Romelu Lukaku | Chelsea

Terrible player. Selling for fee we did was a rare good decision
 
He might be more useless than Rashford at the moment. Chelsea can’t have any more of that next season.
 
For years we were bantered about how shit Lukaku is and Chelsea still went in for him.

His move to Serie A was genius because it pulled the wool over their eyes, we got bantered for letting Lukaku go.
 
I think despite all his weaknesses, he is well-suited for a less physical league where he can easily outmuscle defenders. Will score tons.
 
Are Chelsea even going to be able to sell him? £100m and presumably big wages to go along with it. Who's gonna pay up for him? I'm sure Inter might like him back but I don't think they can afford him
 
Thought he’d do okay at Chelsea but he’s been absolutely underwhelming. It makes sense though, since Tuchel’s style seems to prefer a technical striker
 
293.5 million in combined transfer fees for him.

That's just insane when his flaws have been apparent from day 1.
 
Shows how clueless fans are at reading talent and performances.
This is a player we have seen for years in the EPL, we know his strengths and weaknesses yet he fecks off to Italy and all of a sudden we are seeing the best no 9 with his back to goal, his touch has improved so, so much etc as if we haven't already got a clear picture of who he already was.
I say we but Utd fans did give out fair warning.

To be fair, loads of fans said he didn't look any better there and he was just playing against weaker opposition. The Lukaku hype was more driven by media personalities and ex footballers.

Plenty of opposition fans as well though, played into the aren't Utd shit narrative.
They could have just waited a few months to confirm that instead of hyping Lukaku.

Nah it's your modern fans who look at stats and xG and all that pointless bs. They see a highlights clip of a match where a player scored a goal but those highlights clips never show you the chances he's missed, the attacks he's fecked, the ball's he's lost because of poor technique...
 
Lukaku's level, even on a good day, is easily closer to Chicharito's than to Forlan's and - especially - Larsson's.
 
He turned 29 yesterday so still got few years at top level in himself but selling Lukaku seems like one of good decisions our club made over last decade. Did not watch FA cup final today but judging by people's comments it looks like he's struggling with same problems like he did at United and at Everton as well. He was praised (rightly so) at Inter but Serie A is not a the same level as Premier League, with all due respect, though it's obviously one of the best leagues in football.

Chelsea probably made a costly mistake buying Lukaku for 100+ millions. Will be interesting to see if they keep him for another season, or sell him immidiately this summer. Don't think Romelu will ever score enough goals to compensate for the fact that he's making whole team play worse (at least that's how I saw his performances from few Chelsea games I watched this season).
 
I don't think anyone epitomises flat track bully more than him. You just know he'll never turn up against top teams.
 
This is Belgium all time top scorer, fecking hell.
