The cut in Romelu Lukaku's heel hasn't healed completely. It got stitched up after Espanyol. Only reason why he didn't play today. #EFC

Yeah OK mate.

Come and join us Lukaku! I'll welcome you bruv with open arms!

^ please don't LOL. I keep hoping we're going to decide on an alternative, but it seem less and less unlikely. Namely because, there's no world class strikers available right now. Lukaku, on paper, is almost the perfect striker for any club. Over 50 Prem League goals by 23 is no small feat (only 5 players to have done so). But he doesn't bring enough imo. 

If Conte has a master plan, I'm all for it. But he won't be around long enough to see that, so I really wonder how much Lukaku can really progress at Chelsea before he starts to regress.

I heard Icardi is supposed to be our plan B if we don't get Lukaku...

I know who I would choose.

I wouldn't even have Lukaku as plan D.

Icardi is that one transfer rumour that writes itself now, replacing the Cavani and Falcao pre-Monaco and many others that we always get connected with. Except Icardi is also always 'going; to Arsenal and Juve too, so meh.

I'll believe it when I see it

I'm still dissapointed that we are spending big money on this donkey.

Lets hope this donkey gives peeps a mule kick up their arses to prove ya wrong.

And lets hope from the day he puts Chelsea blue on you open your mind and shout the lad on and wait till he actually does summet wrong till you start slagging him off again.

I was giving Torres tons of shit before he joined us then as soon as he put a shirt on I was behind him all the way. And tho the guy had some fantastic spells for us it didn't make me any happier to be proven right that he really was a donkey!

[BlueLyon 9,359]

IMO he is like Fabregas. Hides when he realy needs to lead the line.

Wouldnt be best investment of cash as right now I would pay those 60m for top defender or midfielder, but he does score goals and is young. We will see. 

[Special Juan 27,439]

They celebrated the Stones saga because he stayed, he didn't want to stay, he wanted away and then played shit for months. Lesson right there Everton fans, keeping an UN happy player does not work.

I listened to Koeman again at the weekend, he's give up on the whole situation just watch his body language and listen to his words.

Remy is apparently now in France.....Loan to Lyon....we have a striker spot free

Yeah this is why lukaku is coming. Thus we will spend stupid money on a player that is not worth that much. 

Makes the pogba deal look like a bargain.....

Forget Lukaku. Let's get Lacazette in. Please.

Can't see it TBH. I think we will offer the huge 65-70M and get this done. I also think Costa will go next summer and this is us preparing for that.

[petre.ispirescu 4,928]

Batshuayi the only back-up striker and Zouma, who is not even fit to play and Aina the only two back-up defenders. Clearly there is a striker coming these days and at least one defender. Let's see if it's Lukaku and Koulibaly, or another Djilobodji and Baba Rahman. Although it would be pretty stupid to loan some squad players just to buy some other squad players. 

[Special Juan 27,439]

Everton just confirmed Bolasie.

Lukaku will take his number back that was given to Remy.

And with Cashleys number 3 free its going to the man mountain K2!

[Tautvix 1,321]

Doesn't say anything anyway. Even if we have free spot for No 9.

[xPetrCechx 13,563]

And neither is Koulibaly expected to be #Chelsea’s final big signing, with the club still in the market for another striker. [Telegraph]

There’s a growing sense that #Chelsea will, finally, test Everton’s resolve to hold onto Romelu Lukaku before the window closes. [Telegraph]

#Chelsea will keep Diego Costa, but want another striker despite having spent £33million on another Belgian, Michy Batshuayi. [Telegraph]

[Special Juan 27,439]

2pm PC for Koeman today, wonder if Lukaku is still injured
