They had to do something. Jorginho was the top scorer in the league last season with 7 goals.

Who else was available?
would have gone for one of those random ligue 1 strikers for way less than half the price. Ben Yedder for example is much better against parked bus teams than Lukaku. Hell, even Memphis(he's not a striker but still better against parked buss teams) for $20 mill is better than Lukaku for $70 mill.

Memphis was a free.

I think it's obvious Lukaku was a Marina signing especially after what happened when he wanted Chelsea under Conte but Fat Waiter got him to United. Which soured his relationship with Waiter and Chelsea with Waiter also.

Chelsea need to overhaul the scouting department. It's been a joke for years.

Sources: Chelsea drop Lukaku, future in doubt


When asked on Friday how to get the best out of Lukaku, Tuchel replied: "Training, training, playing. Training, playing, training, sleeping, eating good, training, playing, sleeping, eating good, drink a lot of water, sleep, train and don't give interviews."

:dead:

He's already ignored that now
