I voted - Yes* but ask me on Monday after the Rooney Loan is announced

* Provisionally Yes - until Jan; but if we're not shaping up, he's free to tout himself to who ever and where ever he can.

He's got 2 years left on his contract, so no point touting himself to anyone now or in Jan who isn't willing to put £100M on the table, if we're to believe that is what Moshiri has told Jim White he wont accept a penny less than.

He has mouthed off every international break since he has been here that he wants out, but continued to score more and more goals, so I see no reason why he wouldn't continue to do so next season if he stays. I may not like him for constantly disrespecting us, but at the end of the day he is a proven top-class striker in the Premier League and they are hard to come buy, so it is madness to think that we would be better off without him. I would be doing everything possible to keep him and if we do manage to sneak into the top 4 this season it increases the chance of keeping him longer term.
 
Although Lukaku is clearly in the top bracket of strikers in the world I still think he has some learning to do. I'm not so sure he's ready to fit in a team of superstars just yet. He could benefit from another season as the main man in a team as far as I can see. Hopefully Rooney will help convince him of that.

100M is the key - the unspoken elephant in Rom's room is there maybe aren't too many takers knocking his door down - hence the Jan 'compromise'?
 
I'd very happily take the January 'compromise'...but my line of thinking regarding Lukaku has been consistent for the last 2 years: 'Keep him for one more window and if we aren't competing, he can go'.

If we keep him, we'll be 40 points clear at the top of the Premier and blitzing all the cups by Jan 2018, he's be mad to walk at that stage. If he goes before the start of the season, I think we'll struggle to be more than 18 points clear at the top of the Prem by Feb 2018.
 
A £100m striker would have scored at least one of the 5 clear cut chances he had in the FA Cup semi-final game, in fact a Sunday league player would have.

He totally disrespects our club, the entire team was based around getting him in scoring positions, and designed around coping with his laziness.

Keep him and lash him on the bench and humiliate him. Fine him the maximum amount everytime he mouths off on international duty.

The fact that Barkley has said nothing about leaving and this clown has said it, no joke, maybe 30 times and not been disciplined by the club once is shocking! This "New Everton" need to show everyone we mean business.

i'd rather see him outperformed by our new striker(s) and have him earn his benching
 
he wants champions league football. The guys classless off the pitch but on it he's earned the right to play at the highest level. Our spending and ambition have come maybe a season too late for Rom so i doutb Mosh or any ammount of money or signings will change his mind. That said it might not need to if no-one matches our valuation of him.
