Yeah, I've got a much bigger problem with the amount that average players earn. Andy Carroll on 90k a week, Negredo on 100k is just a joke. They must both wake up every morning and have to pinch themselves.
Everton should rinse the madness for all they can get. If someone's willing to pay 100m for Lukaku then that's what they should ask for him.
The problem they'll have is bringing in an equivalent replacement, and the real danger is they do a Spurs: wasting the Bale money on a load of cut price prospects, most of whom made no impact at all. Anyone remember Soldado? But what can Everton do? They're not likely to break into the top 4 anytime soon so players of Lukaku's quality won't even look at them and even up and coming prospects will demand a higher salary than they would at one of the elite clubs. It's depressing.
