Looking at him against Valencia he already seems to have got rid of a great deal of the excess weight. Certainly looked more the part and did move better. Still nowhere near good enough though!

I gotta say that I thought some caftards were over playing the issue ( I couldn't tell the difference).
Sorry but there’s no excuse. He’s a professional footballer; thousands of boys across the country would give their left arm to be in his position and would make sure they keep on top of their fitness levels if that’s what it takes.
Lukaku is the worst striker I’ve seen playing for Man Utd.
He’s also one of the worst overall players if you count in other positions.
How does one play for Manchester United lacking the basic skills is beyond me.
It’s embarrassing to watch.
Funny thing is I really like him, but on footballing reasons I can’t wait for him to leave the club.
Our club is behind on so many areas that this should not be suprising. One a positive note: New people coming in(DoF(we can dream), manager, coaches) can easily find elements to improve.
I'd like to see the improvements before I die tbf.
Needs to bulk up

Well, how old are you?
His lack of spatial awareness is astonishing, how can he not track the ball in the air? Wouldn't surprise me if he needed a CT scan
World cup hangover and overplayed in the last year and a half. He was playing 90 minutes constantly when he should have been subbed. He was basically playing once a week at Everton. We went far in the cup competitions and was playing European football, without rest. Then the extra muscle put on made him even slower. He looks exhausted, Fergie would have took that man out of the team for a month. Give him a holiday and trainer to recharge. He's been basically played though this awful form for 90 minutes again when he's offering nothing. Comes back to bad management again. Talking shite in the media doesn't help when he ain't performing. Poor rotation and fatigue mixed with lack of confidence has caught up.
This is truly one of the most horrific threads on the Caf.Can we rename this thread the "Casual racism is acceptable" thread?
Right on homie! Tbh his hold up ain't that great either, he often gets bullied by players that are supposed to be weaker than him. I remember one time even Blind kept him in his pocket.
