I don't get it why people are almost like angry he hasn't said anything to Inter fans yet. He signed YESTERDAY. Of course he's mostly concentrated on his new adventure in his new club.

I'm certain Lukaku will address Inter fans too has he said he will do that in a few days.

I also understand why he left when given the chance. Inter owner showed the ambition level to the player the minute they were ready to sell they very same player. We were downgrading, not upgrading from last season. If you get a chance to sign for a CL title holder, you don't turn that away.

What makes all that a bit awkward is of course the comments of Lukaku returning from holidays, posting those coming back etc posts. But I can guess the Chelsea option became real only very recently. I give the benefit of the doubt to Lukaku in this one.
I honestly think he was fine staying at Inter but it was Inter who wanted to sell and he got a good offer and accepted it. Helped Inter financially big time and also signed for CL holders.

Agree with this.

Because most people said that we should not have sold Hakimi as Lukaku will be sold as well after that. I believe Chelsea's offer hasnt arrived yet when we are about to sell Hakimi.
And also I swear I read it somewhere that we have to sell Hakimi before 30 June for FFP or some shit CMIIW, it means we cannot wait for Lukaku's offer from Chelsea.

My issue is,
1. Even hakimi had the decency to post something before announcing his signing with psg
2. Lukaku said he was happy at inter, happy with inzaghi, he was at home here and supported inter as a kid. He's now said he supports Chelsea as a kid and is back home

I just expected more from him and feel let down by him. He's been radio silent for 10 days whilst this goes on, wouldn't have been difficult to draft something up for the club and fans that resurrected his career let's be honest. That's all.

Tbh, couldn't care less how he does at Chelsea.

Part of me hopes he shuts up United fans, the other part of me wants him to know he'll never have it as good as he had it here.

Anyone can say he supports the team since he was a kid if he will be paid in MILLIONS :LOL:

I usually skim through any statement by players and sometimes coaches. I'm 99% sure I won't read what Rom has to say, unless it provokes some big debate here.

Not that I don't care about Lukaku, it's just those statements are usually tiring, safe, criptic platitudes.

I don't know why people still care about what players say. The age of Maldinis, Zanettis, Tottis and Puyols is almost over. It's a business and a job for many players. Even a 10 years old can learn some heartwarming lines to say to the fans. It doesnt mean much to me tbh. All I care about is them being professionals and do their job properly as the employees of their club. If they do that they earn my respect. If they don't like the likes of Naingolann, they don't earn my respect.

Thomas Tuchel: "We had the feeling it’s worth it and to try and fight hard. He’s super hungry, he did everything to take this chance and make it happen. He was a huge player at Inter with all the responsibility on his shoulders. It was actually very important that it was his desire to rejoin Chelsea and finish his project and story at Chelsea in the way he wanted".

What's Tuchel going to say? "Lukaku didn't want to come here but we made him reluctantly agree"?

"Lukaku considers this transfer acceptable but he is not particularly excited one way or the other about joining Chelsea"?

He didnt have to say Lukaku did everything to make this happen if Lukaku was forced out of the club by Suning like many implied.

lukaku wanted to play in EPL, best league in the world and in chelsea, best team in europe

but mostly wanted to earn more money

the truth


and as for lukaku he could cry a little too, not as much as messi, just a little :ROFLMAO:
