The fact that he didn't even know about the bid and yes while he knows about Belgian players he's not exactly got the inside scoop on transfers.

Knowing what sort of price tag Everton put on Lukaku isn't really "transfer scoop" It won't be a huge secret and would of put on him before the end of last season. 

Like i said many others have reported a while ago that they will ask for £60+

Please no.

I would love to hear what the other suggestions are outside of Morata since so many here are so staunchly against a homegrown 23 yr old striker who has scored tons in this competition... And if I hear the name Gabigol I will fucking scream.

Rather the club sign nobody than spend 60m on Lukaku.

Like who? Bleacher Report? Who claimed we pulled out because of the 75m price tag? So how did we make this €60m bid then?

Why not use Pedro as one of the second-striker options? Pedro is more of a wide-forward anyway, and it doesn't look like he's going to be able to provide Conte with what he wants from his wingers (genuine width and some physical robustness). Pedro's main attributes are his attacking movement and finishing ability. Costa paired with one of Pedro/Batshuayi could work, particularly with Traore being an additional option as a sub.

Okay Diego wants a known psychopath who Conte purposefully left off of team Italy.

I would bet good money he will be used in this fashion. I said earlier I think Pedro, Hazard, Cheek and Traore will be used as secondary strikers.

I can't remember for sure, it was a while ago. It defo wasn't BR (i don't follow them) It was more than one paper/person reporting it.

Why do you find it so hard to believe everton want £60+, have you forgotten the Stones bullshit last year?

[Tautvix 1,321]

Costa is probably out if we pay insane money for Lukaku or Morata.

Why do you think this??

[King11Didier 916]

Better spend this money on CB. Bonucci or Koulibaly. No way Lukaku to worth 60mln.... And give this silly money to Everton who fu*ked up Stone's move to SB and now he will go to citieh..

No its not that I have a hard time believing it, its I have a hard time believing the source. They could very well want 80m I just doubt a known wantaway will ever fetch them what they actually want.

If Pedro is used as a second striker, then I don't see the need for the big-money purchase of a striker... unless Costa is going to leave. Costa (PL-proven high-level goal-scorer), Pedro (hugely experienced and technical, with good finishing), Batshuayi (all-round prospect with huge potential), Traore (similar to Batshuayi, but at an earlier stage of development) appear to cover most of our needs up front; and yeah, you could maybe even add Hazard to that list as well.....
