Why you think this? Lukaku here is the same Lukaku last 10 years. 3 teams already paid big money for him. We got our money back for Morata.

Because he is 29 now, on £350k+ a week and any idiot that didn't think he was a Donkey before we brought him, now knows it 100%.

Exactly the idea anyone will take this huge donkey off us is ridiculous 

no one will take him even for free with the wages he is on

he will sit his fat contract out like winston Bogarde 

worse than useless cos he is drawing the team down to his level

If we had a second forward (a Giroud type) who could rotate with Lukaku when he’s out of form like this we could get by. But it’s just our luck that Werner doesn’t score either and for some strange reason Tuchel won’t just go with Kai up top these days.

If scoring goals is your reference point, then it's hilarious that you mentioned Havertz considering he hardly went on a goalscoring spree when he had that run upfront between October and November last year.

In any case, how do you know Lukaku isn't being dropped/rotated because we don't have another forward who could rotate with him? It could simply be that Tuchel has that usual manager blind spot and insists on playing Lukaku regardless of his form, performances etc. The fact that he cost 100 million is probably what is making Tuchel play him week in week out. He didn't hesitate to drop or take off Werner, Havertz, Giroud or Abraham last season, for example, when he wasn't happy with them (maybe Werner/Havertz should try their luck and go bitch to the media and see what happens).

Also, I don't get why Tuchel feels that we have to play with a reference point, a target man figure upfront to thrive. Yes, we had success in the past with Drogba and Costa but I don't get why Tuchel is trying to go down that route again. Man City and Liverpool don't play with one for example but here we are, trying to shoehorn an ill suited striker into the XI.

I don’t even just mean playing Havertz up top so he can score more. It’s just that we look way better and more dangerous without a traditional forward.

I would MUCH rather see Havertz as the striker with Pulisic, Werner, or Ziyech alongside him and Mount just behind him.

Am sure Lukaku's price tag is playing a big part here and god knows why Tuchel seems to think that we have to play with a reference point upfront. If anything, it's disappointing that we haven't seen more of the Werner-Havertz-Mount combo that worked well on the occasions that they played together late last season.

I know the source is shit but this one genuinely claims we are gonna replace Azpi..... with Adam Webster lol

Webster is a big, not so pacey CB, how would he be a RB sometimes RCB replacement?

He is a really good CB tbh. He is good on the air, good on the ball and while not the fastest, is not a slouch. Even he scored the equalizer against us, he was the best player on the pitch beside that.
