Because they already have 3 strikers.

And I wouldn't be so sure, not with the way they treated Kakuta and he only had 1 player and a youngster in Frei ahead of him.

I've said before kakuta isn't good enough, however, I think lukaku is and he would gobble the competition up up at Fulham but it all depends what environment we want him in...do we want him in an environment where you have to compete for a place or one where he is the best there so he has to play?

Thomas Kalas and PVA both played in Vitessse's 4-4 draw against Lokomotiv Plovdiv in the Europa League qualifiers earlier.

The latter worked for Sturridge and Wilshere, why not Lukaku? Why make it hard for him, you loan players out so they are guaranteed games. They then come back to the club to compete for places. Loaning them out for the sake of having them compete for places make the whole process rather redundant.

Did either of them score?

They are involved? Well, it is 2012 I suppose, as long as they keep it in the bedroom.

It depends what mentality you want the lad developing with...I personally feel a competitive side would bring the best out of him and really shape him up to be the next drogba! Drogbas big game attitude came from beating off the competition at the club and having that mentality of stepping up and to prove yourself on the pitch

I read on Twitter that Van Aanholt got an assist in one of the goals.

Looks like KDB is going on loan to Werder Bremen, probably part of the Marin deal, who knows.

I really wanted KDB to play here...but if he's not going to play I suppose a loan is the best option. He needs first team football at this stage of his career.

Might find it hard to break into the team over there, will have at least 4 players ahead of him. Still think it's a good loan though.

Another few going on loan too..

Ulises Davila, Milan Lalkovic and Matej Delac, are all heading out on loan.

Davila

will be joining Sabadel who are a 2nd flight Spanish club, whilst

Lalkovic

and

Delac

will be joining Vitoria Guimares top flight Portuguese club.

I always had high hopes for Lalkovic, seems to have faded off though..

Would have preferred KDB to stay and play, but..fine.

Rumour I read was that they are looking at KDB for the CAM position. Would rather he gets minutes at a deeper CM position, or on the wing. Between Mata, Hazard, and now Oscar, we seem to be pretty good on guys that can play right behind the striker.

Then again, a year spent playing at the CAM in Germany is better than one warming the bench in England...right?

In the pre-season he has been good in the middle and switching out wide with Hazard who then swaps into the middle also.

WB are saying that they'll takl about this more when he returns from the US. I hope we are smart about this, and make sure he's good to go in a position that we plan on using him in. And we need to make sure he's in a situation that we can recall him if needed.

A nice video showing PVA scoring and Kalas getting sent off.

They have Anzhi next, with Kalas set to miss the first leg. Not good news. I was hoping both of those guys would get at least half a season in the Europa League.

Not sure if it's been mentioned but Sam Walker has joined Bristol Rovers on loan.

Played well for them today considering the amount of shots he had to deal with, saved a penalty as well.

3 Chelsea players on loan in this match (Courtois , Lukaku and DeBruyne)

1 first team player (Hazard)

Only the goals .

Sam Hutchinson has joined Nottingham Forest until January. Good move I think, especially as we are close to brining in Azpilicueta it seems. Will be interesting to see if he can handle playing every week.

We must have a RB on the way otherwise we are seriously short in that area.

Good start for Lukaku. Goal against Liverpool in a 3-0 win.

These are usually pretty good recaps of the loan action from the previous week. Besides the obvious ones like Lukaku, what stuck out to me was that Ulises Davila was "the best player on the field" for his 87 minutes of action over the weekend.

Kalas and PVA both started, and played the full 90 for Vitesse today. Think Vitesse went on to win 2-0.

Think this may be where they both end up.
