Romelu Lukaku

[Las7 951]

You don't seem to get it. The goals he'll make this year are not real. They're imaginary goals made in Pixieland. The hard truth is he'll still be young next year. No good playing with young players. We'll get them when they've had their moments, and then play them reminiscing the glory days of yore.

This is not laughing matter

An Everton fan reaction to Lukaku performance today :

"Bossed the game, really. His strength and pace were too much for Collins to handle, Reid did a pretty good job keeping him in check but still couldn't keep him from getting into positions.

He linked up really well with Mirallas, too- he's comfortable on the ball and seemed like he has a decent eye for a pass when it's on also. And the goal he scored was excellent- took the ball outside the 18, laid it off to the wing, got into the box and went in bravely for the header".

i've seen the entire game

his link up play was good

first touch was good

for me he was exellent

great goal

only 1 time he had to shoot faster

every one here says he's not ready is deluded

So Lukaku has got more PL goal (s) in 45 mins for Everton than our whole strike force

not surprised...

Are we going to have this discussion each time he scores?
He was sent to improve as a player, if he can score a lot and improve in the areas that needed improving then we should just be happy as it is a great sign for the things to come.

Remember his age, then remember that he will have two full seasons in good PL-clubs when he gets back. One or two bad games at the bridge and god only knows how much time on the bench that would mean, and the consequences it would have on his development.
If he gets back with great records from both WBA & Everton, it would buy him a lot more confidence and patience from the staff.

17 PL goals for wba and 1 goal for everton in 45 minutes.

but who cares. he is just 20. we should look at his age not at his play. also we have the best striker force in the world and its not biggie that they have not scored in 7 matches yet.

so as u can everything points to the fact that "HE IS NOT READY".

IT is obvious He is READY ,,,Willing and Able

Think outside the box, he wasn't going to play every game with us, he will at Everton, name me one realistic loan he could have got better than that?

Depend what you mean by ready. Ready to be a member of our squad and fighting for his place? absolutely. Ready for a #1 forward role he didn't even have at West Brom? no too sure about that one.

The current strikers sure are ready.

He MADE himself first choice for the baggies ,,,will probably do the same for the toffees ,,,IMO deserved the chance to be at least second choice for us

The difference between Lukaku and the strikers that have stayed is Lukaku needs nurturing, we need to think what's best for his career in the long haul and when a loan to Everton with a manager with a good youth record came up, then it was obvious that was the best short term solution for him.

Eto, Torres and Ba hit their peak a long while ago, they are on the way down so in the grande scheme of things it doesn't matter how good or bad they do this season, the complete opposite is with Lukaku.

I agree he deserves a place in the squad and he would have done ok this season, but we couldn't offer him the week in week out games (yet) that Martinez and Everton can.

toffees gain ...OUR LOSS

[yorkie 10]

The press is gonna love this, especially if our strike squad fails to score today

Guess what, they did

i thought when it came to lukaku we were simply supposed to say "he is not ready". infact i heard somewhere that he was thinking of changing his name to ROMELU "NOT YET READY" LUKAKU.

I agree he deserves a place in the squad and he would have done ok this season, but we couldn't offer him the week in week out games (yet) that Martinez and Everton can.

But he could've made himself first choice as he did at WBA. With those 'crosses' coming in today, he'd have looked more promising than Eto'o & Torres. Mourinho would've certainly noticed..

I guess we can't blame Lukaku for not wanting to do that in WC year though.
