10 Reasons Why Liverpool Fans Are Jealous Of Everton

8. Romelu Lukaku

It€™s difficult for supporters of any other club to shake off that twinge of jealously when looking at Romelu Lukaku€™s season stats. The prolific Belgian is the division€™s hottest striker, and a forward of his calibre is something Liverpool have lacked since the days when Luis Suarez added bite to their attack. The 22-year-old€™s 18 league goals and physical presence have kept Everton in contention for a top-five finish (just about), and a striker with a return like that could have compensated for the Reds€™ defensive frailties and helped them challenge for Champions League football. Meanwhile, the only thing consistent about the Reds€™ attack this term is injuries to Daniel Sturbridge and Christian Benteke€™s misfiring. Roberto Firmino has begun adjusting to the demands of the Premier League, but is a long way off Lukaku€™s level.
