Romelu Lukaku

[The Rhino]

Lottery numbers please you seem to know everything

I'm sorry but I would be laughing at Burnley supporters at believing Michael Keane will still be at the club next season. Rom refused a new deal so it's a certainty he's off right away, He's ambitious and isn't all about money so rule out tin pot clubs in China or PSG in the French SPL league.

Bayern will never pay the sort of money we want, the likes of Atletico also won't be able to afford him. Leaves Chelsea, Real Madrid and Utd. Ibrahimovic looks likely to stay another season and you would have heard mumblings in the press/media if Real wanted him (see Hazard) for me only a fool would bet against a move to Chelsea everything points towards that. I've said it for a while Costa looks to have been told he can go in the summer and Roms been tapped up hence why he suddenly stopped signing that contract.

Just read the last sentence- shes on a wind up.

"You can't dismiss his ambition but it's a shame he regards such an admirable club as little more than a stop-over."

That's what I thought. She's made a few about us including having a pop when we 'supposedly' tried to buy Savage at 10p per week.

Brilliant from the club.

If you want him, buy him. But we won't sell for anything less than a mammoth fee.

And if Rom wants his big move, he can't refuse to play or let his levels drop.

Win win.

Paul Joyce (and Phil Kirkbride) just said we are putting a £100m price tag on Lukaku's head. He is staying another year, just as RK told us...

Edison cavani scored 78 goals in 104 games for Napoli and has scored 82 in 126 games for PSG.

In what universe is Lukaku better than Cavani? take the blinkers off mate.

Cavani has been slotting goals in for fun for CL teams for years, Lukaku just keeps dreaming about CL footy

France and Italy are pretty average leagues though. They're in the second tier of European leagues.

Exactly.

Look at Dzeko's record in Italy and he is an absolute donkey - like Cavani

Hahahahahahaha well done EFC

 

[nsno-chris]

You want him, cough up a cool £100m bitches

That would have been 10p too much

...the strategy is one we predicted, more specifically a mammoth price tag for any club who want him. From the players perspective, he will continue to lose circa £70k per week by not signing a contract. A significant amount if you factor in that he could've been getting that for the last 6 months.

A caveat is the John Stones situation. We kept Stones for a season against the players wishes and it didn't particularly work out for any party, albeit we got £50m. Saying that, we hold the aces and I agree with the approach.

How long before he puts cryptic images of " being a prisoner " on his twitter account?

That Chinese club supposedly offered £80-90 million for Costa so if they offer around that for him in the summer I can imagine Chelsea actually paying this price tag.

If they don't though I still think we should sell personally, can see him putting in a strop and not bothering next season if we don't sell. Personally if someone offers us £80-90 million I would sell and bring in a player who wants to be part of project Koemans building.

We should put a date on the fee too, as we dont want Chelsea (or anyone else) struggling to get a deal for other players then bid £100mill for Rom a week before the deadline.

We should say £100 mill by 1st August or he's not available at any price.
