If he was willing to come would you pay 20-25 million for Lukaku?

[fozzy]

will be different this summer (hopefully)....we still have money left from the fellaini & jelavic sales....plus the new TV money.....

add the arteta money to that as well lad.

heard it all before. many many times.

 

[BlueLlama]

I'd love him even though he can be frustrating and inconsistent. The lad is a beast who will get 20 goals a season for the next 12 years.
We don't have that type of money though so it is all a dream

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Dunno... I want footballers who WANT to play for us and I don't know if he does, on a permanent basis. I wish he did.

 

[Jimboefc97]

No. I know he is only young but he is to lazy a lot of the time and can't control the ball very well.
Definitely not worth blowing pretty much all of our transfer kitty on him when other areas need strengthening.

 

[N.S.N.O.]

add the arteta money to that as well lad.

heard it all before. many many times.

fair point

 

[tonka1878]

£19,999,999 and not a penny more.

I wouldn't go a penny over £19,999,999.99

Me neither!


Edit: Damn, forget the pennies.

 

[blue to the bone]

Lukaku plus 25 million for Ross!!!!!!

 

[nsno-chris]

Me neither!


Edit: Damn, forget the pennies.

The pennies win, the pennies win.

I posted that and when the page refreshed my heart sank when i seen you had beaten me to the punch

 

[Tubey]

Oof... erm...

Pffft...

Dunno. In an ideal world I'd like a further 12 months on loan with the option to buy for that price, just to eradicate the chance he's going to do a Yakubu and utterly die off due to his suspect attitude.

It's a gamble either way - we could pay it and he could flop badly, or we could avoid and he could be the generations new Drogba.

But you could say that about any signing.

In short, I'm pulling a @chicoazul and sitting on the fence on this one.

 

[TheCount]

£15m

Is a loan to buy an option?

I'd go with £5m loan fee (including wages) and £15m option.

 

[TheCount]

@Tubey great minds sit on the fence together

 

[Sunderland afc]

How many goals did he get last season for west brom and how Many does he have for you this season.

 

[Dexter]

See if we don't sign him we're gonna have to bed a new striker in next season, all that gettin to know your team mates again and how they play, so in that sense i'd go with trying for another season loan but buy another striker

 

[Zaschrona]

If he is the best striker available for us, then yes.
