Romelu Lukaku

What part of that is false?

Saved me saying it. I had to read it twice to see if I could spot what was wrong.

i think he has his eyes firmly on that golden boot

Yes so do I but at maybe the detriment of the team that's why williams was probably having a go at him?

 

[Bebeto]

Exactly...this is way he should be drop to the bench for a few games to ensure he is not getting that golden boot...

 

[nsno-chris]

It kicked off with a falsehood: "Everton defended and broke superbly against Man Utd..." Anyone who watched that game knows at least the last part of that sentence is untrue.

Overall, it looks to me like a friendly club journo has been briefed to put the knife into Lukaku as they want to position him as a villain knowing full well now he wont be here next season.

Did you watch the game Dave, because that's exactly what happened. More finesse on the break and we would have scored 3 or 4

he was playing for himself. I ldon't think there is anything wrong with a selfish striker but the team should always come first.

But we did defend and break superbly - the problem was the conversion of the break, not the break itself. Lukaku could have had a hat trick of assists if he wasn't, you know, Lukaku.

I said it in the match thread and I said it the day after and I'll say it again. Between Ross and Lukaku, the play between them during each of our 45 million counter attacking opportunities was the absolute worst I can remember for many a year. It was Barlow/Angel levels of incompetence.

Tuesday should have seen us walk away with about a 4-1/5-1 scoreline but for whatever reason the pair of them seemed incapable of either a) picking out the correct pass and b) making the correct run

The last two games showed to me that there is Defoe life after lukaku..

fixed

We definitely broke a few times and should have had more goals

I think we're all starting to gradually accept that he might be off in the summer, which is leading people to do the usual thing of talking him down so as to soften the blow for if he leaves

Guys, it won't work, it never works, you'll still feel crap when he leaves

Just accept that he's a good player and we're going to miss him, and then the healing process can begin more quickly

That really isn't the case with me.

 

[Real_madras]

At least we'll get a big pay day out of him. Who knows, his replacement may be better? Score a good tally but also make goals for another player and actually be able to hold up the ball.

+1. He isn't going anywhere.

said it before and i will say it again lol,hes staying here for me

How can it be a superb break if it always broke down?

Lol.
