6. Selling Romelu Lukaku Is One Of Jose Mourinhos Biggest Mistakes
With 25 goals to his name this term, Lukaku is well on the way to becoming world class - and ex-Chelsea manager Jose Mourinhos unwillingness to persist with his former charge goes down as one of his greatest mistakes. This was the day when the Belgian came back to haunt Chelsea, and there isnt a Blues fan out there whod deny that selling him on was an error of judgement. After four games of misfiring against his former club, he netted a brace against them in just 286 seconds. And in those 286 seconds, Guus Hiddinks chance of salvaging anything from a turbulent season went up in smoke. How different things could have been if they had a player like Lukaku on their books to support their title defence - Mourinho might still be in a job. To say this would solve all of their problems may be reductionist, but it doesnt take a master statistician to point out that a 25-goal haul does your season the power of good.
