Like I said, Emenalo convinced Roman that Lukaku was the best option and they overruled Conte. Check out the many, many links showing Emenalo and Lukaku cosying up and reports of Conte being pissed that the club would not listen to his advice as manager. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...ef-Michael-Emenalo-spotted-Romelu-Lukaku.html http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/romelu-lukaku-spotted-deep-conversation-10335371 http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/fo...-Belotti-transfer-news-gossip-Michael-Emenalo http://metro.co.uk/2017/03/30/anton...over-romelu-lukaku-and-alvaro-morata-6542279/ http://www.101greatgoals.com/news/romelu-lukaku-man-united-shows-chelseas-100-support-antonio-conte/ I know the red tops and rags are not always to be believed, in fact hardly ever when it comes to football, but it was reported every where.
Why bid if Lukaku had already decided to join United? Why bid when they knew they were going to be snubbed? Your links are laughable as "evidence". Because Emenalo was seen with the player you take that to mean that it was his preferred signing? Managers don't follow players around the world asking them to sign for their club. Mourinho doesn't do that for United, Woodward the Clown does. The Star link says Conte wanted Belotti yet according to other "evidence" supposedly Morata was Conte's first choice?! Which rag was right?!
That's a standard tactic often employed by Arsenal. Closely followed when the window closes with "yeah but we tried". They've made the rookie mistake of matching the other offer though... Normally the bid should be at least 10% lower than the other just to make doubley sure it gets rejected.
Do you really need me to answer that? Dont be silly. Placation. So you just ignored all the links about Conte being pissed etc etc and just looked at the top ones? All the links are laughable, yet the word of some twat (that's you btw) on a football forum, and your 1+1=9 conclusions are legit? Yes one link said Belotti......Oh my god! That must completely invalidate the rest of my point!
Yup. There was no way the Lukaku bid was going to bear fruit at that stage. He had been staying with and training with Pogba for days, and they had uploaded videos of themselves on Instagram with their tongues up each others arses at that point!
Placation for what? The fans have since insisted that he's **** and not a player they would have wanted whilst the club insist that Morata was their number one target. Who were they trying to placate? Just you? The links are laughable as I can find contradictory ones that I could equally insist were accurate. You've included links that contradict each other as to who Chelsea's number one target was, Belotti or Morata. Some twat (that's you btw) on a football forum having a hissy because his club was snubbed doesn't make his 1+1=9 conclusions legit. Indeed it does unless you're saying that it's the one article that was inaccurate whilst the others were all spot on. If so, why post it? Why bid?
A lot of fans probably wanted Lukaku. I did. Not the half a dozen or so fans on Not606 though mate, I can only speak for them. All Chelsea fans worldwide are not psychically linked. lol There is a lot of evidence that backs up what I am saying, but zero evidence to back up what you saying, yet you will poo poo any sources I link and just claim yours is correct because its fits your bullshit narrative in your head...... Have fun
Tbf, the fans will always have opinions that differ to the manager, but the manager's team is the on that plays. Don't suppose United fans always agreed with Fergie, but he did alright didn't he? Conte definitely in Stan.
Antonio Conte tells Chelsea to sign Romelu Lukaku at any price - even £100m https://www.google.co.uk/amp/www.te...ls-chelsea-sign-romelu-lukaku-price-even/amp/
More zero "evidence" MORE MONEY, NO PROBLEM Antonio Conte tells Chelsea he wants to sign Romelu Lukaku this summer even if it costs them £100m https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www....u-this-summer-even-if-it-costs-them-100m/amp/
Romelu Lukaku to Chelsea almost done: Antonio Conte wants another four players - report https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www....elu-Lukaku-Antonio-Conte-Tiemoue-Bakayoko/amp
Ok thats one link. One that valued Lukaku at £100m too Here is a link where the same paper claims its all Emenalo's doing...... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football...director-michael-emenalo-animated-discussion/ They contradicted themselves.
So lets agree the rags havent a ****ing clue what they are on about and contradict each other to ****ery. Still not sure how my links are laughable, yet yours arent when you just linked the Sun, though
