Ademola Lookman

[TheBigIguana]

Going out and signing a player in his position was the last straw most likely. Even though it was a necessary move he won't see it that way

 

[AmericasToffee]

Pure guess just from how this has played out in front of me:

This is posturing to tell Leipzig to STFU with the media banter and pony up a real offer if they want Lookman.

 

[Wat Tyler]

However, Silva has insisted Ademola Lookman will not be leaving despite interest from RB Leipzig, where he enjoyed a successful loan spell last season. “He is our player and he stays,” the Everton manager said.

 

[Mikbish]

Why would you say something like that?!

limited striking options and we need 1 more in ..plus Arsenal are willing to let him go , last year on his contract etc !

No, Bernard is not replacing him so shut up

Not interested if Lookman stays or goes. I hope he stays and fights for his place, but otherwise who cares? We are Everton, like most players he is nothing to us and we are nothing to him. .

A little less concerned if he leaves with the potential arrival of Bernard... I do hope he stays though. Incredible winger rotation we have if he does

Both can play #10 as well.

Watched a lot of Shaktar in my Fonseca scouting(!) and also Lookman at RB and would be awesome to see those two interchanging.

Front 4 of Richarlison - Lookman - Bernard - Walcott playing on the break would be awesome.

Throw Niasse up front with them lot and I bet he would get shed loads of goals, not sure what part of the body he would score them from but he would be there. Look at the goals he got last season with out terrible supply to the strikers.

Last year abundance of no 10s this year its wingers?......
Centre backs an attacking midfielder with pace and a striker needed imo......

This could take 2 Summers I fear.

But if he always sits only on the bench, he will never reach the desired level. He can only learn by playing. And plays again and again, although he still makes mistakes.

And he's with a management team that said he is going to be an important part of the first team, yet he still doesn't want to be here. It's all perfectly fine for us, Bernard can be our first option off the bench or someone else who's already better than Lookman and if he wants to play, he'll now have to train hard and earn it.

If RBL thinks he's so flipping great, they can sell a few more energy drinks and spend a legit amount to get him in the door. But he's not going for like 15-20M. If he's as good as he thinks he is AND RBL agrees, which they clearly don't, they'll pony up closer to 30M. Until then, poor Mola is going to have to actually work his tail off and get good enough to be a legit option. He'll have a chance, but up to him if he wants to take it or not.

Silva only made them comments on Saturday and im sure he'd have known about Bernard when he said them. Think Bernard will be used more centrally.
