Shot memory syndrome here.

He was walking the streets of West Bromwich with his career in the gutter before he was rescued by us.
Oh please if we hadn't of taken him somebody else would of, his goal scoring at west brom was good, he probably would have done another season with them. Either way he would have been scoring goals wherever and Everton, Martinez or whoever else would not have been involved. He performed and it's his work that has paid off for him.
 
For years we have being bullied and back into agents traps and tactics for use to sell our best.

BOOM!

£100m or you stay and your goals will get us Champions League.

The feller has been our best signing for 30 years. It was doubted how wise that money was being spent at the time.

Thank goodness those in charge gambled on it as it's paid off handsomely.
 

5 headless chickens? We can open up a KFC.

'Kentucky Fried Chicken Franchise Cost / Initial Investment / Kentucky. The franchise fee to become a KFC franchise owner is$45,000, with an estimated startup costs totals ranging between $1.2 million and $2.5 million. A 5% royalty fee on gross monthly receipts is paid to the company.'
 
you couldnt have picked worse examples if you'd tried.

The fact is the prem league is currently utter [Poor language removed] in terms of quality as shown by the recent showings in the CL.

The leading scorer in the PL no longers = world class

if you are going to imply Lukaku is better than Mario Gomez dont you think he needs to prove it?

MArio Gomez has scored 278 league goals out of 490 games across 3 different leagues with a better international scoring record than Lukaku

oh and he won the Bundesliga with 2 different clubs

Mario Gomez is 32... he's got 9'years on Lukaku so I'd expect him to have achieved more. How was his record at 23 years of age? I honestly don't know but I'd be surprised if it was better than Roms record at 23.
 
Do we really want to keep him if he doesn't want to be here? Imagine ifwe keep him and he turns into the half arsed Rom that doesn't bag in 5 games. I'm all for getting a big fee for him but I think the club are playing a dangerous game asking for £100 million no doubt it'll annoy him and his snake agent.

Personally I would set a fair but high fee of £85 million and say either sign him by 1st August or he's not for sale. I want us a squad all pushing in the same direction next season not this sideshow and Barkleys contract both in the air.
I'm glad Moshiri is in charge

It was doubted because we were and in many ways still are bloody paupers. However calling the guy a success because of Martinez or us is a little on weak side, he's good because he's good, the majority of his development was done way before he came anywhere near us or Martinez. Simple fact is we pay his wages, essentially we own him while he has a contract with us and we can ask for whatever bloody amount of money we want, even if it's bloody stupid money.
