True although that's also 6mths longer than Barkley had. I think others were interested in AOC including Arsenal wanting to keep him. Who other than Chelsea (including Everton) wanted Barkley?
Which is what Chelsea originally agreed for Barkley so. Maybe we should have done same with Ox and told him hold fire for 6 months so we can get you a bit cheaper
Wait until we buy Lemar for an absolutely stupid price. Then we'll be the same up front, stronger in defence for a net spend of zero once we offload some dead wood.
Lukaku is having a laugh surely, if he'd have believed the voodoo message he'd have joined Chelsea. Romelu Lukaku: Manchester United striker's 'voodoo message' led to Everton exit "Striker Romelu Lukaku decided to leave Everton after a "voodoo message" told him to join Chelsea, the Merseyside club's major shareholder has claimed. The Belgium international, 24, eventually joined Manchester United for an initial £75m last summer. Farhad Moshiri told a shareholders' meeting the player received the message "on a pilgrimage to Africa" having been set to sign a new deal at Everton. "He had a voodoo and got the message he needs to go to Chelsea," said Moshiri." http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/42630016
