Lukaku himself choose Everton, though his agent advice him to stay at Chelsea... WBA want to loan back Lukaku oso, but failed... so they buy anichebe...
I hope Eto'o can bang tonnes of goals to make up for Lukaku loan deal..and for Ba..better step up your performance..because you refuse to go on loan..shifting the attention to Lukaku to go on loan..
agree on experience but are you sure about quality?
how is quality being measured for a striker? just a food for thought.
2nd, with the amount of exposure hour torres and ba got last season, it is logical they will have (or should have) a lot more goals than lukaku. what if lukaku is also given the same amount of chance to shine?
torres look good in past few matches but as posted before, how optimistic we should be after all these years? hopefully optimistic will win us all the cups..
I will be all about quality..I do believe that something lacking there with Lukaku..or else he will never be on loan..he is Mourinho favourite type of striker..
for the 2nd..I will trust Mourinho effect..to lift our 3 strikers..I know this is superstitious..but..I choose to believe that..hahaha
Hard to say....Jelavic is suffering from goal drought, Vellios has not settled down as first choice striker, Kone lacks the physical side in his game. Lukaku might just get his chance at being in the starting 11. A few goals will almost guarantee him a starting line up. Look at west brom, they had Long, Odemwingie, Rosenberg, but Lukaku still started quite a number of matches during his time in WBA.
plus James McCarthy can supply him !
we will try to look at this loan as a positive side for him..
If we struggle by January maybe we can recall him..or buy his loan contract..
if the club pay the loan fee..usually there is no recall clause..so chelsea must buy the loan contract..pay some money to the loaned club so that they will release the player from the current loan contract..paving the way to return to the mother club..
The transfer window came and went for Chelsea, and the only first team move of note on deadline day involved Romelu Lukaku. The giant Belgian will be spending the 2013/14 season on loan at Everton, leading the line as they attempt to qualify for European football.
Kristof Terreur spoke with Lukaku about the move, and he had quite a few interesting things to say:

Personally, I'm glad we kept the player in England as opposed to sending him to Spain. He'll face better quality competition in England more frequently than he would in La Liga, and he'll likely be forced to work on the things his game lacks more often as well.
As long as we didn't damage our relationship with the player, I'm not nearly as fussed with this as I was last night. A year away at Everton will almost certainly have him ready for Chelsea, and hopefully he'll be here banging in the goals next season.
I could not agree more on the Belgian-trio, would have loved to see them thrive along side one another And yes, thank the heaven's we did not land Rooney - never needed him in the first place, believe that under JM, Torres should improve a whole lot more
Torres will be beast !!! Super-Saiyan Mode SCORING MORE GOALS IN THE LEAGUE THAN LAST SEASON !!! and improve his overall goal tally..lets break his best 33 goals #ultimateoptimism
Loved ur optimism bro... but how many seasons we had been saying that? Hopefully this season will come true...
hahaha he is the only prime striker in the team..eto is old..but i think he still deadly..just like didier..Ba..i dont see him starting more game than Torres..
yes..we said this every season..and the result were...
2010–11 - 1 goal
2011–12 - 11 goals
2012–13 - 22 goals
2013–14 - if he follow the same trend he will be on 33 goals
Lukaku has an option whether to join Everton or WBA, but he chose Everton due to bigger club and friend(Kevin Mirallas)
QUOTE
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has defended his decision to let Romelu Lukaku join Everton on loan on Monday.
The Belgium international striker, who spent last season on loan at West Bromwich Albion, will play this campaign with the Toffees.
"It is important for Lukaku," Mourinho told Chelsea TV. "We have Samuel Eto'o, Fernando Torres and Demba Ba, and of course he would have had chances to play but another thing is to play basically every weekend.
"He had [possible] clubs, he had options and he made that decision, I have to respect that decision and hopefully it goes well for him and it goes well for everyone."
Lukaku, 20, joined Chelsea from Anderlecht in 2011.
all talk about giving opportunity to the young lads at the club before just a pure lie. dafuq la mou want to loan out lukaku and bring in eto'o. stupid decision by the special one. hopefully eto'o can score at least 50 goals for us this season.
hahaha kucing rant..
slowly lah mate..this season MVG..KDB..Kalas..most of our player is young and dont have vast experience same like Eto..only Lukaku that supposed to be here..but he decided to go on loan..
I'm worried for our No 10 - Juan Mata.... he's such a brilliant player.... dunno what is Mou thinking now? Please Mou, give Mata 1 start to a game and you'll be impressed.... Come on... give Mata a chance....
reported that as for now..Mourinho will ease Mata to 1st team..and Mou want Mata to rest after 2 years of non stop playing even every summer..for about a month..
