Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 I reckon Lukaku would fucking love it at the toon like. Proper party atmosphere for him (as long as we're winning, obviously). I'd want him to bring all his family over n'all as they'd be mega in the crowd (I'm guessing that's his family celebrating in the various vids online) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Think he'll stay in Belgium for a couple more years and move to England or Spain when he's good enough to be first choice at a top club. Not really much of a point in having a step in between. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His home country at the end of the day ... Don't forget Anderlecht are currently top of their league, and look set to be in the Champions League next season. I don't think we have anything that can compete with that, for the time being. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBG Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 I saw that before, didn't think it was worth posting up. Lukaku man, would make Carroll look like Peter crouch. Just checked him out on a well-known video-clip site. Bloody hell. Got a link mate couldn't find him on redtube. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Playing every week in the Premiership rather than the Belgian league with a few Champions League games thrown in would be better for his development, I'd imagine. As others have said though, there'll be several better clubs who'll want him if he does leave so absolutely fuck all chance of it happening. Mike Ashley is our chairman, also.

LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 http://www.metro.co.uk/sport/football/860270-romelu-lukaku-spurs-move-to-be-hijacked-by-newcastle-in-crouch-deal#ixzz1IsRWiZqh Romelu Lukaku Spurs move 'to be hijacked by Newcastle' in Crouch deal Newcastle United are believed to be preparing a £19.2million swoop for Anderlecht star Romelu Lukaku with Spurs also keen as Peter Crouch's future remains unclear at White Hart Lane after his Champions League sending-off. Newcastle scouts, including manager Alan Pardew, are believed to have been interested in 17-year-old Belgium international Lukaku for some time, but were reluctant to invest in youth so soon after being promoted back into the Premier League. But with the sale of Andy Carrol to Liverpool and an aging stock, Lukaku's presence could inject flair back upfront at St. James' Park. Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp had signaled interest in Lukaku, who stands at 6ft 3in, however a price-tag of £26million in January had deterred any further negotiations. While Spurs and Newcastle weigh up their options, out of favour Peter Crouch could be used as trade-bait in either deal. With high wage demands a key factor, a likely scenario could see Crouch move to Newcastle to free up room at Tottenham for Lukaku's arrival. The England international has in the past said he enjoys playing on Tyneside and a mutual respect from both player and club could pave the way for a deal. 'Whenever I have played Newcastle I have always enjoyed the occasion,' Crouch was quoted as saying. 'When they were relegated it was disappointing for the whole league.' A likely scenario? More like utter bollocks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

madras Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 I really don't want Lukaku as mental as that sounds. I just don't think he's going to be as good as proclaimed. i think he will but he's going to need time and right now we can't afford that sort of money especially on someone who'll not hit it from the off. i've watched a lot of him and chelsea and a year working with drogba (should he stay next season) would be perfect for him.

TRC Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 I'd rather not rely on a 17 year old as our main man like. Quite a bit of pressure for a young lad to come to a foreign country and play infront of 52k. Maybe he could handle it, but think we could get a cheaper sure thing.
