brummie Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Rumours re Chelsea offering us 25m plus Lukaku on loan for a year. Given that, were we to keep Benteke a year, and he did well, he'd be off next season anyway, if they were stupid enough to offer us that, I think I'd be tempted to take it.

LRD Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Why would they offer that when they have been quoted a straight 25m for Benteke? Given that Ba might be off, Torres being Torres, with no striker of pedigree coming in and Mourinho quotes on giving Lukaku a chance too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know that they actually have been quoted a straight 25m for Benteke. I was going by the widely reported figure in the media. 25m is a huge sum, I'll be amazed if you get more than that for him including a Lukaku loan. Pretty much a no-brainer if that happens.

leffe186 Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 I must be one of the few who thinks Lukaku > Benteke. Me too. Too early to say for definite either way, and given a free choice between the two I would probably end up tossing a coin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 This is the summer of big money, these fees are a good laugh. If Zlatan went to City, I can only imagine the numbers that'd be discussed. Fee & wages. I'm just waiting for the window to close so I can look at our transfers and pretend to be content that we've only signed Lee Bowyer.

Stifler Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Rumours Shay Given is going to Doncaster on loan. Crikey. Surely he can do better than that? 6-12 months before they went down Doncaster were only 2-3 players away from promotion. The football they played was very good and if they had have kept a few of their players instead of selling them they would have went up instead of going down. If they play to a similar way and invest wisely I wouldn't rule them out coming up within the next few years. They have a really good scouting system, they buy unheard of players who work so well and play good attacking football. I think it could actually be a good send off for Given to go there.

Stifler Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Sky sources: Tom Ince declines offer to join Cardiff City I can see why he has declined Cardiff because he could get a better club but he really does need to move on to further his career. He needs to stay clear of the likes of Man City or Chelsea who will just ruin his career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukaku imo is the more talented player, and is three years younger! I think you lot should try and get a swap deal of some sort. They'll probably then be back for Lukaku next summer at £30 million.
