da dobrowin: It is always risky when football clubs post messages on their social media relating to players who have previously represented the team in question.
da pinup bet: And that is more so the case with individuals who divide opinion.
Romelu Lukaku scored 87 times for Everton between 2014 and 2017, before making the move to Manchester United ahead of the 2017-18 campaign.
Lukaku was a popular figure during his time at Goodison Park, but there are a number of Everton fans who were disappointed with the manner of his exit.
On Wednesday, Everton’s official Twitter account posted a video of an 11-minute hat-trick that the Belgian had scored back in 2016.

Some of the club’s supporters took to social media to pay tribute to the centre-forward, but there were those who decided to have a pop at him.
Lukaku has gone on to become a regular goalscorer at United, and for all of the criticism surrounding him, there is no question that he is one of the best forwards in Europe.
