Lukaku

[4737carlin]

Lukaku is right to want to win things, who wouldnt? As fans we should also want to win things, none of this coming 4th to get into the Champions League is priority nonsense, players want medals and honors, just like the fans should.

As for how good Lukaku is, my worry is it is more about how good Everton are, but how good Martinez is, he might not be as good as he thinks he is but he is still our best goal threat and a player we cant afford to lose right now. Once you start going backwards getting better replacements is a lot harder.

Obviously the Belgian press are at this every 5 minutes, wanting to move players around and quoting things, dosent just happen at Everton.

 

[Dithering Dougie]

True, but even if he increases his league ratio next season, his hold up play needs to improve dramatically.

Having one player score 15 goals won't be much help if his poor ball retention stops the rest of the team getting forward.

If he increases his goal ratio above a 1 in 2 we'll not need many other goal scorers in the team.

 

[Carlito]

If he increases his goal ratio above a 1 in 2 we'll not need many other goal scorers in the team.

Indeed. Maybe he can hit 11 next season.

Wow, the spin some newspapers have put to these comments is incredible. "I want t win trophies" = transfer request apparently.

 

[efcfanwirral]

yeah but come on its clear he wants to go.and who can blame him?

 

[Khalekan]

If Lukaku wants to win trophies and is as good as he thinks he is then he should have stayed at Chelsea and claimed the place in the starting line up he believes is his due.

4 more pages until we say Lukaku is rubbish and we should sell him.

Tubey doesnt count the UKIP voting racist.

 

[SpurtingLesbian]

Every chuffing time he goes away to play for Belgium.....

can we not just lock him in his room for the summer?

 

[Jayhow15]

This is going to be the flavour of the summer. Press are at it already.

 

[EFCPaul]

Excuse him for not wanting a career where the highlights are the odd semi-final and beating a big team at Goodison in the league when it means little. If some supporters had half the ambition that players like him have maybe our club wouldn't be in the state it's in.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

The problem for Lukaku is, the type of club he would be looking to join wouldn't be willing to pay the money we would be looking for.

 

[royalblue66]

So we have two strikers,one that doesn't want to play and one that can't , great.

 

[WarringtonBlue]

Hopefully he will come back and play like he wants to win something.

I'm not concerned by this, if anyone wants to buy him this season they'll get quoted £35m+ easily.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

good Everton are, how good Martinez is

Boss, and Boss.

 

[Moomin]

Also said he has told Martinez that he will not play on the left wing anymore.

Full interview was done 3 weeks ago with the Belgian magazine according to Belgian journalist who was on Talksport earlier.
