Romelu might be a solution as a substitute." Or not? "It could also be that RDM chooses for 'safety' and will only try to re-motivate the older players."

Time will tell..

I think Romelu knew AVB would get sacked if the team didn't win against WBA. Just a couple of days ago he was certain he would leave on loan next season if AVB was still manager. He didn't have problems with AVB, he added, though.

How would he know something like that?

Although thanks for informing about Di Matteo cooperation with Romelu I didn't know that.

Romelu has his ear to the ground.

'Knowing' might be a bit strong, 'sensing' is probably better.

So does that mean he thinks AVB might leave? Not really a surprise, but players know more than most..

Just like I said earlier, players know when a storm's brewing...no wonder they all lacked motivation recently

Bruma and Kalas and Courtois are successful loans

they will be ONLY if they come back to us.Remember Stoch and Matic?

Please, start him against Birmingham

Meh. Can't blame him for saying that, he's speaking on the best interests of his client.

[Kieran. 6,317]

How would he know something like that?

Many of us sensed it after the WBA loss.

Of course you can sense it but it was kinda looking for me like Lukaku knew somthing special. Still I personaly think he couldn' knew it, I doubt he recieved message form Roman about sacking Boas in case of no succes.

[Hamilton 2,118]

Does it mean something that he didn't play with the reserves yesterday for tonights game?

It's a good sign, yes. Pretty sure he'll get the start tomorrow.

[Atholy 1,293]

I surely hope so!

Also it would be great if he managed to tap in his first ever Chelsea goal => Lukaku launched for good in Chelsea outfit => No need to loan him out to Fulham next year

[Tobey Gibson 14]

Just read Frank Arnesen is on his way to London to speak about the future of Bruma, but also to discuss a loan move for Romelu!

They gave their primary striker Petric no extension so they need a player like Romelu.

[ja1 1,166]

Bertrand will also probably start :-)

[Atholy 1,293]

Frank Arnesen declares that Lukaku is no longer on HSV's shortlist for next season.

Arnesen says: "Romelu is a great talent but will most definitely not be joining us in Hamburg since he will be loaned out to another club in the Premier League next season. Especially Everton, Fulham & Bolton have a good chance of attracting this young talent".

These loans have not really done these youngsters any good recently.
