Whatever it takes.

I love the guy, but I ain't losing a testicle.

Come on mate, not even one?

Arlarse you mate.

Arlarse you mate.

If we're a testicle short of the transfer fee, I'll consider it. Not before.

Looks like he doesnt trust his left foot . When he went through 1 on 1 on the keeper he lost possession trying to switch to his right...But who cares when he has a right foot and head like that!

 

[fozzy]

i'm trying my hardest to not get too attached to him.

as i will sob like a baby when he goes back to chelsea.

He is left footed

Hahaha I was about to say this.

While I wouldn't rule it out completely and I wouldn't want to bring anyone down on what is a boss day, I agree here.

Let's just buzz off him while he's contracted unless something concrete happens.

Even if we had 30m there is literally zero chance of signing him permanently, that's just a fact. The good news is they can't call him back which some keep asking about. We paid a fee for him and a contract was signed, it can't be broken unless both parties came to some sort of agreement, say if he broke his leg or something

oh dear

 

[SchoolOfScience]

oh dear

Oh dear oh dear haha! Testament to the lad's ability though that people are unsure on his striking foot

romelu geeing up the crowd around the 70th minute......enjoyed that.

It was like playing football at school and a lad from about 4 years older joined in. Just can't get the ball off him. He's massive

 

[slimspek]

Brilliant performance!

I'm actually really impressed with him off the field. He speaks very well and seems like an honest guy.

He can play with his back to goal. He turns sharply and runs at defenders. He can spot and play a pass with either foot. He attacks the ball in the air. Altogether an excellent debut.

By the sound of it he wants to be a starter when he goes back to Chelsea. If Mourinho, in his wisdom, decides that Eto'o, Torres or even Schurlle are his preferred striking options I think that Lukaku will ask for a move. And, if that's the case, they're not going to sell him to one of their rivals. So we should be in prime position to sign him. Maybe Chelsea will let us have him as a sweetener for first option on Barkley?
