Attitude toward Lukaku.
So if Lukaku does end up leaving what will be you attitude towards him? Do you think he will get booed at games?

He won't get booed. We are not Arsenal.

If he left and went to Arsenal then he may get booed.

Now we just post videos on our front page of him to try and make fun of him like little kids

It depends on how he handles leaving, If he slams the club for not giving him chances, he deserves it, However he probably won't get booed otherwise.

No he will not be booed. I think the feeling is mainly disappointment, in him and at the club.

"I'm not mad at your Romelu, I'm just disappointed."

I don't see what the club has done wrong outside of what AVB did. It's Lukaku's fault he didn't want to fight for the spot and then he complains about it on Twitter that he didn't get a chance.

Don't give a shit.

I don't think people will care really, he's never done anything for us so I don't think the fans really see him as a Chelsea player, so it wouldn't be like he let the fans down by leaving or anything, which is why most players get booed when they move.

I think that is what is most sad though. He has literally had exactly what he needs to be a Chelsea player this season so I am frustrated that he may be leaving. Right when everything starts to come together he decides to leave?

It is certainly a strange situation, nobody really knows what's going on except for those involved, but I don't think Mourinho rates him that highly otherwise he wouldn't be allowed to leave. He certainly seems more than open to a move to Everton though, so maybe it's beneficial to both parties.

I trust Mourinho but the talent is clearly there. Hopefully Lukaku does not leave.

yeah probably.

Of course he won't be booed, why would he?

I was not sure if he would which is why I asked, and clearly some fans disagree.

I think that this is more of Jose saying Bamford is the future. He can develop for the next few years while we rely on Costa up top.

Massive indifference

Horrible poisonous person.

I don't think Chelsea fans would dislike him because he has never really done anything wrong. He has been sent out on loan twice and got on with it, scoring goals and playing well for West Brom and Everton. I think the only thing Chelsea fans might be annoyed about is the negative attitude everyone seems to think he currently has about fighting for his place in the team.
Ever since we signed him I was excited to one day lead the line for us and be Drogba-like on the pitch. However, if he can't be bothered to fight for his place in the team and would rather go elsewhere that is his decision. No point in keeping him if he doesn't want to stay.
Note: I know that a lot of the issues raised by his current situation may have been created by the press but you still have to question his desire to play for us.
I feel like its such a weird situation because I feel he definitely needs to fight for his place. I mean right now he is already our number two striker and if he proves himself better then he will play. I am also frustrated with him though because he is only 21 so realistically he could not expect to be our first team starter these past two years even if our other strikers may not have been performing to standard.
Yeah I agree. I wouldn't see any harm in loaning him out for another season if he was really desperate for playing time. That could increase his value as well for next summer if he definitely wanted to leave then.
All a little to discuss as he hasn't even left yet!
Agreed. I didn't want the thread to sound like he had already left just more to see how people would feel if he did.
He has fought for his place, just out on loan. It's just another way of doing it.
I disagree. At such a young age he fought to earn a place on the first team. His performances now show he deserved a chance on the first team to see how he compares to our current squad.
Playing for Everton isn't playing for Chelsea mate. How many teams park the bus against them? They also play a different system.
Not at all. Teams play Everton differently than they play Chelsea. He didn't fight for his spot when he realized he wasn't going to get gifted the starting spot, so he requested another loan.
