Reading a few reports to day that Lukaku is wanted on loan to Fulham next season. I didn't think too much of it at first as I thought it was just a rumour, but looking on his twitter account, he said this to Kerim Frei (Fulham player):
@R_Lukaku
@KerimFrei21 kerim send me your number DM we need to talk quicklyyyy!!!!
That was sent to him 2 days ago, so this could mean that there is a real interest in Fulham taking him on loan and that there would be a good chance in him getting game time, with Dempsey seemingly looking like leaving as well as Rodallega and Petric their other striking options, Lukaku should have a better chance in getting regular games for them than here.

I'd keep him personally. If Drogba had accepted the one year extension, then fair enough. But with each new technical figurehead coming through the door, you sense the more Lukaku's position in the team strengthens as being the stand out alternative. He's not shred off enough of that physique the last 12 months to still not stand out in that regard.
McEachran is the one who needs the loan. And he needs to start making an impact sooner rather than later.

Good loan. Loca area and he should start ahead of Rodalegga and Petric. I'd make it a 6 month loan though so we can recall him if he isn't doing well, and extend it if he is
