Everton loan star Romelu Lukaku's so good captain Jagielka tries to avoid marking him in training
"He's a real presence. Obviously not getting the nod at Chelsea has made him even hungrier than he was last season at West Brom"

Phil Jagielka admits he tries to steer clear of Romelu Lukaku at Everton training - because he's such a handful.
Lukaku has scored three goals in his first two league appearances for the Goodison club since joining from Chelsea on a season-long loan, and Jagielka claims shackling the 6ft 3in striker is a nightmare.
"He's definitely a handful," said the Everton skipper of Lukaku, who hit two goals in Monday's 3-2 home win over Newcastle. "I try to stay away from him in training, to be honest!
"He has all the attributes and he loves playing football, and if you put it all together, then it can lead to some interesting days on the training pitch for us defenders.
"He's a real presence up front. Obviously he wasn't quite getting the nod at Chelsea and that's made him even hungrier than he was last season [when the Londoners loaned him to West Brom].
"He's a fantastic acquisition for us. He's a great player and has probably taken us up to that next level. If he can keep himself fit and keep himself confident, he could be great for us."
