The Yak was a decent finisher, probably one of our very best in recent times . Overall I would say Lineker. It’s an attribute sorely missing in this current squad.

Pre injury, he was a beast, had amazing agility in the box, I think it was Sol Campbell who fell on his arse when one on one with him against ports mouth.

Couldn’t half hit it too, Chelsea away if Johnson didn’t duck last second his head would have gone flying.
 

Not sure how people can have Yakubu ahead of Lukaku?

Both played for us for 4 seasons and Yakubu played in better Everton sides finishing 5th, 5th, 8th, 7th.

Lukaku finished 5th, 11th, 11th, 7th with us.

Yakubu only had 1 season scoring over 10 goals. He got 15, 4, 5, 1. Lukaku hit 10+ every season for us with 15, 10, 18 and 25.

Yakubu 25 in 82 (0.30)
Lukaku 53 in 110 (0.48)

Goals scored does not necessarily make you a better finisher.
