Lukaku claims in his interview that he will be “professional” but then complains about Tuchels system. :sweatsmile::sweatsmile:

perhaps... but if there is one club where you can go at your manager with less risk due to the likelihood that the manager will soon enough be sacked, then it is Chelsea

signing Lukaku though for £97.5 million was stupid

^^^^^ Didnt they play together at Man Utd?
According to Lukaku he was reacting to Zlatans insults after having missed a chance in the game when they were down 1-0

I think Lukaku came just as Ibrahimovic left for the US

Chelsea have paid close to £100 million to sign him. He’s making waves 6 months since his arrival .
Hes destabilising his team by making these comments and probably indirectly putting pressure on Tuchel .
Its just not right, clubs are stupid to may these huge amounts and then something like this happens .

the club should have accepted those terms on the condition that the club can withhold Dembele's salary for time missed while he is injured... that way, the f*+#er will never get paid
He would end up owing Barcelona money

We can knock FSG all we like but I'm at least happy we're not getting caught out like this.

Look at what's happened to Arsenal, United, Chelsea. All got screwed from greed

Refereeing. Again.

Let's be honest. Arsenal blew that themselves but got massive help from the ref.

Give one a penalty then give both. Shocking really.

People on here have tried to talk up Salah diving but silent now?

Tug left side of players shirt , player dives to the right side , VAR reviews and awards penalty.
It's fucking madness.

Not here to talk conspiracy as I don't think this is a City thing ... but the levels of referees are so fucking bad. How can BOTH the ref on the pitch AND the guy with 2000 still takes of the foul miss that?

And not just once, but it seems every round of matches has at least 1 or 2 examples of this. It's not right.

Yeah. Should've scored that goal.

Learning process for you boys though. Young team but looking good I've got to say. City looked out of it before that 'penalty'.

The thing about the penalty ... OK ... give it. Let's say it was a penalty (it wasn't).

But, then they had to be consistent and give you yours. Don't get how they're continually missing these things.

It reminds me when we had a similar thing in the NRL. Each week the video refs would screw up a call, it would be all over the media, everyone would be watching closely and criticising every slight fuck up, the refs would get nervous and make more fuck ups.
