He doesnt play in the winter - as wierd as that sounds.
He's boss when it isnt freezing.

I’d let him run his contract down and play next year. But if he is still scoring next year, give him a year extension, he’d probably take it. If not, he can negotiate a good package elsewhere.
I know everyone is obsessed nowadays with not letting players go on a free, but when the likely resale isn’t massive I see it being a viable option (only in specific cases usually with ageing players).
Giving players contracts you don’t really want them to see out, just so you can sell them has its risks, if you can’t sell them!!!! I don’t think for a second he would, but if he fell out of favour he could sit at FF for a couple of years taking the money and refuse approaches from other clubs. Or suddenly fall of a cliff in terms of pace and fitness.
Losing out on a small sale fee has to be balanced against contractually committing to X years more salary for a player that is probably only going to get worse.
Fantastic finish yesterday. Don’t see many like that these days weirdly. Gutted he wasn’t match winner, and he looked proper annoyed we threw it away.
Another game killed by taking him off…

Brilliant finish yesterday. He does genuinely seem to be improving his game as we go along. We watched a reel of all Lukaku's EFC goals over half-time yesterday and that one would not have been out of place. Would keep him, personally.

Seem to remember we didn’t win that one either!….just like against Man City
….but we were losing it when he came off and the bloke who replaced him scored two. Bit of a nothing discussion anyway.

Beto shares talks with 'upset' Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall after Everton draw
Beto spoke after his goal had put Everton in front at Crystal Palace, who fought back for the second time to earn a share of the spoils at Selhurst Park
Been giving emotional support as well. Maybe tell him to 'just shoot' next time (if he hadn't said it after Brentford already)

Justifiably earned a bit of cult hero status.
He's not perfect - but neither are nearly all of our players if we're being honest. Letting him go would be a big gamble imo.

…..seems very popular with his teammates too.
Next for new contract talks 
I only want him sold if Barry is sold too. Otherwise I'm too fearful we'll see far too much Barry next season. Personally think he'd be a great squad option next season, Beto. Guess it might depend what offers come in for him and if we can get anywhere near our money back.
