Romelu Lukaku

[roydo]

Am I the only one who thinks the "Most important signing" debate is utterly pointless?

Rom is currently on fire. When he just shrugs defenders off like he seems to do more and more, it is just fantastic to see.

Irreplaceable, unplayable with the ball at his feet, beast of a STRIKER.

Yes, and I'm sure you comment from no place of bias at all, Belgian Toffee.

Desperate response.

Either that or you're being ironic again, in which case fair play, pretty funny.

If it isn't done by the end of the season I dont think he will.

I think you're 100% spot on. I don't want him sold but if it isn't signed by summer we really would have to look at a sale

The only nonsense I read are your posts..
You form quite a team with @Prevenger17 (although I suspect Prevenger17 of some sarcasm)

Some?

The summer spins around and the agent gets down his ear, and visits home, and major clubs circling - that will definitely succeed in getting him out of Everton.

Koeman looked irritated at the question this week regarding his contract renewal. That speaks volumes. I think the contract is being run down for sure. And who is to say what release clauses Lukaku and his agent have secured last summer?

It doesn't look great.

His goal scoring record is insane considering the teams he's been at its quite laughable comparing him with all the other strikers we've had prem era a lot of pundits still not convinced but apart from maybe 3 or 4 other strikers in Europe I'm struggling think who else I'd rather have leading the line the modern game has changed seems to be a shortage of world class true number 9s and he's still a fair bit off his prime..

what about that calf issue?

...Lukaku is a terrific goalscorer. Give him a chance and he'll generally score, put him in on goal and he's awesome. I do think, though, that he's still not the finished article. He still needs to work for the team effort in tirelessly holding the ball up and running the lines.

Amazing to think how good he could be.

I'm not sure you know what either of those words mean... as in neither word applies to the post you responded to.

Fantastic player with an incredible record.

Sniff it Independent

Spot on.

Good performance today overall though, capped off with a fantastic goal on the break, which is his bread and butter.

Superb fitness record as well, only have to glance across the park at Sturridge to see how valuable that is, especially as for almost his entire time at Everton we have barely had any backup for him.

Gutted he's gone, we could really have done with him today.

...absolutely, without tempting fate of course it's a really good point. When he sprints I'm wating for the hamstring to pop but he's incredible.
