Chelsea Transfers

[Marvin123 502]

I'm getting pissed off with lukaku haters on here. You're just annoyed you didn't get the latest poster boy in halaand. If there was no rumours and gossip on halaand you would be so happy right now. You lot are not real Chelsea fans at all. I know Lukaku is gonna smash it here he suits us absolutely perfect. I personally cannot wait and believe the premier League is within reach finally!!!

Lol no. I would rather we wait than sign him. We get it some people don't like him, you don't need to suck him off. If we weren't signing him would you be a fan boy right now?

What?! If we pay 115m for fucking lukaku that’s what we paid! 
however much we made from sales is irrelevant in this.

Really overpaying for this one… so many better players potentially avail at this, or much less, price.

just watching herthas Matheus cunha for Brazil in the olympics… good promising striker and 22.

Look I'm trying to be positive about this. This is the only positive I can find.

I never want to see Tammy laying on the floor in our shirt again...

I don't want Lukaku - but I have to support the club.

Just wish we could have shipped Baka, Barkley or Drinkwater into them... oh well it's done and no amount of alcohol will change it 🤣

I did also think we could have sneakily approached Aguero 🤣🤣🤣

We could still make lukaku fail the medical if a better alternative presents itself

Obv the club will not engage in such gamesmanship but it is an interesting hypothetical question 

would you take agüero over lukaku ?

Expand  

I would. Still think Aguero is 15-20 per season guaranteed.

So you don't remember his first stint here? You don't remember him at Utd 🤣🤣🤣

People are entitled, myself included, to be dubious of this signing. Although, I hope for the positives 👍

I honestly think we need the midfield sorted before we can challenge for the league. It's a marathon not a sprint - still think City have the best squad and we ended up quite far behind in 4th... Leicester looked pretty solid - so expect them to be in the mix again TBH. Possibly Liverpool might shit the bed again...

I'm a little sceptical myself but even at United which would probably be considered the worst period in his career, he still scored 42 in 96 games. Nearly 1 in 2.

That is a significantly stronger ratio than anybody currently in our squad during their Chelsea careers. 

If he scores at around a 1 in 2 mark during his Chelsea career then his goals should be a huge positive to add to our attack.

I guess.

To cheer myself up- I watched a YouTube of his goals last season and I must confess- the Italian league looks pretty dire.

Oh well - roll on next week and let's see what happens. If he can achieve 1 in 2 - that's all that can be asked for 👍

That Zaphod guy hits the nail on the head in that thread. 😆

If now Inter are in need of players.. we can try swapping 2 of our dregs for 1 of their better players lol..

I’m resigned with the fact he will come and for the reported absurd price tag, so like @Muzchap I just hope he delivers good performances and keeps his current form (and fitness).

however, if we end up getting United lukaku then we are royally fucked. While he still scored some goals like you said, he was also where many of United plays came to die thru his poor touches and/or lack of movement.

They'd have done it in the Lukaku deal itself if they were in need. Quite clearly want cash

 

[Clockwork 1,794]

I started watching some of his individual games to see if he has changed…omg still the same Lukaku. The first touch at 1:00 mark classic Lukaku, where his first touch goes 10 yards lol. It is such a simple and easy pass he was given too.

Wrong again. 

as I said 100 times:

lukaku is a decent player but not a good deal at that price 

Bad deals hurt the long term economic plans of the club

Haaland would also probably have been a bad deal if we had offered all parties the necessary money.

no emotional investment in either player from my side. I just care about the club .

i guess it is similar with most on here who did not want Lukaku for 115m.

Well the price is so high because of two things:
- we are desperate to sign class 9

- there are not many class 9 which we can buy(Lukaku, Haaland, Kane, Lewy) so if we want anyone we need to put high bid. Just like in economy.

And im happy for him,just like said last week, i was almost sure we will get striker, CB and middlefield. We are on good way to make 2of those 3 and new middlefield depends on selling like Bakayoko.

I get you're angry because of the negativity but just because somebody doesn't like the Luakaku transfer doesnt mean they aren't real Chelses fans. That's just ridiculous
