Lukaku - 18 Million pound Chelsea player

[madstadblues]

Hmmm.....

How does loaning this type of player to another team not skue the form / results of the league ?

[toppy]

totally agree, he was a difference class.

[CayeneMatt]

Looked to me like he'd beefed up too, and he's bloody quick for his size.

[West Stand Man]

How must a player of his ability feel when he is fringed by his parent club in order to allow Torres and now Ba to get in.

he and ba will be amazing together. Torres will be on loan at slough next year.

When they first signed him I saw him as a long term replacement for Drogba. On today's performance he looks far better than Torres that's for sure

[juanpablo]

shouldn't be able to loan any player in the same league imo

[TBM]

And he's only 19

[Brianstorm]

The guy's a beast. The Baggies will find it nigh on impossible to replace him.

[SCIAG]

You should be asking (given a certain rapport between Chelsea and Reading) why is this loan player not with us?

Rapport between Chelsea and Rodgers.

The relationship between the clubs isn't that great after 1) the poaching of Rodgers and Tom Lyskov (lulz), 2) the attempted poaching of Henry, and 3) the Cech/Hunt/Mourinho incident.

But yeah, I'd have loved to get Lukaku in.

I don't think it is particularly unfair. It's not like he's even first choice for West Brom, after all, with Long and Odemwingie ahead of him.

One of the most impressive individual performances I've seen at the Madejski... Top class striker with everything needed to be the standard of Drogba. He could have had 5 or 6 today!

Means nothing- Jay Tabb is bigger than my fridge.

This, he basically carried west brom today in my opinion. We lacked power going forward until the end, but we were two nil down because only because we couldn't deal with lukaku

[marcusopp]

You all forgot one thing;
Torres and Rafa are clearly blowing each other!
I know rafa wasn't there when Lukaku went on loan, but it's funny.
PS, chelsea can presumably recall him whenever they want, right? Why the feck don't they?

[tomrfcurz]

Would not be surprised if Torres left Chelsea this month. Heard he really wants away, despite Rafa being there. Don't ever rule back a return to Liverpool, he loved it there.

That is a proper wtf chant. A fridge is generally about waist high. A fridge freezer on the other hand...

[LoyalRoyal22]

He was class.
