I'm getting excited at the thought of Real Madrid buying him, I hope it happens

Assists aside let's be honest he was gash
Played like shit, won us the game Those passes were brilliant though, especially the first one.
My main issue with him today had probably more to do with Solskjaer than with him. Arsenal constantly had numerical advantage on the left — and it's okay when it's in a quick attack, but when they have 3 attackers against 2 defenders for a minute and Lukaku still doesn't come back... we were lucky that their left wing was awful today (even though they still created one goal from there).
That was our strategy really. Allow their full backs to get forward and hit them on the break. We create a 3v2 upfront while they have the numerical advantage on the wing. We can't have Lukaku follow their full back around and also play on the counter. We took the risk and reaped the rewards.Played like shit, won us the game Those passes were brilliant though, especially the first one.

It was 100% calculated risk. Don't know how someone could miss this.I think that was the calculated risk he decided to take. Same happened against Spurs.

Yeah, but still, with Lingard or Rashford on the wing you have a different situation. They don't participate much in defending and their role is to be ready to break forward, yet somehow they don't hurt the team shape the same way Lukaku did tonight. I don't think that he's physically capable of performing that role though.That was our strategy really. Allow their full backs to get forward and hit them on the break.

We've been screaming to try Lukaku on the right and it worked. He seems to play better when the pressure is off him. Very good player to have up top.
