Cornish Steve Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 Great finisher as his goal stats suggest. As a footballer he isn't at the level required to be harbouring upper champions league level ambitions.... quite simply he loses possession far too much and when it gets to the nitty gritty of the knockout stages I don't think managers will trust him. Lose possession and you are punished. Attitude wise he's far from my cup of tea. Hasn't stopped talking about moving since the day he arrived here. Has games that make me want to throttle him as its nothing short of criminal laziness. Worse still he spends a lot of these games moaning.... against top sides he goes missing. A bit of a tasty welcome from a centre half turns the 6ft 4 beast into a 14 stone jellyfish. When he turns it on he looks great but it's sporadic... his touch has improved from abysmal to substandard. I desperately want us to sell him for the touted money and see what the likes of Walsh can bring in. We need a striker who offers more allround in their contribution.... yes his goal stats look great but they don't tell the full story for me. You just reduced his fee by 10m!! Why couldn't you say he's the best player ever and worth at least 100m? You'll be devastated if he leaves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete0 Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 I thought we sold him last year, and before that we were cheating having him on loan. Newspapers eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 let's make a deal, he leaves we say you were right all along. if he stays your spouse has to film a video of you jumping into the mersey river. a little chilly but it's good for character. im not making that deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddock Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 Ok deal. Have to find a spot where the undercurrent isn't dangerous though. Don't jump in the Mersey, you'll be swept away wherever you jump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palfy Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 Barcelona or Madrid won't want him his first touch is well below their standard, if Chelsea have gone else where his only hope of a big move is Man United. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all reality you're correct. I said psg cause hey have the money but they won't spend it on him when they have cavani. United could use him to replace ibra and he's worked with Jose before.

Matt Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 (edited) live a little matt id rather Haf did, as has been pointed out. Anyway, anyone seen Roms tweet linked in the BBC Gossip column today? Edited May 9, 2017 by Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddock Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 He tweeted Anderlecht U23s have won the league but no mention of us winning it. Thought that was a bit shitty like. Disclaimer- in no way am I saying he should be critiised or pulled apart- just thought he would have acknowledged it as he has pals in that team.

I nearly spat my coffee out when I first seen that. All those opportunities to dismiss all the speculation about him and the first time he reacts is when they say he may not want to go to Chelsea. Says a lot.... the lad wants to go to Chelsea. I hope he goes there if I'm honest. I don't think he will strengthen them... on the contrary I just think he will struggle and they will end up blowing a huge chunk of cash on a player who doesn't suit them.

He answered a question, made no statement other than he wants to compete at the top level (as every player should) . Everything else is just speculation.

Matt Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Just a reminder. I made a slight mistake when quoting earlier. Transcript: "Are you going to sign that new contract?" - "No". "Are you still reflecting on it?" - "No" "Is there an agreement?" - "No" Sounds more like he's not happy with the one offered than anything else.

Paddock Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 I'm sick to the back teeth of it. It's like the Lukaku show. Just fucking sell him if he wants out.

At the end of the day- what he does or doesn't say is completely irrelevant, it's what he wants and I think anyone who thinks he doesn't is kidding themselves. For me- it's time to put an end to the whole saga. Sell him as early as possible get replacements in and move on. I am honestly past caring.

Someone has got to want to buy him though, i live down south, lots of Chelsea fans down here and by all accounts they don't want him back, they would rather sign Morata, i think Roms only hope is Man United, nobody else is going to buy him in the CL because they don't need him, at the end of the day he still has 2 years left here something which i think him and his agent seem to forget at times.

I think he'll got to Man U mate, I've said it all alog and Jose will claim brilliance in sending him to Everton to develop and claim all the plaudits for a master stroke in his development when in truth it will all be a load of utter dog turd. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like he's a bit of nob to be honest.... he's playing attention seeking games that we see on Facebook.. Lukaku posts:- "OMG... big decision to make." Gullable followers:- "what's the matter hun? You ok? I'll PM you" He is as good as gone.... hes effectively putting the club in a position where we sell him now or lose £30m by having him for another season.

Newty82 Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Maybe with that Sun tweet he was more having a go at the publication in terms of the recent ban at Goodison, the Barkley thing, how the city feel about the paper etc, rather than it being purely the content? If that makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
