Romelu Lukaku

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Whenever it looks like Everton are gaining traction, something inevitably happens to halt it

We are just incredibly unfortunate. It's like an invisible layer of unlucky gunk coats us and no matter what we do we just can't wash it off

I keep hoping the tables will turn, and they never do

It just grinds you down over the years

Totally calm about this. Win Win situation for Everton

Please for the love of God explain how this is in any shape or form win win?

Totally calm about this. Win Win situation for Everton

No amount of money is going to convince another striker of that quality to come to us at this moment! Biggest window in a long time

 

[AaronTheBlue]

This media release has been coordinated this evening to pile on pressure for Everton to agree terms for a min release - which they've been pushing back against for a while.

Just my opinion, anyway.

Could easily see this being true.

Might end in a compromise of 75-80m for s release clause.

 

[Nymzee]

I'm not even arsed tbh, I've been ready for his departure for over a year now.

 

[chippy1722]

Just don't let Bill near the negotiating table when people bid for him. He said Rooney would never be sold, then said no less than £50m and he went for half. £75m and no less and stick to it.

I'm thinking that too. Strange timing to come out and say that you want to leave if ever that was his true intention.

This fella knows his stuff for sure.

Never felt right did it?

'It's 99.9% done'

'He will sign'

When will people learn?

 

[irishblue11]

gutted that it looks like he'll be leaving but not surprised. get as much as we can and move on. the only people that stay at the club forever are the fans.

 

[blue to the bone]

Not great news but we will survive. A super striker who wants to play at the very top level. We can't give him that so these thing's happen.
He fires into Europe next season, we get as much as possible for him and replace him with as high a quality a player as we can attract. Great players left before and will do again. But we will still be all Evertonians

 

[Wat Tyler]

He still has 27 months to run, we have control. Koeman saying he shouldn't spend too long at us didn't help, utter [Poor language removed] thing to say that.

 

[Jim White]

Stones last summer, Lukaku this summer. I honestly don't see the difference between now and when Kenwright was in charge.

 

[Chris78]

Lets sign a proper English forward, tired of these money grabbing foreign pansies.

I think you are joking, but if not...Gary Lineker, year after we finished second?

 

[everton2004]

I hope he gets his big money signing to ManUre, then they sack Jose and bring in Martinez.

 

[matty1878]

Release clause or not he's getting sold
Either way so just have to get on with it! I really thought he would stay and the club is on the up...
