Romelu Lukaku

[English Freak 456]

Why did we bother to keep Lukaku till deadline day if we were planning on loaning him out?

I'm glad he went to Everton and if he doesn't get his chance at Chelsea sooner rather than later, hope he leaves and proves his critics wrong by enjoying football (Like Sturridge at LFC)

[ZOS 580]

why wasn't he given a chance... forget starting a PL game, why wasn't he given a good 30 minutes? how on earth is ba staying while the best preseason striker is loaned? ... chelsea fc is getting accustomed to breaking young players heart

[LukakutoStamford 779]

It's not going to matter for the Belgian NT. Benteke is better atm and his style is much more suited for the NT's style atm. Lukaku will be an impact sub who will get chances to sub for Benteke or play along side him. It's not not indcitment on Lukaku but rather a statement on how well Benteke is playing.

[ZOS 580]

offloading Ballack after he was injured while playing for us in the FA cup final and dropped off the German NT was very cruel thing to do, and now this ... after missing that penalty, he'll be heart broken... really wtf?

[The only place to be 11,313]

Glad he's gone to Everton - they're a great club with great supporters who will give young players fantastic support.

If only there was another team who played in blue whom I could say the same about.

What does Lukaku has to do to play for Jose ?

The 17 goals last year was not good enough ?

How is this Jose treating young & talented player ?

Is this the way to go by bringing an old Eto´o who played in some shitty Russian league & keeping two useless strikers ?

Ba is staying because no one wanted to overpay for him. We were asking for 3 million loan fee...and unless you're desperate for an average striker, you're not going to pay that fee.

So much for Jose promising to bring young players.

This was the wrong move for Chelsea.

The kid established himself last year, played well enough in pre-season, was promised to get a chance by bombastic Jose & now, he fucked him.

Chelsea bought an old geezer Eto´o & who knows how he will perform.

BA, Torres, Eto´o 3 useless strikers. Meanwhile, Lukaku = young, explosive but was sent packing.

He would have provided plenty of quality minutes as a substitute. His 17 goals were 6th most in the PL last year & more than fucking any player from Chelsea.

As I said, WRONG DECISION.

And he made al those goals in the few minutes he got comparing to others

Interesting move. He's better than Ba and Torres no question so wonder why he was loaned out to Everton?

Either way since it's World Cup year, this move will help in him getting lot of playing time.

BEST OF LUCK ROMELU!

Its quite simple, he's not ready yet to play for club like chelsea, for godsake he's barely 20 years old!

This loan just proves that mourinho DOES care, else he would leave him on the bench and give him some minutes here and there , that wouldnt give him the needed playtime to develop further, doesnt it?

Best of luck romulu, im convinced you will come back better and stronger than ever!

[edetarod 2,155]

good deal for him

he wasn't good enough yet to play for us

What does his age got to do with it ?

How many talented players have you seen to prosper even at 20 ?

I saw plenty.

You are convinced Lukaku is coming back, why ?

If I were him, I´d ask to play elsewhere. Just like Courtois might.

Come on.

It's not like a big club would try to have him.

I think there's a great possibility he will never have the level to play as the main forward in a big club like us.

I wouldn't be disappointed if we sell him next year.

I would be more disappointed if we have to sell Courtois.

Every player is different mate, and to be fair i dont think romulu is ready at this moment to be a regular starter here at chelsea but he need playing time for his development.

Why im convinced he will be back?,because he loves chelsea very deeply and will work very hard to be ready for leading our attack

Bull....Lukaku has more talent than any striker around.

If you were to sell him, then you have no clue about talented footballers.
