Definitely think we need to get Rom into goal scoring positions. He would have buried the chances that came to Oviedo and Coleman on Monday I reckon. It was difficult against west brom though because we couldn't keep the ball but deffo need someone playing him in from the 10 position.
 

Barkley and Mirallas do tend to overshoot sometimes when he makes good runs but other than that his touch is poor at times and he's out of form.

At 20 am I concerned no, am I concerned we don't have back-up yes, this is not a good position to be in with no back up forward to rotate.

He shouldn't talk to reporters when visiting home though never goes well, how many players are made to look like divs when the English press get hold of some half assed comment.
 
I don't think he's moaning about long hoof balls to his head. He's more moaning about the ball being played to his feet and his lack of ability to control it and lay it off. This has been going on all season and I think he's probably frustrated; as when it gets to him he loses it.

He's definitely much better with a ball that he can run on to.

I can see now why Mourinho doesn't rate him. He's not very good when it comes to holding the ball up and he seems unwilling to try and become better at it

Part of the reason we couldn't keep the ball was down to Rom though. 46% pass completion!
Think we could have done with Kone against them.
 

Started to rub me up the wrong way Lukaku. His performances the last few weeks have been Yak-esque, his childish Anelka comments and the Belgian article saying he's playing the wrong role. Can't wait to see the back of him if i'm honest, he's just using us as a stepping stone, I'd rather get someone in who at least has a go and keeps their head down and doesn't back Nazis. Not fishy one bit.

This.
 
@HLNinEngeland: It won't be the first and last transfer rumour about Romelu #Lukaku: according to the Mirror #CFC want to sell him this summer.'
 
Maybe we haven't really spent anything during January because we're trying to make sure that we can afford Lukaku if Chelsea decide to sell in the summer?

I've always thought this was a high possibility tbh. If Jose can sell mata he sure as sh... will sell lukaku if he's got other players in mind!
 
Well Chelsea heavily linked with Diego Costa from athletico Madrid in the papers today. Really don't think Jose fancies lukaku. As with regard to his form, when Barkley and piennar get back in the team so will the supply line to lukaku.

I guess we have to make sure that the money is there just in case.

Fellaini £27.5m + Anichebe £6m + Jelavic £7.5m - Joel £2.5m - McCarthy £13m - Kone £6m - McGeady £1.5m = £18m.

I know that there are loan fees etc to come out of it but, if he does cost £23m, it will be much easier to find the final £5m or to do a deal with Chelsea than to try and find the lot in one go otherwise.

If Barry signs on a free and Deulofeu comes on loan for a second season we'll look in very good shape.
