Stats 7,142 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 Good thing he scored 2 good goals but bad thing is he hit the post like 2 times, missed a few others and unfortunately was on the losing team. But apart from that he was a real handful, absolutely sensational today and unfortunate to be on the losing side. Very pleasing to see though that he is bagging the goals and most importantly enjoying his football down there. I hope he becomes a big part of our future here!

Muzchap 8,966 Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 When he was actually given playing time and some regular appearances, even if a lot were just off the bench...Yup - some players need regular playing time to get sharp - he's going from strength to strength and just 19!!!Him, BA and Falcao / Lewandoski fella = awesome strike force Hutcho 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even think ba and lukaku would be a great partnership... 3 would be better for possible injury problems but we have a hell of a lot of young talent out there.

Hamilton 2,120 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Great performance, nice header to bad it hit the post. And what a rocket shot with his left at the bar.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushman 2,043 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Something smells fishy at Stamford.When I see Lukaku popping goals in, I just wonder whether those at Stamford are seeing it too ?If this kid is not offered a real chance to play for Chelsea next year, something is seriously wrong with the team, I feel.It´s a pleasure to see him on the pitch. His size, relentless drive on the net, scoring touch, he is going to set the PL on fire, providing Chelsea won´t screw him up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ankit 3,176 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Read this on twitter - Lukaku is the kind of fearsome beast that children should be afraid of before going to bed. He can backflip too. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TorontoChelsea 4,064 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Him,Ba and lewandowski is my dream strike force for next season. Too many strikers. City and United can get away with having 4 strikers because they play with two at the same time so it's 4 players for 2 spots. We have one striker position so whoever the third striker is would never get to play. If you're going to buy Falcao or Lewandowski or any big name striker, you want him starting 35-40 games. That leaves 20-25 more starts. Last year, we played 61 games and our #3 striker started 4 times. Is Ba going to be happy starting 10 games a year? Is Lukaku going to develop barely getting to play? Chelsea need two strikers and then someone else who can play there if needed. I'm also fine with having our third striker as someone from the academy who could fill in, in case of emergency much like Ake is doing this year.

TrippingStep 336 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Lukaku just needed to be a bigger fish in a smaller pondI just think he's better when he has space in front of him.He's a counter-attack forward.Football is a funny game, his header and shot to the bar deserved to be a goal while his second goal was poor play by the goalkeeper.

YouNameIt 1,511 Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 We cannot have more than 2 quality strikers with the formation we are running.So, first of all we need to get rid of Torres. Hopefully that happens in the summer. Then, if we are buying someone like Falcao/Cavani, and we still have Ba, recalling Lukaku under those circumstances would be stuipid.I cannot see Ba leaving us in the summer already, so I am really worried what will happen with Lukaku. Im afraid someone will buy him.Ideal for me would be Falcao/Cavani + Lukaku. But what happens with Ba? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
