magic weeds 446 Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Just to refresh memory of the goal that Rom was talking about: http://youtu.be/ZJC72o6KtuoThat's a beauty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jusek 2,031 Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Welcome to Chelsea, Romelu! You are already a fan favourite! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kez 2,727 Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Welcome to Chelsea Romelu! The future is looking bright! Can't wait to see him in a Chelsea shirt. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wilson 358 Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 That's a beauty.My thoughts exactly. I can relate to Romelu when he says Hasselbaink, because he was one of the first players I saw. People ask me what players made me like Chelsea, he would probably be one of the first. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Term-X 7,891 Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 It's great to see him referencing Hasselbaink like that..The claim he only supports Chelsea because of Drogba has been abolished now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jose M 140 Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 I find it funny how all of a sudden all the Romelu lukaku haters have just vanished? I don't know if anyone else remembers at least a few members of this forum referring to lukaku as a Heskey or a Carlton Cole. Anyways SOOO STOKED he's signed best day Iv had in a long time ! I have much love for Romelu and wish him luck . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lentherussian 86 Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 As every other cfc fan has done i was watching the clips on youtube and love the fact that we seem to have signed a player who loves football and seems to be in it for the right reasons. Also the clip of him visiting the ground is an absolute beauty of a crowd winner, its what all young footballers should be like. My favourite clip is when hes running with two defenders and puts all his body to hold one off and as the other comes at him he almost tries to fend him off with his head, desire to win and give everything is glaringly obvious and what youl need to succeed in prem. Knowhere need the finish article but id bet my bottom dollar hel try to be the best he can. Something which i think if sturridge had would be playing for england right now. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have much love for Romelu and wish him luck .I am not a big fan of his game but you gotta respect the guy after the passion and desire he showed to play for chelsea .I don't think he is a heskey or a carlon cole but from what i have seen he is not a drogba as well , he is more like an adebayor if you ask me but with better potential.The main reason i was against this move was that i ve always hoped for more direct , pacy football with 2 proper wingers (Mata/De bruyne - Hazard/Neymar) and El nino esque player in front of them , i was looking for an improvement from the drogba era but i can't see how Lukaku would be an improvement from DD , Let's just hope that he lives up to the hype and be just as good as drogba. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Badboy 1,526 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 @Blionheart i am really happy we are continuing our culture of a big powerful striker at Chelsea with skill around him. He will give prem league defenders a big problem. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Badboy 1,526 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 If we get the right service to him then he will score, his 2 headers against ajax were superb in my opinion. My brother was at that game by the way and he said Romelu plays brilliant with his back to goal but he also said he is ultra fast something didier is not. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
