Romelu Lukaku

lol

Apologies.

Will cry if Funes Mori is still our centre half next season

I've heard Ron is going to 'Ian Marshall" him and stick him up front next year.

 

[ijjysmith]

He's not good enough. Has he scored 20 league goals for Celtic?

Initial thought only mate. I can't work out what level of player we could get currently.

We can't allow ourselves to be in a position where he is heading into the last year of his contract without an extension so we will have to sell in the summer. It would be a monumental disaster otherwise, financially.

I think he is worth more than £60m when Raheem Sterling cost City £50m but I don't think we would get much more, if anything at all, under the circumstances.

I expect plenty of suitors for him and if we get good cash, then whilst it's a shame, clubs with far more to offer than us currently have also had to heed to the inevitable in selling their stars.

Four good years from him and hopefully double our money and more, I'll take that with thanks.

Hopefully it could be done early in the summer as dragging it out would be severely disruptive. That may also cause us to be willing to accept £10m or less than we might get for him if circumstances were more in our favour.

It would still be very decent of him to sign an extension and leave anyway, but this is football and he is little more than a employee.

Will be supremely difficult to replace his goals. Not jumping on the bandwagon but I find it difficult to like him personally and see him as a blue, it only ever seemed he was on a long term loan here, and I won't miss the speculation when he leaves.

Huge challenge for Moshiri and co. Can't attach any blame to them but a huge test for the club in maximising his value and reinvesting wisely. I worry that this will dictate the whole summer and we will be in reactive mode yet again.

He's scored in the Champions League, that's for sure

 

[BlueShark]

Disappointing but not surprising.

This isn't just an Everton issue. It happens to just about every other club.

Player contracts mean nothing in terms of loyalty, they just mean the selling club can get more money when the inevitable sale happens.

Dembele and Mertens

Dembele, Tierney, Forster and Virgil..

Koff Rom.

 

[MikeH72]

Remember that time we went about 10 years without a striker hitting double figures?

 

[Albertini78]

How is Lukaku only worth 20 million more than Martial?

Thats why I put £20m+ (anything above really) didn't Utd pay a large sum for Martial and hes only 21

 

[bullybeef]

Niasse lad, Niasse

Stranger things have happened.
Niasse may not be technically good but he knows where the onion bag is.

Can you imagine the scenes.

 

[marsh]

Just win all of our remaining games and finish top 4 and make him stay

 

[AdaBrummieblue]

seeing Funes Mori try and mark him next season

Ugh. This just got worse...

 

[bullybeef]

Remember that time we went about 10 years without a striker hitting double figures?

That won't happen.

 

[ijjysmith]

Is he honestly getting in the team at Juve? Over Higuain and Dybala? To me it is only PSG and the way Emery tries to press will make it tough for him

Reckon Dybala might go to Madrid or Barca in the summer.

But yeah always felt PSG. Easy league that he will own. They're minted. And gets his Champions League ever single year. Makes most sense.

Why do our fans go from A to Z
In an instant lol Jesus man!

I've said this for a while mate, I believe Moshiri is a utter fraud taking us all for a ride
