    Marco Silva expects Ademola Lookman to get "better and better" after he impressed in Everton's 2-0 victory over Bournemouth on Sunday.

    The 21-year-old spent the first half of 2018 on loan with RB Leipzig and there was speculation that he might leave Goodison Park in the summer.

    "Fantastic player," Silva told Sky Sports when asked about Lookman. "I said since the first day that I joined the club that it was really important to keep him.

    "You know what happened in pre-season. I put high pressure on and turned his mind to keep him here with our club and I think what we saw today we will see better and better in the future.He has all the quality to play in that position in our model."

    He looked mustard yesterday. Glad to see him doing well!
  • A mystery why he's played so little this season. You could understand it under Big Sam, but not Silva

    Make sure you play him then.

    Did a lot of 'dirty' work yesterday tracking back etc which doesn't always get the appreciation it deserves.

    In my opinion Everton fell apart the moment they took Ade off and brought on 'golden bollocks' Walcott the media darling.

    Is Lookman injured only he is not in the squad tonight in Premier League?

    Commentary mentioned 3 or 4 times now how surprised they are Walcott is starting yet Lookman isn’t even on the bench.
    No mention of any injury by Everton either.
  • When you see what Sancho is doing, and his route to the England team, I bet Lookman is gutted he's not in the Bundesliga.

    Always looks lively when he comes on. I know an Everton that just doesn't understand Silva is doing with him.

    Shame - needs to get out of there ASAP IMO.

    I never really rated him that much to be honest.....never got what all the fuss surrounding him was all about.

    Richard Cawley saying that Charlton had a significant sell on clause if Lookman moved on, Bowyer won’t see any of that

    I wonder what "significant" means. Also, is it on the profit or the whole fee. Usually it's the profit.......so maybe 20%-25% of £11m....? 
  • Short-sighted of RD. If some sales were re-invested in squad we'd attract s better class of player with sell-on potential.

    To be honest, the fuss was because we were having an absolutely shithouse season and he was the one bright spark in it. He's a very talented player though; he had an excellent spell in Germany and when he's on form Premier League defences still haven't figured out how to deal with him. His issues are with consistency and work ethic though. Silva regularly criticises him for the effort he puts in in training and when he does get a start he often disappoints. He seemed happier in Germany though so hopefully he can start over and get some form together

    I can understand him not fitting in under Big Sam, but you would have thought Lookman would have thrived under Silva. It's a big fee for someone who's done nothing in the PL, it shows how good RBL think he is.

    Given how wisely we spent the initial £11mill, I can't wait to see how we spend this windfall

    Does my head in reading Everton fan views that he had a bad attitude and that they're glad he's gone - Cant blame the poor lad for being pissed off last season; Helped Leipzig into the Europa League (missing out on the Champions League by two points) and his parent club (not even in Europe last season) sign someone else

    Not to mention the fact that his "advisors" are apparently his coaches from his days @ Waterloo FC so straight away reeks of bad attitude doesnt it!!

    Are sell on fees on the whole fee, or just the portion above the original sell price?

    Not often we have a player with both pace and skill who can score goals with either foot.
