well done blues, plenty of positives. well done for jela, but he's clearly not worthy of displacing lukaku in the starting line-up. lets hope it's just risen his price, like the feller, but don't be fooled by 2 goals against the worst team we've played all season.

hope we get cardiff away for another nice trip for me

He had a full season of chances last year. He doesn't deserve a chance against Norwich more than Lukaku.

Nonsense. Last year is last year, now is now. One striker has had two good displays off the bench over the last month and scored a brace today, the other has done sod all.

Jelavic has done enough to earn the start next time out. If he performs poorly, then he should be hauled off, but no player at the club should be an automatic starter regardless of form.
 

People saying QPR are one of the worst opponents we've faced for years. You can only beat what's put in front of you, though.
 

That wasn't even a full strength QPR side, and they played by the sounds of it like absolute w*nkers who weren't arsed. I highly doubt Jelavic bagging a brace against them means he could do the same in a highly competitive PL fixture.

The extra rest will do Lukaku the world of good, and he really is the only option to start with next weekend. What this might do is show potential buyers that Jelavic can still score, or at the very least give him a personal boost so he can become a half decent option off the bench instead of the absolute waste of space he's been over the past 18 months.

Ha Ha.

Lukaku should be dropped for Jelavic.


Read that back to yourself.

Dunno about that. Shrewsbury and Oldham were turbo gash at the time, we just made them look like world-beaters.
