It's gutting to hear Lukaku affectively saying he wants to leave in the summer. No fan want's to hear their players flirt with other clubs like that, it was a massive "come and get me".
But he is a Champions League quality striker who is breaking all kinds of records, one of the most sought after strikers in Europe, playing in a team that is struggling to finish in the top half.
I had hoped Moshiri's arrival would have meant that we could keep hold of Lukaku. Who know's maybe we still will do.
But the lad isn't from Liverpool, he came through the Anderlecht academy and then got a big money move the Chelsea. He has consistently scored goals in a team that has massively underperformed over the past two seasons. Pundits can't get their head around why this Everton team is doing so badly in the league, 12th, behind West Brom and level on points with Bournemouth.
The vast majority of Evertonians I know couldn't stomach another season with this idiot in charge. Season ticket holders being asked to renew after eight defeats at home and it could go up before the end of the season. You can't seriously expect a players of Rom's calibre to say "I'm up for another season of this, this has been a year of quiet progress".
And it's only March! It is two months until the end of the season and we have players coming out and saying they are off. What does that say about the fantastic Everton dressing room?
