Everton’s Romelu Lukaku scores their third goal to complete his hat trick
Everton forward Romelu Lukaku has told Sky Sports he must become a serial killer in front of goal for the Blues.
The striker was in superb form on Monday evening, as he bagged a hat-trick in the 3-0 win over Sunderland.
It was a consummate performance from the Belgian, and brought about a swift end to the goal drought that had been hanging over him since March.
In reality he could have had more than the three, having missed a gilt-edged chance in the first half. He also hit the bar with a rasping effort.

“I think I could have had five in the end. I have to be more of a serial killer for the team to achieve their objective.”
