Romelu Lukaku

[Tubey]

lol What does that even mean? If him and his fellow savant Barkley had an ounce of savvy between them, Everton would have scored three or four at Old Trafford.

He's a ruthless finisher who has had the season of his life. Personally I think that he's going to be overlooked by the big clubs again this summer, but then stranger things have happened.

He's someone who can spot space on the shoulder of the last man and bully his way on to it. His acceleration is frightening too. He often literally forces a back line to defend deep against him, because you can't mark him tight with a high line as he often just effortlessly brushes defenders off and is away.

His problem is that he is one-track minded. If he's through, he's shooting. But a lot of those chances at Old Trafford wouldn't have been there to waste if he hadn't made them.

Like you, I expect no club to come up with the money needed for him, as he isn't value for it. But he does have very obvious merits to his game - he's the perfect striker for a club who counter-attacks; I don't see how that can be disputed.

He is particularly dangerous if left one on one with a physically inferior defender in a wide-open space. I don't think I'd say his work was that of a genius, though.

Let them laugh, mate.

Watford at home is coming.

Puts a tenner aside to stick on Cleverley.

Little Carl who is on your replacement list for the big Belgian in the summer?

 

[Kev The Rat]

Reminds me of Latchford in that he's effective, but at the same time limited. And both flat track bully's to boot.

They can't wait to turn on our top scorer can they? Oh and the leagues top scorer..

I don't think that Koeman would regret spending big on Martial and Benteke. You never know what him and Walsh are thinking, though.

 

[ilikecheese]

Why is he so bad at winning aerial battles on long balls? It's like his depth perception is off by two yards.

Have to confess that I wouldn't mind Benteke either. Not a popular shout mind.

Martial is defo worth a shout.

one of the biggest fanbases in the world lol aren't you a proper comedian lol

LOL, go have a look at the top 10 of most shirts sold and then we can talk

You are new money mate. You and City. I remember you and them bouncing around the lower leagues and I'm 38, I went to your ground years ago and it was like a tin shed, you're not a big club - you're a rich little club. Just like City. Thing is I quite like Chelsea, more than the other cockerney teams anyway.

Costa and Hazard will go to wherever offers the most money, plus Real Madrid have pedigree and History which is something Chelsea haven't got.

They do have pedigree, but we can cover whatever money they offer, and Hazard is very much a family man, so being settled in one place is very important for him, and by the looks of it, he is very happy and London and Chelsea, who BTW, have just kicked spurs ass, yet again when it mattered, this is a team of [Poor language removed] champions, we step up when it matters, thats why he is going to stay, because we win.

 

[lucashmoura9]

We have some really good fans of other teams on here, you're not one of them, koff back to the shed end or whatever it's called.

i am merely defending my club, i have said absolutely nothing wrong about Chelsea, or negative about Everton in here, and yet, everybody here insist on attacking me, simply due to the fact that i support Chelsea, but you know what, it must suck watching us win trophy season after season, so i can understand the hate.
Cheers, "great" Everton fan
