To be honest Prez, Think Its a drawn out story, Lukaku not Interested In Everton ,He's using this season to say we didn't make any attempt to qualify for CL, so He's off,
Would be the shock of the season If he signed contract to stay, but? he won't. we move on. cheers

Reshite Murphy thinks he should leave (no surprise there).

This is interesting though. It would be good to see stats from other seasons too.

Imagine if the BBC gave airtime to an ex-Blue recommending that Coutinho should go to a 'bigger' team. Nah, no-one could have such a vivid imagination.

Presumably we're not counted as top 6, meaning at the end of the season he'd have an extra two games to score in than the others?

That's a good point. But he's not taking penalties, while Kane is for instance, so maybe that even things out a bit.

Scored more goals then Boro this season. Very Happy

just watched the highlights on Everton TV.. why was Rom's celebration for his first goal, our equaliser at 2-2... so muted... it was like he was almost pissed off that he'd scored scratch

Seems to be about 50/50 as to whether he's going to sulk or go bananas.
I'm not sure i get it.
Have you ever seen Benteke smile after a goal?

He did celebrate more after his second goal, but I was also perplexed by his first goal celebration.

Yeah, I've noticed a lot during the season that he doesn't celebrate a lot of his goals.

apparently told koeman he will NOT be signing a new contract with us, at least it gives us time to look for replacements

if it was me i would play him until we secure euro footy , then bench him so he misses the golden boot award Very Happy

i would put a good bet on chelsea getting him

Yep, http://www.espnfc.com/story/3102798/romelu-lukaku-wont-sign-a-new-everton-contract-ronald-koeman.

Ibra on the bench against Chelsea. Rooney not starting nor on the bench - surely he'll be gone in the summer.

Koeman tells Lukaku Man United are shit and he should stay with us if he wants CL footie

almost word for word....

Everton striker Romelu Lukaku could reject a return to Chelsea and sign for Manchester United because the 23-year-old Belgium international is concerned about how he will fit in with manager Antonio Conte's tactics.

Manchester United are ready to scupper Chelsea's attempts to re-sign Lukaku by making an £85m bid for the striker. (Daily Star)

I'd drive him there myself etc etc.

Real Madrid's Alvaro Morata is Conte's first choice as striker, but some of the hierarchy would prefer to investigate bringing Romelu Lukaku back to the club from Everton. With the Goodison Park board unwilling to sell Lukaku for anything less than £75m and Morata not currently getting regular football at the Bernabeu, a deal for the Spanish striker is likelier to be easier to do.

Everton will let Romelu Lukaku leave this summer but only if 'certain clubs' come calling, agent claims
