Difference is China is so many times bigger than Norway, even had more money pumped into their league and infrastructure than Norway and still can't produce at least 1 talent. Like I previously said you name me 1 Chinese player that plays regularly in a top league, there are none.
Only one fits the narrative, Sun Jihai. He's the only Chinese player so far who've made over 100 appearances in a top European league: 130 premier league apps for Man City from 2001 to 2008.

When was the last time China even competed in the world cup? they're utter dog shit players, like name 1 chinese player that plays regularly in any of the top 4 or 5 leagues in the world and you won't find one, that's how bad they are. Even former Guangzou evergrande forward Elkeson renamed himself as Ai Kesen changed his nationality from Brazilian to Chinese and is 34 years old and still plays in China.
Thanks for the explanation.

I just remembered that back in the days someone here called you Abraham Badass Lu Zer Devilowitz. I think that was funny.

If Lukaku wasn't set on his last payday and wasn't such an injury prone and inconsistent guy the last 2 seasons, he'd be worth more. but unless he's willing to shed either the wage demands or contract length, the risk of being stuck with a washed up player on a long, high wage contract is too large for him to be worth serious amount. I'd say 5-10m for a transfer fee sounds about right, even if he also has potential to be an elite scorer in the league.

I'd trade Milk for Lukaku in a heartbeat
that's how we wound up with Pogba
