staying tight to lukaku is about the worst thing you can do: " onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

remember oxford getting done in this exact way last season.

There's a difference between a strong and experienced hard Welshman who has done this kind of thing many times before and a lightweight inexperienced 17 year old.

It seems to me we always lose to Everton, especially at home. Might as well play some youngsters, and rest some.

They could leave Lukaka back home in his house and he would score, that's the way it is with him, the other year hardly got a touch then wollop, its in the net 1-1 with a few minuets left, if I recall correctly, cant remember if we drew or lost that game at the old girl, more chance of us winning than him not scoring

their goal distribution is insane. lukaku has 24, the next down on the list has 5.

people like to harp on about the job koeman is doing, buy slav a 25 goal a season striker and see where we end up.

Not as insane as you imply

Everton have actually had SEVENTEEN different scorers this season - more than any other P.L. side.

So watch it! :wink:

Lukaku has been carrying Everton for years, they should get massive money for him though so atleast they can invest, otherwise they would have been screwed. They can happily have Valencia for 10 mil :lol:

The worst thing is they'll have more kids on the pitch than us, starting, they'll actually be playing kids, and they'll still beat us :fsake:

I'm gobsmacked by the news that Bilic plans to stick with Randolph. For the first time I have to question Slav, even if there are contract difficulties with Adrian (I don't see how that stops him playing).

Happily I'm in Devon this week-end and I won't have to suffer watching us get a drubbing. Six of our first ten not available and the better goalkeeper not given a game...

3-0 Everton, two for Lukaku.

We get a draw, I would call it one of our best and most surprising results of the season.

We win I will be absolutely astounded. Based on this season I see absolutely no reason whatsoever how it will happen...but we can dream.

It would be completely in the West Ham tradition to win this one, given the improbability and form. But that was West Ham. Not the club we currently are. I think they'll score quite a few.

William Hill offering Evens on Lukaku scoring at any time. Anyone wanting a risk-free investment should give this serious consideration.

The optimist in me says 2-2 draw. Lukaku for them obviously and the pessimist says 1-3 with Lukaku getting 2 and Mirallas 1. We go ahead in each scenario of course!
