He could be a good player but not good enough for what we aspire to (cringe thinking of Moyes).
I'd swap him for Icardi. We won't get any tidy fee for him and we get in a striker to replace him.
Player swaps rarely happen though.

I wouldn't touch Icardi with a barge pole. Very talented forward but he brings too much drama even for the Italian football, never mind the EPL. No one is gonna put up with his shit here.Not only has he reassured many of our suspicions, but also that piece by Di Marzio in regard to a Icardi-Lukaku swap is looking more promising now.
As would anyone who has played a reasonable level of football but hang on, isn't he meant to be a pro?? He's so out of his depth at this level it truly is laughable. I don't care about the stats, that's history, his time here is an unmitigated disaster both financially and footballyI would have done a better job..
This was my despair with the Everton line up: right-footed Dalot and Martial on the left, Lindelof and Rashford on the right, Pogba really advanced up with Lukaku. Where was the service to come from?Instead, at United, he is standing, and clearly instructed to stand, further up the pitch, in a central position, with a centre half already on him. Pogba is the only player in the midfield capable of playing those through passes, none other. Against Everton his supply line was Rashford and Martial from out wide, neither of whom can cross. For Belgium, and indeed United, he will continue to score the kinds of goals he's always scored - as a striker being freed into a pocket of space by another player's pass.
When that supply line is Pogba, currently 20 yards back in midfield again, for whatever reason, a series of players who have no pedigree in their passing whatever - Martial, Rashford, Lingard, Matic, McTominay, Fred - and full-backs who are raw and currently unable to get forward due to the lack of midfield control, you end up with one very unhappy centre forward..
What a terrible quotes. Every player in the club thinks it's fine to flirt with other clubs. Pogba with Madrid and now this guy with Italy. I'm not going to lose sleep over anyone leaving of these mercenaries.
Just like Eric Djemba DjembaI actually think he's almost certain to go.
Ole clearly doesn't fancy him, and he has no fight in him to be the main striker.
Hopefully we can get some decent money for him.
What a shit signing he's been. A total loser.
