Will Lookman survive beyond January ?

The only positive is it would be another nail in RD'S coffin. There's not much more he can reclaim in player sales.

 

I read that squirrel face was in the directors box at Liverpool home game this season, I am certain that can only be in connection to Lookman being sold.

 

There’s a sense of unease as to how Lookman’s career is progressing, and not just amongst many Everton fans on social
media.

Fat Sam last night claimed that Lookman himself “insisted” on a loan move and is “stubborn”. This doesn’t bode well - going to RB Leipzig on loan is stupid when he could have dropped to the Championship & got 20 games under his belt. Lookman insisted on the RBL move according to Everton.

It suggests to me that AL is easily led and is being given bad advice from those around him. Everton was always a gamble for him but he wanted the £30,000 a week and 6 careers starts for them so far suggests a gamble that hasn’t yet paid off. He needs to get games under his belt, else risks ending up another young footballer who got too much, too soon. What happens to Lookman this summer will be interesting.

 

The next news I expect to hear about Ademola is that he has been called up to the Nigeria squad, they have been after him for years.

 

Good move for him. He’s not going to play under fat Sam, and he will learn a lot more playing in a young attacking team challenging for the champions league than he would at derby.

 

Leipzig are a good team in the top tier of germany. If he gets games it could be a decent move.

 

The key thing will be whether he gets games.
I reckon Lookman has got some greedy advisers around him incl maybe his own family members, a money bags CL club no doubt offered him private jet flights.Currently he is trying to put a roof on his footballing career without laying any foundations. Oliver Burke did something very similar & things haven’t turned out great for him.

 

You couldn't be more wrong about Lookman's Family members. I had the pleasure of speaking to Ademola's Father on a number of occasions at the Training ground and he was a humble man. He said that Ade loved playing for Charlton. What young player would turn down a big money move to a good club in Everton? I think playing in the Bundesliga will enhance Ade as a footballer. It is obvious that Big fat Sam doesn't rate him that highly. A good move for him.

 

Agree - seems a good move on paper. Big Sam has no idea what to do with Lookman, and the general consensus amongst Everton fans is that they back AL.

 

Ademola Lookman came off the bench to score the winner for RB Leipzig on his debut tonight.

 

Predictable. Very good player.

 

Shows Big Sam's limitations as a manager.

 

The Everton fans don’t seem happy with him already. Ugly Route 1 football will only get you so far. Peter Crouch the next big signing at Goodison.

 

Don't worry about the football Ade, think of your bank balance!

 

To a fan, the Evertonians want Allardyce out this summer.

 

The club is a mess at the moment. Poor recruitment, a manager they don't want.. sound familiar
