Romelu Lukaku

Lol, so we're going to set a goal scoring club record in the prem, we're the highest goal scorers in 2017, we've got the leagues top scorer who may break 30 goals the first since Lineker, and it's in spite of Koeman?

Carry on mate, this is gold.

It's because we Lukaku. Lukaku is having the season of his life. And no one this last 12 months has taught him out to score more or play better.
 
Lukaku is pretty damn good. He's a striker and he scores plenty of goals.
Yes, he's a bit of a motor-mouth and if he goes, so be it. But anyone suggesting we shouldn't battle to retain him (and wouldn't miss him), needs to give their head a wobble.

Seriously do you not think lukaku has improved this season? Not just his goals but he all round play is so much better and yet you still think there is improvement to come, let's just hope it's with us.
 
The difference is we have totally geared the team towards Rom this term.

Lukau's all-round game has improved more this season - his finishing has always been excellent.

Helps as well that the team has got the fitness to keep creating chances for 90 mins and we've brought in genuine quality like Schneiderlin and Gueye rather than seeing Kone and Mcgeady occupying positions in our midfield.

Fully agree mate.

I think some of this will be people's self defence mechanisms kicking in, so they aren't too disappointed when/if he does go. I think it's fair to say it's going to be near on impossible to replace him like for like. But we will get good money for him if he goes this summer and we should be able to buy an experienced striker and an emerging prospect (similar to what we did with Rom 3 years ago). The sort of thing I would like to see is King from Bournemouth and Dembele from Celtic or something along those lines.

But first choice would definitely be Rom staying, at least for another year and preferably with him signing a new contract.

The other thing to remember, which is important at the moment due to our squad rebuilding, is Rom is classed as home grown.
