If he moves this summer I very much doubt it will be for Arsenal, unless they get a new manager. I can't see Wenger paying what he considers extortionate amounts for a 20 year old winger, even though the price is well, well worth it in this case.
Romelu Lukaku

How long before 'The New Drogba' gets wheeled out?
Ah, not long it seems
Ah, not long it seems
Let's hope he tanks ... He most likely won't but let's hope ...

They were always going to buy a striker. Drogba's old, anelka's in his last year of his contract, sturridge is untested for them, and Torres is the new Shevchenko.

This is true - but couldn't they have bought someone who isn't rated amongst the best young striking talents in the world?

From what Ive seen I think he will end up being a massive success for them but probably not for another 12-18 months, he isnt exactly Drogba Mk II in that Drogba is often described as a battering ram but he is actually quick skillful and has great technique. Lukaku looks more like a Carroll style battering ram without the finesse of Drogba, they currently dont have any decent supply from out wide so Im assuming he will have to bide his time for Villa Boas to replace the old guard (Anelka,Drogba,Lampard,Malouda) before he can really stop into the spot light, for €22m I think they have gotten a good deal
The fans?!?!
You're moving to the wrong club son.

There are always young players rated as the next best striker / defender / midfielder / keeper and what have you ...... most of them disappear into obscurity (playing for Newcastle).
