Now I read Lukaku is only 20 year old, so what ?

This kid has monumental potential & should be given a chance to play for Chelsea as Jose promised.

There were many players at his age, performed miracles too. So why not him ?

What fucking Everton is going to offer him ?

Making do isn't an option of a top class team playing for nigh on everything.

What other topteam bar City and United have 3 class strikers? You might make me look silly here, but out of my head I can't come up with any

Chelsea needed a third striker many times last season!

It is not only about having someone to start the game, you also need a good option on the bench for when things are not going well. It is actually quite obvious we need 3 strikers...

No, it really isn't. Third strikers basically never play in a 1 striker systems and teams that play with 1 striker, don't carry three people who are really only suited for the #9 (or rather, they often do, but the third is either a 19 YO or somebody they don't care about). Arsenal had one striker last season (and used midfielder/wingers like Walcott, Gervinho, and Podolski there Spurs had 2. We had 2. That's the normal number for 1 striker systems. The reason we needed a 3rd striker last season was because our top option sucked, we played a record number of games, Sturridge wasn't trusted as a striker and then was sold, and Ba was European cup tied. We didn't need a third striker, we needed a #1 striker. Mourinho clearly trusts Schurrle to play as a striker, so if he has to start 5-10 games, we'd be fine. The third option at any position is almost never going to play
