Just a thought, but should Albion approach Chelsea and say we will waver any fee for Izzy Brown, to get get Lukaku on loan next season, and get first choice on a loan deal for any players allowed out on loan the season after?

Do you not think then that Chelsea will not try and move Torres and Ba on and not replace them with better? Which IMO could push Lukaku down the pecking order, and he is desperate for first team football with the World Cup looming? I think Lukaku is superb, potentially could be as good or better than Drogba, so would be a shame if he gets knocked down the pecking order at Chelsea. It would probably do his development a big helping hand.

have to disagree with you there, weall8villa.
Izzy Brown doesn't have that much pulling power to negotiate that.

Most of my arguement is based on that I don't think Lukaku will start more than 10 premiership games for Chelsea next season, so surely for his progression he needs game time. So where better to flourish than with us!

People need to move on from Lukaku.

JH, people are entitled to talk about what they want.
By the way, what happened to Bony and Kone?

Who said they can't aries?
Bony and Kone? Sure you can find out if you look hard enough.

JH, look at your advice to weall8villa, about people needing to move on from Lukaku. Lukaku's future for next season hasn't been decided by any stretch despite what he and Mourinho have said, and weall8villa's speculation about him is as valid as yours about Bony and Kone was.

At no point though, did I tell Weall8, what he can and can't talk about.
Mourinho has now come out on at least 2 occasions and said Lukaku (and De Bruyne) are in his plans for the coming season.
Please remove yourself from that 'high horse'.

You pretty much did pal! I like Lukaku, just worry he will be benched for most of next season, when he could be flourishing and improving his overall game by going out on loan for one more year.
Tbh though, I know he won't be back, just think it would make sense to both clubs! They will no doubt sign someone for mega money, which will probably push him to third or fourth choice with one up top most games. Could see him playing mostly carling cup & FA cup games.
