Romelu Lukaku SLAMMED by match pundits after 'shushing' Everton team-mate

Romelu Lukaku may be the Premier League's top scorer, but he clearly still has a lot to learn.

The Belgian forward was wasteful throughout Everton's game with Manchester United on Tuesday night and it proved costly as the Toffees conceded a last-gasp equaliser.

Lukaku was selfish in positions when he had team-mates in support while Everton were 1-0 up, spurning several chances to double their advantage.

And the striker appeared to get involved in a heated argument with team-mate Ashley Williams during the contest, even telling him to keep quiet.

Williams saw red for denying Luke Shaw's goal-bound shot with his hand on the goalline, leading to United's equaliser in stoppage time.

And while the Everton defender and Lukaku appeared to engage in a frosty conversation during the game, the latter was then seen venting his anger to Paul Pogba in the immediate aftermath.

The BT Sport punditry panel of Ian Wright, Rio Ferdinand and Martin Keown were scathing of Lukaku's behaviour, who all agreed it showed a lack of respect.

"We know that he's [Lukaku] a big player in that dressing room because he scores the goals but Ashley Williams is saying something to him and he's shushing him," Wright said.

Ferdinand then added: "I'd definitely be in the changing room after saying: 'What are you talking about?'

"That's not the camaraderie that you need in a team to be successful."

Everton seemed destined to leapfrog their opponents into fifth position in the Premier League, but Zlatan Ibrahimovic's late equaliser means they stay in seventh.
