I mean good luck to him and all that but can he really look at it and think his achievement equals Neuer's?

Bottom line for me, I'd think more of Lukaku as a player driving Everton to a Europa League spot than if he had a bit part role in Chelsea winning a major trophy.

i suppose i have a more socialist view of teh situation ha ha ha ha

at least at this moment

a team is a team is a team. i'm sure ron zeiler (never heard of him, lol) helped someone train their penalties or whatever. so just like the equipment manager (how do you say utilero) or the stretcher bearers or whatever, everyone has a role, everyone is important.

i mean, ultimately who cares. im not gonna go to the man's house and take away his medal. who the fuck am i to say "no" to him? if he enjoys it, more power to him. if it bothers him that he never actually stepped on the pitch except for warmups, then i hope he learns to enjoy it anyway.

as for lukaku, etc... it's a bit of a conceptual jump. let me go and read again
