Possibly, but then how can you replace a player of the calibre of Romelu Lukaku?. This is Everton we are talking about, not the likes of Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs or one of the Manchester clubs, with all their buying power and chance of winning trophies..
The Match of the Day pundits are guilty of many things, but l think if anyone turned the Everton heirachy's heads it was more likely to be the baying for blood from their own fans, than the comments that came from the Beeb.
