Winning trophies or best for business?? Trophies for me everytime and having the premier leagues top scorer from the 2016/17 season improves our chances.

I'd put that 100 million pound statement with the Rooney 50 million comment.

I think £70/75m with addons. Everton will know where they stand by the end of the season, so I agree sort it quick, agree to sell or agree to keep him and don't be making another window of excuses.
If he's sold this summer, why do it early, the quicker we sell the quicker the clubs we want players from will hike up the price.
"We'll give you £25m"
"Didn't you just sell Lukaku?"
"We'll give you £50m"
"We'll give you £25m"
"Didn't you just sell Lukaku?"
"We'll give you £50m"
Remind me of all the trophies we have won in these past 4 seasons with this world class striker mate? Heck even all these top 4 finishes. What rounds did we get dumped out the FA and League Cup this season?
Again this notion of we are 75% guaranteed a trophy or top 4 finish because we keep hold of Rom is naive at the least and deluded at the most. Liverpool are 4th with no out and out striker we are 7th with the league's best.
He doesn't want to be here get £80-85 million and reinvest in good players who fit Koemans style and believe in the club's project.
The teams with the best players in most cases win trophies.
We want to try and keep our better players to try and win some silverware.
As much as I would like to keep Rom, there is an undeniable logic to that post.

The Stones deal last summer does not fill me with confidence that a quick deal will be done.
If Lukaku's sale is delayed and delayed, and it leads to a summer where we end up just spending what we get for him and a couple of others going out the door, there should be a storm of protests at the level of spending and big questions asked about wtf use Moshiri is.
I accept that scenario is not in play at the moment, but if it does roll out that way there can be no hiding place for the largest share holder calling the shots at the club.
Be funny if we kept Rom, and added circa £70 to £100m of players mind.
If the rulez allow that even.
I would love us to keep Rom if he had 3+ years left on his deal or wanted to sign a new contract but it's clear he wants out I just don't see the benefits of letting his contract run down to the final year and losing a good £40 odd million from his sale that could get us 1-2 more top quality players, rather than keeping him when theirs very little guarantee we will finish 5/6th next season, never mind a title challenge or trophy win that alot of our fans are predicting.
Our best way forward is Koeman given a good £100-150 million to invest in players that fit his style and all fighting for the same cause. Keeping Rom on top of spending £150 million+ on CL quality players on 200k a week deals would obviously give us a higher chance of mixing it with the elite clubs, but we aren't bankrolled by a oligarch or sheikh.

And 3 months for you to slate EFC to the max!
Dont think the fee's are the problem, its (or it would be) the wages.
Have to say, I dont really have a clue mate.
Actually, I do. You are right. The fees are not an issue, (not in CL?), but the wages might be.
But then weve freed up a bundle from the wage will the last year or so.
Lets see.
