A lot of heat on this rumour.... Apparently it has been agreed with the next manager of Chelsea (behind the scenes) that he can go out on loan next year with the proviso that he gains European experience and we have sewn the deal up already. Sounds spurious, lots of holes in it....but I want to believe it! Aspas, Lukaku and Moore sound like good options too me, with Michu in the back pocket.

He is precisely the type of CF we need/deserve - works hard, plays 1-up, pace, power, aerial threat, team player, pals with Lamah and apparently has no skeletons in the cupboard
What fabulous news if this is true. One thing though, has the next manager of Chelsea been decided yet? Surely there would have been some rumours circulating about this and I have heard nothing other than Benitez is leaving. If there has been no prospective appointment, how could there be an agreement in place? Still want to believe it though. What a difference this guy could make for us.
YES, YES, YES!!! I was talking with my boy the wekend and we both argee on one thing, (for the first time) is that we should go for Lukaku in the summer. Strong, pacey the lads got the lot. Bring it on!!!

With the uncertainty over their manager we should sneak in a purchase clause as well to any agreement
"But the Swansea manager said: "What I can say is that I am happy to hear the players you are mentioning. It's good to hear talk about those players and Swansea because the players are at a very high level. I would be feeling sorry if you mentioned names and I thought 'I don't think they are good enough to play here'. "But you are talking about one player who is the captain of a Spanish [La Liga] side and another who has scored 13 goals with West Brom this season. They are good players, and I always like to have good players." I have my reason to laugh.
