'You Want Him Like The Incredible Hulk'

Everton’s post-war leading goalscorer Graeme Sharp believes the outstanding finishing ability of Romelu Lukaku is what sets the Everton striker apart from his peers.

With a four-goal display against Bournemouth to take his league tally to 16 last time out, Lukaku overtook Arsenal’s Alexis Sanchez and Chelsea’s Diego Costa to go top of the Premier League scoring charts.

The Belgian’s first strike of the afternoon - after just 30 seconds - was the quickest goal Goodison had ever witnessed in the Premier League era and that was just the start as the Club-record signing netted three more to surpass Tim Cahill’s league haul for the Toffees (56) and move within one strike of Duncan Ferguson’s record (60).
