These players who are ready to play at the top level, they don't want to be just constantly loaned out, they rather find a permanent club where they can be properly part of the team.

He wasn't pushed out on loan, Lukaku asked/demanded to go out on loan. He was too afraid to compete against a 33 year old Eto'o, Shit Torres, and Ba.

Same right now, he doesn't like his chances against Costa. He simply wants to be handed the starting role like at WBA and Everton. He is not good enough to be number one at Chelsea but absolutely great to have as a number 2 choice, and hopefully down the road be the man at Chelsea. Mr. Lukaku thinks he is too good for that.

If he really doesn't want to compete here, then no loss imo we are going to profit off of him anyway.

compete? lol you guys are leaving in a fantasy

if you are a young striker and you see the likes ba, etoo, torres ahead of him, there really is no point sticking around.

he is a kid, he needs to play to develop, not "compete" lol.

so he proved himself on loan and your manager again sign a 40 mil CF . What is he going to compete about? Costa will star for chelsea, that's the choice your management made, so there is no room for him, it's not rocket science.

he has a career to build. that fantasy about competing is rubbish because the dices are pipped from day one.

good lad Lukaku, he is taking his career in his own hands. like u said, no loss for chelsea, everyone win.

You're as deluded as he is.

Shed wrote:Blasphemy! Didn't you hear? Lukaku deserves an automatic, guaranteed #1 starting position at the club with zero competing strikers alongside him in the squad no questions asked and that is THAT!


Fight for and earn his place? Heresy!!

Only two ways I can see him returning with a starting spot.

"The thinking was, first of all, the fact that Romelu was always very clear with us that in his mentality and his approach he was not highly motivated to come to a competitive situation at Chelsea."

"He wanted to play for Chelsea but clearly only as the first choice striker – and at a club of our dimension it’s very difficult to promise a player that status."

"That reduced, immediately, his desire to come to us. After that Everton came with an important offer and because we want to be inside the Financial Fair Play rules, you have to analyse these situations."
