Antonio Conte is getting the meme treatment after news broke this morning that Chelsea have lost out to Manchester United in the race to sign Romelu Lukaku.
According to the BBC, and now most other major news outlets, the Belgian striker is on his way to Old Trafford after the club agreed a £75 million fee with Everton.
Other outlets such as The Mirror were reporting that United were prepared to use Wayne Rooney, and allow him to return to Everton as a part of a deal to bring Lukaku to Old Trafford.

But the talk now is that Rooney, though still likely to end up returning to Goodison Park, will not be used directly as part of the deal to take Lukaku to Old Trafford.
Those gifs are comedy, but there are more brilliant tweets about Conte's reaction:

Conte may simply just turn his attention to Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata, if his attention wasn't there already.

The Italian signed the Spanish striker at Juventus back in 2014, but never got to manage him as he left to become the Italy coach shortly after.
Chelsea fans - would you prefer Morata to Lukaku?
