Romelu Lukaku

Not yet he isn't wish him all the best & hope he becomes world class as ultimately he was always better than us but came anyway & largely played his heart out but not world class for me

Could you remove those quotes in your earlier post please until you provide evidence to back them up, otherwise other posters will likely take them as gospel.
 
He's had a generally storming season, i'm not going to put his head on the chopping block after today. You can tell he's frustrated and desperate for some support in attack, too many players just pumping the ball forward expecting him to take on an entire defense all by himself.
 
when he finds a team he cares about he'll be one hell of a player, i love the lad but we're not stepping stone fc. bad day at the office today, cost us massively - i hope we replace him with two players of his quality in the summer
 
If he had scored against Wham we would have won the game, same today i think with the momentum.

Apparently Baines refused to take penalties which is why lukaku is taking them.
 

Imagine if Everton get £40m for this can crusher.

He'll be in Turkey by the time he's 25. Usain Vault and his mates can quote me on it.
 
So poor today. Could easily score hattrick even he does not help team to defend and is incredibly lazy for a player of his atheltic ability. Not too sure if wall does not have a better first touch than him sometimes. If 65m offers are reality, we should really think about these.

When asked who he considered Everton’s first-choice penalty taker, Baines replied: “Rom.

“When Rom signed permanently I said then, if he wanted them, ‘no problem’.

“It was just about getting him scoring when we re-signed him.

“So I said ‘whenever you’re ready, just tell me’ because, again, I’m thinking of him as a player.

Romelu Lukaku scores his second penalty of the week ... after asking Leighton Baines for permission!


“Strikers live off goals and look at their records and if he’s scoring penalties, and his record is looking good, then his confidence is good and you’ll probably get other goals on the back of that.

“It can work the other way if they don’t go in, but if he gets the goals through that and the confidence...

“If he scores a penalty after 20 minutes, then he’s up and you might get other goals from that.”

Baines added: “So it’s partly that and, from the club’s point of view, he’s an asset.

“We’ve paid a lot of money for him, he’s a young striker who is going to be judged on his goals, not your left-back.

Baines again acting like the manager then. Should be marrinez decision.
