7pm News Conference 30th July (defo Rom)

[TyphooToffee]

Give me a B....Give me an L....What have we got? Lukakblu!

 

[TomDixie]

ESPN SportsCenter in the USA tweeted about it!!

$47m sounds so, so huge!

This can only increase our fan base over there.

 

[Toffeelover]

What annoys me is that some people elsewhere sat we have not improved our squad because we had them last year. That is rubbish they are permanent so Roberto can plan accordingly the squad has been stabilised and also young players coming on stream. Add to that a new signing by the name of Besic and perhaps one or two mote to come. Look to the ages of our team as well.

 

[Superhans1878]

We've got a striker who, injuries permitting, guarantees 20 goals next season. Feels good that doesn't it?

 

[The Esk]

How articulate is Lukaku? very impressive for a 21 year old, says all the right things.....

 

[Petit]

Snag

Wonerful, simply wonderful.

couple of loans and the 2 young lads added and shut up shop.

Could do with getting Mirallas on a new deal though too.

Yeah though about that today. With Rom and Barks just signing I don´t reckon it´ll be too tough a sell to get Kev to commit for a couple of more years.

He doesn't ^^ If he gets around 15 that's a good start, anything more is a bonus. 20 goals a season is a much bigger ask than it looks on paper for a 21 year old.

Agreed. We now have the best young squad in the league!

 

[Woolly Blue]

Lukaku thread locked? :O

No mate.
When threads are being posted to a lot they auto-lock for < a second to make the database can cope.
Christ that's a dull explanation but @Bryan will like it

Meanwhile

*windmills at a signing for loadsamoney.

feck, ouch.

*makes note not to windmill next to a kitchen table. Should make going for a p later interesting.

Its nonsense that since all the youngsters are coming into the team too

What they are saying I mean

With Barkley and the rest signing contract extensions and with us just splashing out on Lukaku i think Mirallas would be open to signing an extension everything at the club looks like we going forward and he can be a big part of that.

 

[Neiler]

Would suck to be David Moyes watching SSN right about now!

Let the people elsewhere talk. They will prove it on the pitch!

 

[irishtony1878]

Feckin internet froze during the conference.
Did Roberto mention any other signings to come in?

 

[Buckers]

Rooney?

chelsea signed him for £11mil plus add ons, there has been no add ons, not a bad profit.
