So who's replacing Lukaku then?

are you on the frigging wind up? im not steve walsh so i dont know!

 

[originalgreaserbob]

Just a pound shop @davek wannabe but without Davek's finesse

Yep, almost makes you miss the real thing. Almost.

 

[tommytowne]

We signed anyone yet today?
It's a Monday, we always sign somebody on a Monday.

You're right, you don't

You also don't know if we will sign another striker, so as of now Lukaku has been replaced with Sandro/Rooney, neither are good enough

 

[orly]

Bedding in 7/8 players at once will be sound though

Yer ma manages something similar on the regular

Can't believe people are now complaining about buying too many players, don't know how id get through a work day without reading this page

 

[Everton_Gary]

Well if it's Giroud/Rooney/Sandro we are not seeing top 4 in a million years

To be fair I don't think any of us on here will see if Everton make the top 4 in a million years. Thats quite a ways off.

 

[Abertonian]

How many in total for us and West Brom

League goals, 85 over 5 seasons which averages at 17 per season. No doubt he can score and we do need to get someone else in addition to Sandro and Rooney but we've done ok to get the money we have for a player who didnt want to be here and didn't really win us many games http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/spor...ews/would-everton-without-lukaku-you-13057410

Yeh because every player we sign will go straight into the starting XI.

Spains U21 striker and Barcelona academy product and the all time leading Man Utd and England goalscorer @ 31 years old seems like a pretty decent start to me

Pickford/Keane/Klassen and Rooney have all been bought for the first team, at the prices paid they will be straight in

 

[Pejic300]

I think your confusing me with someone who listens

*you're

 

[GeorgeK]

Yes...yes I do. Keane and Pickford are international players who had many suitors. Sandro similar. Signing on fees etc, it all adds up.

But so where McGeady and Cleverly both who came for frees so would have had to be on high wages.

I'm sure Niasse was on big money too. Signing on fees etc is the cost of doing business. Personally I'm not too angry with losing Lukaku (it was time) or with the players we have brought in (I think we have bought well).

I'm angry because it looks like once we ran out of Lukaku and extra TV money (extra 50m) we have stopped when there's still positions that are woefully covered. Our fullbacks will majorly cost us if they aren't strengthened. It's far more an issue than our forward positions. Even if Rooney doesn't do well, Sandro will take his place and I'm ok with that.

I know that's a lot of players to replace in one summer but the squad was a disaster beforehand.
