Ed, its no secret I'm NOT a Lukaku fan. Please tell me that our interest in him has cooled?
Thanks as always.
{Ed002's Note - The situation is unchanged. There has been a lot of effort to persuade two people at the club that he should be forgiven for a previous indescretion and allowed to return. Those efforts continue.}

I would stay away form Lukaku at all costs. There is something hidden about him that makes me sceptical. I believe he is emotionally weak and if he does not deliver straightaway he will collapse. I prefer men like Drogba and Costa to lead our attack. Harry Kane, Griezmann and Sanchez are more psotive and confident strikers for me.

One complaint issued against Lukaku is that he hasn't produced against the top teams. This is not a fair criticism since he does not have the team around him to produce against the very best.
My complaint against him is his lack of close ball control. He is fine running on to the ball or running against a defence with the ball but his foot work is lacking, not very good considering how Chelsea play with Costa, Pedro and Hazard. With the quick passing Chelsea play in and around the box Morata would be my choice and his all-around game is superior and more suited to our style of play.
Unfortunately, Michael Emanalo is one who is pressing for his return.

I hope the two people at the Briidge hold there ground and block Lukaku's return.
I agree with many other fans. The bloke has an awful first touch.

It'll be up to RA in the end.

Which 2 people are holding up ed?
{Ed002's Note - It is unimportant.}

Really don't understand the hate for Lukaku, pretty young still, scores goals (proven in the premier league! ) and is a Chelsea fan. Moaning about his first touch is odd given Costa is very poor at control and dribbling and his goals always seem to dry up part way through the season for a couple of months. Lukaku getting better service in our team could comfortably get 30 goals a season so I for one would welcome him back.
