Lukaku's not worth anywhere near £30m. £20m absolute tops. Even that looks generous if Origo or whatever his name is, who looked a carbon copy of Lukaku during the WC (good and bad points), is only £10m worth.

Chelsea paid far too much for him originally.

He wasn't anything like a carbon copy mate....

Or Borini worth £14 million .The market decides the value

I'd just like us to do some early business for a change if only to allow the players to do as much of a pre season as possible.

No-one's paid £14m for Borini though, so the market hasn't yet set the bar. That was kopite spin (again)

Origi has scored 4 goals...in the french league.

Lukaku has scored 30 or so in the prem.

People who think Origi is something special after seeing him score 1 goal for Belgium.

Origi is [Poor language removed]. I've seen him play in france and even there he didn't impress me.

In the greater scheme of things he isnt worth it - Kroos going for £20 million shows that - but in the bizarre world of English transfer fees he is definately worth between £20 and £30 million; he is one of the top scorers over the past two seasons and is 21.

Spot on. Staggering that people put Origi in the same category as Lukaku and some even label him better after 1 or 2 decent games in the World Cup. lol

Here lads, my dubious Lukaku clock has more journalistic integrity than The Mirror. He'll come, don't fret.

You may be joking lad, but now I'll have this open until it runs out FFS.
