Lukaku

[KevMirallas]

He was ridiculously concussed when he came back on, and they still couldn't deal with him. It's a little scary how good he is.

he's only 20 ffs. i'm going to keep saying it until i believe it

He was here there and everywhere. Leading line, linking play, coming short(possibly a little too much?) shooting, scored, got others fired up, tricky interplay on edge of area and spreading it wide. Brilliant awareness of team mates but direct and pacey too!! What a debut!

Think Chelsea will try again to sign Rooney. Or Falcao. Or another striker like that. Gotta hope that Etoo/Torres do enough for whoever's Chelsea manager at the end of the season to keep them and not want Lukaku.

Lukaku may have enjoyed playing for West Brom, just think how he'll feel among his full home debut in a night game at Goodison vs Newcastle.

He inspired me to get back on Twitter and that's as close as you can get to a miracle.

 

[rizzoaus]

Seriously hope Chelsea buy another striker and by some miracle we are able to get this bloke permanently

Man crush.

....more Monster than Beast. He just makes everybody else on the pitch look tiny, bit like watching an adult playing schoolboy football. Watched in the pub, 7 tellys with rs on and 2 with us. Them with replica shirts on acting deluded. Its so precious in that atmosphere when we get a 'never felt more like singing the Blues....' day. No replica shirts in view at the end.
Well done Saints, by the way. I had a pre-season handicap bet on them because they were impressive last season. I know Ijjy reluctantly agreed they could do well.

Don't wish to label him as such,but let me say his playing style is that of a much younger Drogba.
A monster !!

I'd forgotten what a forward looked like.

Yep this guy is a player we need . We really do need chelsea to make some big buys . There's only 3 options though that's falcao Rooney or benteke . Lukuka and Honda would be a dream

 

[Foot Long Hot Dog]

A majestic debut, power, pace, strength, touch, vision, committment, changed the game totally when he came on, what a signing by Martinez.

 

[Jags..class]

We wont be buying him but lets enjoy him for a season, just relieved we don't have to rely on Jelavic or Victor like last season, that was a nightmare and I was wondering why didn't Moyes get Lukaku in last season on loan.

 

[degsy]

5-6M for Anichebe / Jelavic

20M for Lukaku

you get what you pay for... or in our case borrow

( What was Maureen thinking )
