I'm not so sure it's as certain as that. We can never really see what's going on behind closed doors - there might be more to this yet.

I would go with that.
We are no longer skint, supposedly, so I see no reason not to tell Lukaku he is staying.
Then sell him next year even at £20 million less.
The ball is very much in Everton's court.....if that is what the club want to do.

We don't need the money, nor can we bring 50m+ players to the club even if we wanted to the moment. Run down his contract, get two years of him more, if he refuses, fine two years with no competitive football then good to him luck moving to a CL club. . Hard ball time?

I take it you applauded Moyes after he let you know he was going to United but still kept his job.

What would the point of not playing him?
I can understand either cashing in now or letting his contract run down and actually using him for a further two years. But neither is just stupid.
He needs the full Goodison hairdryer on Saturday
No mate, I was unhappy that he was even allowed to be kept on when it was announced he was going there, actually bereft that anybody thought fit to applaud him!
So take your totally incorrect assumptions elsewhere my friend, they don't apply here.
I am failing to see the likeness between the two.
One is a manager who said he was leaving to move onto other things, the other a player under contract who has rejected a new contract as it is believed to have a clause in it which he does not want.

No he doesn't.
Whatever happens with his contract, the lad has given us 4 years service and we'll more than double our money on him. He's scored us hatfuls of goals and should be able to leave with his head held high. If he wants to play CL at this point then that's a choice he can make - assuming someone puts enough cash on the table for him in the summer.
Anyone who boos and gives him grief on Saturday is a flute.
He shouldn't kick off mid season and should shut his mouth and say what he has to say in private to Ronald.

Birds of a feather flock together
The thing is that he really should not say anything with 10 games to go. He can speak privately to the board rather than mouthpiecing with his agent who is a cart.

This is being driven by his agent, the player is just getting on with playing football.
Giving him grief at the game would be ridiculous and fortunately the vast majority of match goers will agree imo.

I thought you were overjoyed to get rid of Martinez signings? You've been quite chipper in the past IIRC.
Lukaku and Gareth Barry were great signings of his.I thought you were overjoyed to get rid of Martinez signings? You've been quite chipper in the past IIRC.
Shame he had Cleverley, McGeady and Niasse to contrast.
What is obvious in all this is far
Sounds easy but quite simply you can't do that even if you want to. A contracted player has to play a set number of games in a season if they don't they are entitled to say bye bye without a fee or compensation . The timing of this coming out is crucial as is the fact that he is 3 years into his contract.
