Agreed with all of this. I think Stones is the one we'd be prepared to drop the asking price for to secure the move, and so be it - he was professional after last summer. Ideally I'd want him to stay, but won't begrudge a move.

Lukaku is a different story as he tried to back us into a corner and get the fans riled up into demanding he goes on the cheap, giving "plucky little Everton" the easy out for £40m ish.

Backfired spectacularly.

A new contract doesnt just reward him tho, it gives us added security.

It does if he earns £40k more a week.

We don't need the security either. We only need Rom during the transition period with the new investment. Gives us twelve months to identify new targets to suit our way of playing, then we can offload - or it gives us twelve months to build around him, then reward him with the new contract if he keeps his mouth shut.

Unfortunately, I think he'll sign a new contract this summer.
