That's because he simply isn't very good, looks half decent in a shite league....looks average, which he is over here....not rocket science!I think Lukaku is one of those players who we see from time to time in our league. On the face of it ideally suited for the PL but for some reason it doesn't happen. Move abroad and the story is completely different.
So is Ozil so maybe be that isn't the answerTurkish heritage which perhaps explains why he isnt
Can we have the American kid, Pulisic?
He'd be an excellent false 9 for us and maybe the US would finally love us...?
Wouldn't get anywhere near our team and probably our squad. Was decent a few years ago but gone backwards.

Strange thing is that he did OK at Everton, but shite at the Swamp, then good at Inter.
Performs OK for Belgium too. On the other hand a good player is consistently good, wherever they play. That can't be said about Lukaku.

Not a fan but Lukaku was ok at Everton, turned to shit at the swamp, got better with inter and got a massive move to Chelsea. Been inconsistent and if he's said he wants out after half a season, with Chelsea challenging on all fronts still, that's a fucking terrible attitude.
Before you call him shit, he looked decent for Belgium, supplied by Kev.
Strange time for a meltdown with all to play for.

He's just not in the right system.
Remembering how he played 24 months ago just makes me think he'd slide right into this system.
Wouldn't cost a lot now and would revitalise him.
Just a thought!

Probably 2 years at the Swamp has got inside his head. They call it delusions of grandeur and once infected it's there for life.Not a fan but Lukaku was ok at Everton, turned to shit at the swamp, got better with inter and got a massive move to Chelsea.

Michael Owen is a good example of that.

He wouldn’t be coming out with this interview if Pep was his manager, and if he did he’d not kick a ball for City again

Maybe Pep can work his magic, but he's been utterly tragic in a false 9 for us, I almost felt sorry for him.

Never a good idea to upset Abramovich, concrete overcoat time or dodgy cup of coffee….
Sell Rudiger to Madrid and bring in Novichok as a replacement.Poison your front door handles ...

I agree that the way you guys play false 9 is different to the way we do it.
Grealish looked like Pulisic as a false 9, the other day, but before his indiscretion he looked superb, so it can be done under Guardiola.
Chelsea are quite static with that system where City are fluid and that's what Pulisic needs.

I'm pretty okay with selling him to you guys in all honesty. He can't be relied upon to stay fit for more than 5 minutes. I agree with you though, if anyone can make him look like a competent false 9, it's Pep. He's a pretty great LW too, if he can stay healthy.
The other day he was asked what his favourite Chelsea goal was and he said against City when Mendy and Gundogan got in each others way :)
Lumpkaku isn't very happy.
Another bullet dodged.
For all those who whinge about our recruitment process another example of someone we have done well to stay clear off when many wanted him here.
