Oh sorry - Words to that effect, then.

Obviously koeman doesn't have enough faith in his own abilities, nor in the club. We're so grateful to have him, though.

Shocking how some people can't handle a bit of honesty.

Narcissism to the extreme. Did mummy tell you all how special you are every night before you soiled yourself in your sleep?

i don't think we should be grateful to have him. i'm not saying anything to that effect.

I'm saying there's nothing wrong with telling it how it is. He's acknowledged that if Rom ever wants to fulfil his full potential, he will be playing for a Barca, Real etc further down the line.

"Everton is not the end for Lukaku"

No, course he hasn't mate...

"Romelu will not have made the most of his career if he plays for Everton for the remainder of his career. He has the potential to play for a bigger club than Everton"

Imagine the fume among the Kopites happen Brent had said that about Suarez.

On certain occasions one has to tip one's hat to them.

That is a deplorable statement from Koeman.

I'm sure he does want the best for the club, even if that is only to better his own career.

He hasn't said Lukaku is leaving. He's said that if Rom fulfills his potential he'll be playing for the big clubs (as in Barca, Real etc)

He said lukaku has more potential than Everton .... so much for nobody is bigger than the club.

The lad is 23...

So then, what's mcdonald's plan for Everton? Doesn't expect us to be competitive, obvs.

I don't think he expects us to be competitive with Barca and Real by the time Rom should be hitting his prime, so in about 5 years...

Lukaku isn't bigger than the club. But, he has the potential to play for the best sides in world football.

I was agreeing with you.

The only reason he is here is because we offered him big money. He shat all over Southampton and will do the same to us.

Zatara · November 10, 2016

I suppose that depends on whether you have any self respect and respect for your own football club. In my experience most football fans believe their club to be the centre of the universe...and they EXPECT a manager to buy into their club and certainly not tout its own players to other clubs and send out a message that there's nothing worth building here.
