People can stop complaining about Lukaku - he hasn't scored as many as I expected, but his all-round play has been better than expected.
 
Brilliant in the 2nd half. Imagine if he had Mata's technique.
 
That turn and sprint in the 93' was freaking awesome. Too bad he wasn't able to get to the ball just a sec sooner but the fact he out ran them while coming from a behind position was just exhilarating. Way to go Rom!
 
Atlast performs in a big match. My MOTM. This performance should spur him on to do better against the top 6.
 
So he can do it.

He set a standard today and only he can make sure he continues to perform like that going forward.

I thought his second half performance in particular was outstanding.
 
Was terrible until he scored. After that he was transformed. Hope he continues in this vein. That burst into their half in injury time was superb to see.
 
I gave him MOTM for his goal and assist, but he was poor in large stretches today, his all round game is just so hit and miss and sloppy.
 
Where has this lukaku been hiding, if he performs half as well as he did today in other big games, the whole big game bottler tag will become extinct.
 
He scores when he wants, he scores when he wants, Romelu Lukaku, he scores when he wants.

Before the goal, he was pretty poor, to be honest. However, once he scored, confidence built, and looked a lot better.

His assist for Lingard was superb. Not only the cross, which was beautiful, but the lead up to it too.

Really happy for him.
 
Can't argue with what he did today. I was slating him even when he scored but for the rest of the game he was great.

Still don't think he's good enough. He's better as a bloody right winger than a striker.
 
Great game from him.

Hopefully a turning point for him. He got himself a lot more involved. I think the formation change helped him.
 
Can be quality when utilized right. Pace and power, play the ball ahead of him and he will cause damage. He just isn’t a Zlatan back to goal style. Great today.
 
Helped him having a partner for the majority of the game, had someone to link with and play off and just generally look less isolated than usual, very strong performance.
 
This match could be a big turning point for Rom. If he starts dishing out these kind of displays in the big games more regularly nobody will doubt him, as he’s a machine against the fodder.
