Could be that Lukaku or those advising him doesn't think he has to earn his place.
He has the physical attributes, but does he have the same drive and hunger that Drogba did? Only time will tell, but if Jose is willing to let him go you have to wonder.
should be a big red flag if so
If I were him and I had a choice between Everton and Spurs I would choose Everton, a stable club with an intelligent young manager. Everton may not be a rich club but only the new financial deal by finishing 4th or 5th there will be enough money to buy him for about £20-25m
Not disagreeing with you, but in most cases (yes I know not all) players do tend to follow the money. Redknapp wasnt lying when he said it doesnt matter whether youre in Europe or not, its the wages offered that a player is really interested in....
What about Demba Ba if hes available?
he has those dodgy knees that he never seems to have any trouble with im sure joining Spurs would soon change that
In which case we probably would still not get him as there are clubs that can offer a lot more wages than us
I was talking about in relation to Everton. We still offer good wages, and not sure many top CL clubs would be in for him. Levy offers decent wages if he deems the player a big enough asset. For a potentially explosive player like him, and at his age I could see him offering a decent packet...
Still not seeing the big deal about this guy. Only seen him play well once, but that was against Spurs. Not exactly a good measuring stick. Don't see him becoming more than a second level player, upper mid table. Mourinho knows.

The guys 21 and got 15 Premier League goals last season and 17 the season before that.
Berbatov was 27 when he left us and he'd got 12 goals one season and 15 the season after that.
If a young kid has a better goal return than our greatest ever Premier League goal scorer than I think it's safe to say there's something about him!
