Lukaku

I would advise no one to read your post.

You mean my post which was worthy of your first post on this forum? Remember who took your virginity here: me.

And why is that, genuine Everton fans buy the season tickets because they support the overall team/club
Advising people to sit tight is plain ridiculous, I have seen far better than Lukaku leave this club and not for 1 minute did I think I am not going to get a season ticket.
If you have to contemplate getting a season ticket over the loss of 1 player, I advise you don't get one...

I'm sorry, but I would rather buy the Wigan 2012/13 season review DVD than spend hundreds of pounds to see the same thing in person in a vain attempt to prove my authenticity. In fact, I would anticipate Naismith behind Kone as being WORSE than watching Wigan, as the former isn't as good on the ball as Shaun Maloney...

According to your logic, though, it would appear that a season ticket is the hallmark of a genuine supporter, and therefore anyone without one next season isn't genuine. Forget their potential money constraints, location, etc.

Oh, and I can assure you that I won't get one should we sell an asset like Lukaku and demonstrate no intention of moving forward with investing in the squad...hence my original hypothetical comment.

If he goes, which I hope he doesn't, we'll get someone else for everyone to boo/slate/moan about their work rate. It's a vicious circle and deep down we defo all love it. Or we wouldn't bother.

I think he'll stay though

If and I don't think we will sell rom does anyone honestly think we wouldn't buy a replacement .

Eto'o has got his claws into Rom.

Tevaz contract runs out this summer, he is heading back to Argentina to play for Boca.

Lukaku to Juve might have legs.

 

[USABlue]

he's not going anywhere this summer. Even if he did go down the road we'd obviously bring in a replacement.

We need to keep him for couple of seasons yet. Get him hitting 25+ and then can demand £50m!!
He would be only 23/24 aswell.

anyone heard much of his injury?

Torn hamstring. Out for the season.

Hopefully he's being kept out of the internationals and putting club first...although I always get the impression that clubs feel honour bound to leave them out of the next game after the internationals to 'prove' they haven't been swinging the lead.

He'll be fine for Southampton match

Lukaku did cause a stir when making 'big club' transfer claims after a midweek defeat to Chelsea.
He said: "They know I’m a good player but that I want to develop so I can eventually get back to playing for a club like Chelsea.
"I don’t have a secret ambition to rejoin — there are other clubs in the world. I just want to grow as a player and eventually arrive at a top club again."

If he said this I think he's off

Only a Grade One sprain.
Typically look at around 3/4 weeks out including rehab but you often see a reduced healing time in professional athletes, so probably out for 2/3 weeks.
Echo say he might make Southampton but I suspect he'd be at 80/90% if he played.
