Its amazing how football works out.I seem to remember "Lukaku 28m " comments mainly by liverpool and Chelsea fans.Apparently Everton had been torn a new one by Jose and he wasnt even worth half that amount. Nevermind the fact that chelsea had bought the lad at 21m from Anderlecht.
18 months later Liverpool have bought 25 year old Benteke who honestly speaking is a one dimensional & much inferior player. Lets forget about who chelsea bought but looking at what City paid for Bony (24 m) and whatever they paid for jovetic and Negredo its really amazing how this kid developed.
He is without doubt the most physical and most difficult striker to face for defenders up and down the country, he holds it up well and assists so well but now with more goals to his game he is simply a very good forward.
Leads the Everton attack at the age of 22.its a pity his new agent is Mino Raiola. Expect him to move clubs for a huge fee at the end of this season.

It was strange in the first place, he always looked like he was going to keep improving.
He is basically a Drogba remake and he's better at this age than Drogba was.
50m+ I would say as there are so many huge clubs that could do with a player like him

Just shocking that with his goals this season Everton are not higher than they are.
If he goes through a barren patch where are the goals going to come from?

Yep, I'll admit to being one of those fans. Lukaku is proving to be well worth his fee.

Lukaku is 22 years old and guarantees 20 goals a season. He isn't injury prone and is an absolute nightmare to play against.
Worth £50m easily in today's market. If you compare him to the other CFs in world football then you can see he really is on course to be one the best.
Football isn't all about having the technique of Messi. Giroud is much more technically talented than Lukaku but Lukaku will score twice as many career goals.
Would have him at Arsenal but like I said the guy would cost a small fortune.

That's simple - we cannot defend!!!
We don't know what a clean sheet is, every time a team attacks against us they look like scoring.
We have given away most points from winning positions than any other team in the league

Probably missing Besic in the middle.
