Going to a Tuchel side and complaining that it doesn't suit you, a striker, is pretty much like Nick Pope joining City and moaning that Pep wants him to pass it short.
Romelu Lukaku | Chelsea
- Thread starter RDCR07
- Start date
Aubameyang, Neymar and Mbappe may have something to say about that.
They're all pretty different to Lukaku, no?
I know he isnt a Raiola client now but he was for a long time and you can tell.
If you look at the whole interview he is lucky they were taken out of context. In context they are part of a much bigger FU to Chelsea than appeared yesterday as he doubles down hard on going back to Inter, states he would not have left if Inter had given him a new contract and then waxes lyrical about dreaming of playing for a big club like Barca or RM. He was a spoofer and a c%&$ when he was here and age has not improved him.
The minute he's not an automatic starter, guy starts talking to the press. How surprising.
Inappropriate Behavior
Absolute nonce of a human being and an overrated footballer.
What was he thinking doing this interview ? Nothing gained.

"Nonce"? What the feck?
I know a lot of people on here hate him but that's a bit much.
Don’t forget I wouldn’t have joined Chelsea if 3 other clubs wanted me or if Inter offered me a new contract!
Do you know something we don't?
My Lukaku may be a liar, a communist but he is NOT a nonce
I think it's hilarious this season is shaping out to be worse than his 1st with United.
Think I need to replay some of those interviews when he rejoined Chelsea spouting about how he was home, always wanted to be back, how much of a better player he was etc., etc., etc. Absolutely loving how the Chelsea season is panning out. 
He kept saying that he is staying, that inter is his "home" and that no "big offer" will make him leave..then as soon as the season started he signed for chelsea and left right away after cheslea bid with a huge offer (its chelsea's record club signing).
Also doesnt help that he was even in talks with Juventus. The guy is an utter money hungry clown with a huge inflated ego.
I was depressed the moment we signed him, and that frankly isn’t going to change until he leaves.
The things he could do to change my opinion of him he simply isn’t capable of doing. He’s a plodder. And I think calling him a flat track bully is wrong. Flat track survivor maybe … but he doesn’t BULLY anyone.
I felt like we signed him to make a big splash and save face when Haaland wouldn’t let BVB take our money.

So apparently some chelsea fans will boo him on sunday? is that true?
I wonder if Tuchel will even start or play him...

I'm very surprised, I always thought he was a nice guy who puts his head down, keeps his mouth shut and works hard and was treated unfairly by United and our fans.
I just don't like him
Same. He's probably the most overrated footballer in the game, if it weren't for his size and speed he would be in the lower divisions somewhere.
Funny thing is, Inter fans don't want him back after the way he left them.
Don’t be ridiculous.
Nah, not a cnut, just a chatter and a sh*t-stirrer like Palmeri and the most of Inter fans, if you want to understand the noble origin of such silly characters.
For reporting on a Sky Interview?
That’s a parody account
I absolutely love the fact he publicly twerks for Real/Barca, even done it here before our CL game with Barca 
. He's a bit like those on xfactor who think they are Celine Dion
. He's a bit like those on xfactor who think they are Celine DionThe thing with Lukaku for me is that he has an ego which makes him believe he is greater than he actually is.
He himself makes himself overrated.
Like I feel if he had the mentality of someone like Javier Hernandez who was happy to occasionally start a match, but also fine to occasionally sit on the bench - then Lukaku would be a good player for many a team because no one can doubt his ability against some of the lower league teams (which can be hard to score against).
But he thinks he is better than that - he thinks he is RVN, he thinks he is Lewandowski and should start every game and if they don't and the team loses points that they got taught some sort of lesson. He doesn't want to be part of a squad, he wants to be the main man.
You take that ego and see if he can be good or consistent enough; then you watch him on the pitch where he is tripping over his own shoelace every 20 mins and its just not worth the hassle, especially when he doesn't score against the world class clubs or defenders.
Likes to air his dirty laundry in public. This wasn’t a clever move from him, the distraction has potentially destabilised Chelsea’s team and provided a massive headache for Tuchel.
He thinks he’s pretty big time and is clearly a very good player, but he isn’t bigger than their club and is definitely not nearly as good as he thinks he is, definitely not ‘world class’ in my opinion. Over this, Chelsea would do well to put him in his place.

They were not gonna win it without him anyways. These past few months have exposed Chelsea; they never proved they were on the level of City or even Liverpool, teams that have challenged for titles in the past few years.
Placing this on Lukaku is classic Caf scapegoatism.
Sure I'm not doubting that -
But it's more the anxiety I had(people had) after Tuchel turned Chelsea to CL winners; then wondering if he would do it in the PL.
I mean it's not like they didn't try for Haaland; they did and failed - then went for Lukaku.
As soon as they did, I became pretty sure that the chances of a title win was low and didn't make sense.
Its actually fun watching lukaku interview when its against chelsea and love the timing too since Mendes said CR7 is happy
A surprising number of folks on here forgot just how much of a mercenary Lukaku is. The number of posts about how we should have kept him after he scored a few goals for Chelsea, seems that he's back to his usual self-important tricks.
He definitely gets a cut of his agents fees, he's more active in getting a move every year than any agent or journalists.
I didn't take that from the interview at all,
I look at Lukaku as a driven individual who will work hard for wherever he is in order to get to the top, similar to most players really.
Ah, it's more of Lukaku wouldn't make them title contenders singlehandedly. That I agree with.
He wanted to stay at Inter
Says he only left because they wouldn't give him a new contract
Says he only joined Chelsea after it became apparent he would not get a move to Real, Barca or Bayern
Says he will return to Inter
Says no need for Martinez to join him at Chelsea because he will be back at Inter soon
States Tuchel changed the system on him
Says he is going to talk to Tuchel to work out a system that he likes (assistant coach Rom)
Other than that, totally normal respectful interview.
As with everything else, if you find yourself agreeing with Piers Morgan, you might want to re-think things.
Huh? People and analysts were saying Lukaku was the key to winning the league due to his ability to score against lesser sides. The silly ones were points are dropped, he was the guy to fix that!?
And this guy supposed to carry Drogba‘s legacy at Cheleea where in reality he is not even 1% of what Drogba is as a professional and a person.
The blokes a cock, he ain’t even that good, thank god we fecked him off.
So he won't give up. Still I don't understand what context is missing. The more you get into all the things he said, it just gets worse.
Has Rom had anything to say since his interview ?
