Best of luck Tomas Kalas who has just joined German side Cologne on a seasons long loan. Heard he had some questions to ask at the airport as he still had a Uruguayan man in his pocket.

ose loved Drogba's attitude because he knew he was good but he didn't talk it he just walked it.

Probably a bit harder to "just walk it" when you're only allowed on Stamford Bridge as a member of an away team.

Agreed but just because he has been very good for other sides doesn't mean he should deserve a starting spot just like that with Chelsea. I rate the lad highly and think he will be an excellent striker but he will still need to fight for a spot at Chelsea. These latest Belgium lads seem to think because they get talked about in such a good light that they all deserve to play regardless.

That's non sense and something Chelsea fans started using as a defense. It's 3 seasons with Chelsea and he has done excellent job for 2 PL sides, so he expects to be given fair shot as a first team player. Diego Costa will cost you big money and for sure he will be starter. Any player would love to get extended run of games with first team to prove their worth which IMO won't be the case for Lukaku if you sign Costa.

Not every player is happy to sit on the bench and improve their bank balance.

As far as I'm concerned, player who didn't get a shot for 3 years and doesn't complain, isn't worth having anyway. That would simply mean he's only interested in collecting paycheck and banging groupies.
 
just out of interest do you think it would be justifiable should jose decide to get rid of lukaku ad courtois
 
a player like courtois has every right to speak as he has proven himself at the highest levels already and i think that if mourinho does let courtois go it would be the most stupid thing to do because where will chelsea get another courtois from... lukaku on the other hand i would say needs to be patient and wait to see what happens because this is chelsea not everton or westbrom.
 
Courtois is already better then Cech, I can't imagine he will be loaned out again. I fully expect him to be a starter.

Mourinho may not like giving youth a chance, but that's just because he has a very short term approach - he's not building for the future, he wants to win things right here and now, so he plays his best squad. If player is clearly better Mourinho won't care about their age.

Not in any way. Lukaku needs to get his shot this year and Courtois has to stay even if it means getting rid of Cech.
 
Courtois HAS to stay. He is better and younger than Cech. On far less wages as well. It's a no brainer for me. Courtois is one of those lads who doesn't shoot his mouth off but let's his performance on the pitch do the talking. Best GK in Europe last season for me. Idgaf about Lukaku tbh ... I wouldn't mind selling him if we can get someone like Manzdukic in

So what do you suggest? Should we veto the deal for Costa and make Lukaku the undisputed No.1?

Maybe you have missed few interviews where he said he won't be going back to be a back up and not playing important games and he doesn't mind leaving Chelsea.

No, that doesn't mean Lukaku shouldn't be unhappy with what's going on.
