I don't know. That's a lot of money. I'm a fan of Lukaku, but still, one hundred million pound :stonk:

This is true. Nobody remembers first touches :shrug:

And this is the biggest surprise. He's been a life long Chelsea fan, played there but didn't 'succeed' and now has the chance to go back there (now that he's really ready).
Why go back to Mourinho? And no CL football? That was also a big factor in wanting to leave Everton iirc.

He's only scored 20+ in the league once (but then tbf rooney's only done it twice) but he'd still be a big upgrade

code:

League only

If �75m is the price tag I imagine that Chelsea will match. I just hope Everton isn't still bitter over the John Stones saga and trying to gently caress Chelsea over

our main problem last year involved not being able to make the ball go in the goal, so I'm going to go ahead and say that if we buy a player who makes the ball go in the goal a lot it will be better than if we don't

Massive upgrade? After all this transfer is gonna be a replacement for Ibra

Griezmann, Lukaku, Morata etc are all great players and Man Utd would defo have been stronger with either of them if Ibra hadn't gotten injured and would have stayed with Man Utd, but neither of those players offer much more than Ibra did last season
