I disagree. I don't get players who don't celebrate while scoring goals against former clubs, unless we are talking about very specific situations, like Gerrard facing Liverpool at Anfield, or Torres scoring against Atletico.

Chelsea paid 18m tor his services, but I don't see how that was not an act of charity. Lukaku was an Everton player right now and he is right to celebrate, just like Luiz was doing the right thing last season when he celebrated PSG's surviving goal while his team was down to 10 men.

Nothing wrong with what he did!

hes just proving a point that letting him go was a stupid decision - which it was?

Not at all. He is an Everton player now, it's his fourth season in Liverpool. At Chelsea he played like 10 matches as a sub. There's nothing wrong with him celebrating. He works for Everton's success.

Not really. He wouldn't start ahead of Costa hence wouldn't be on the form he is.

Fully disagree. He did not celebrate over-exuberantly at all and even if he did, I would not have a problem seeing that we continued to loan him out then sell him. If anything when Terry scored an OG, he was the only Everton player really who seemed to not join in. He just slowly walked over. I think a lot of it was disappointment because he would have scored if Terry did not hit it into his own net but still I have respect for him. He never speaks a bad word about us or Mourinho when he really has a right to imo.

Who actually cares? He can do whatever he wants to. I'd celebrate like a madman if I scored a goal like a against Chelsea. That team is out there to beat me, I'm out there to beat them. Forget the sentimentality of it all, the only people who will get upset are anally retentive people on the internet typing abuse and drunk bastards up in the stands hurling vitriol. I'd put myself, my gains and my career over any club, especially a lot of fans and most would just as quickly boo me as they would cheer me. I wouldn't insult anyone or stir shit up but I'd celebrate when good things happen to me.

I wouldn't be upset if Fabregas celebrated against Arsenal, nor would I be upset if Mata celebrated against Chelsea. I've got bigger things to worry about like scratching my arse.

He has turned in a complete striker. And he is still far for his prime. In a couple years will be an absolute beast.

IF Costa leaves then we just have to get this guy next season!

Yes, but he would have added depth to the squad and/or like Anelka used to - we could have played him out wide using his pace... I mean anything is better than Pedro, even MARIN!!!!

Massive exaggeration, Pedro's been average but Marin was like a kid who won a competition to play for Chelsea for a season.

I would say 'exaggeration' - massive - is a big too far - Pedo is diabolical!

Even Cuadrado wasworld class compared to Marin, that's how bad Marko was, I usually give players At least 6 month worth of games before writing them off but he was so so shit.

I do hope he goes on to have the best career he can have, but as far as the here and now goes, I can't say I'm unhappy that Costa's return to scoring form has coincided with a dip for Romelu after the crap that was getting spouted pre Christmas when it was the other way round.
