Popular Post! Las7 951 Posted July 30, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted July 30, 2014 I mentioned this last summer but didn't want to believe it. Still I don't feel as bad about Lukaku as I did with the Sturridge fiasco because simply I don't rate him as highly. I still think he should have been our #1 striker last season and if he was around we might have won the League. At least we now have Costa and not Eto'o/Ba/TorresExpect us to use the money and buy an English/Homegrown striker nowI don't have hard feeling for Lukaku, I think it's best for him to play regularly even if its with a team like Everton which is obviously a step down. Best of luck Romelu didierforever, burrogol, Toli and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stroey 2,525 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 And Spanish boss Martinez believes that the forward will develop into one of the best strikers in world football at Goodison Park.He told reporters: "Romelu was our number one target. It had to be a record fee transfer. He is worth every penny."Rom will never say it but his target should be to become one of the best world-class strikers."It's a very significant day in the history of our club, it's every Evertonian's wish to sign Rom, and this is a footballing statement of what we want to do."Lukaku finished as Everton's top scorer while on loan last season, netting 15 times for the Toffees. burrogol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! TorontoChelsea 4,064 Posted July 30, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted July 30, 2014 Thing is, we don't even need to spend much anymore. The spine for the team is already done and we can just get a luxury signing here or there if the right players become available. No need to spend just for the sake of spending.We need another striker. Anything else is luxury but going into the season with Drogba and Torres primed to play major minutes is extremely weak and in the case of a Costa injury or failure to adapt, we have no chance of winning anything. Not upset about the transfer particularly because the fee is very good although I don't think it's bad for Everton either (like I think the Luiz fee was ridiculous for PSG). They get a 21 YO striker who scored 15 goals for them, fits their system, and is likely to improve. I wouldn't be surprised if he scores 20 for them this year and scores in the 15-20 range for another decade in the league. I don't think he's a superstar by any means, but it is extremely rare to find strikers this young being this successful so yes, there is a lot of value in that. If we can go get another striker, I will be fine with this, If not, I won't be. Amblève., Barbara, seanptmiller and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,916 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Whilst we're all happy with the fee right now, it's almost cancelled out by these 3 things:1) Torres stays2) He could very well take points off of us this season3) If he has a great couple of seasons there one of our rivals like United or City could buy himThe one thing that can make up for these things is if we make one last big name signing. sdrcfc and zolayes 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James just cost Real over 70m, that's almost 2x what we paid for Hazard. 35m are not what they used to be anymore. kobematabryant, TorontoChelsea and MrBlueGuy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Las7 951 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 We need to buy another striker and he needs to count as "home grown" otherwise keep Bamford and have him be Drogba deputy. Torres shouldn't even be in the squad, just have him train with the reserves if he doesn't want to leave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmax 9,219 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 It is when every new season we buy a new forward. Like it doesn't matter you score 30 goals in 2 seasonsHis WBA goals did earn him chances, but he shat himself when we signed a 32 year old from Russia. This year he would gave got plenty of opportunities as Costa's backup but Mourino had probably made up his mind on both - his talent and his temperament and decided he didn't fancy having a quitter around the group in what will be a massively important season ahead.

burrogol 16 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 "Welcome home". Cringeworthy stuff but it's the kind of stuff you expect from them Scousers. I officially hate Lukaku now. Besides the fee, he's done nothing all for us but cause our club and most especially our fans grief with his moronic behaviour. I hope we boo the shit out of him when he comes to The Bridge.What has he done wrong to your club? (But prove two years in a row he was better than the other money loving 'hookers' you employ in your pimping 'football club'?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
