He was class tonight and is in a rich vein of form. Six goals in three games and all around general good play. He was excellent tonight. Very happy for him and it's brilliant for the team.
I take it all back. If we can get him running at defenders one on one and onto dangerous balls into the box he’s great. He’s too powerful and his finishing has been great the last few week. The first goal was a tricky finish. I’m glad the lads are finally getting to enjoy themselves!
He’s quality when in form, guaranteed goals.
Sancho is a young talanted player who flourish this season as a RW/RF. We don't invest +100mil to play him as a false 9. If we will play and RW/RF is needed, we could be interested in him and try to get him. If we will play the diamond and we need a false 9 and/or a Silva type of player, Fekir or Felix are the better choice IMO.
Been amazing recently.
Happy for Red Rom. Got a lot of unfair stick and has come in and delivered with the goals we've needed. Invaluable to have a player like that at least on the bench
I'd want him to stay and give him a proper chance next season. Too early to write him off and it's hard to find strikers who scores goals regularly these days.
First goal was class. Say what you want about him but in knockout games you need a goalscorer like him. Two chances two goals, no dilly dallying.

That’s brilliant, feels so weird to hear a player being so open and honest. That stuff about Ole, didn’t think I’d hear a player actually come out and pin his opinion on the board like that.
Can someone make a video of his first touch today in Paris, please?
Just kidding! Come on, Rom!!!

Exactly. Also players that are not so skilful when they lose confidence they could look really bad sometimes. But when in form he is a top striker.
I think the key point is he was a far better match physically to Silva than Rashford in first leg. I thought Rashford was getting out muscled very easily by Silva at OT, but Lukaku bulldozed through him today in the first goal.
Big words on Ole! If all the players want it, are playing well, morale is high, how can you not?!
This!!
Even when PSG gifted us the chance, it was a tough finish and he scored from that tight angle with very little room to run into..
We all praise Rashford and Martial for their involvement in the buld up, but they are still a long way from being lethal finishers who can score 20+ goals in many seasons.
We need someone like Lukaku in our squad who is a traditional goal scoring striker and there is no way we can afford to sell him without getting an expensive replacement.
I am very glad he took his chance when called upon and scored match winning braces in 3 back to back games.
He deserves so much credit and respect for not sulking when he was clearly not in Ole's first 11 plans for a while.
I hope he continues to work on his overall game, score more goals and create a good selection headache for us to have.
And of course, it was very classy of him to console Kimpembe and talk to him for close to a minute at FT.
Looks like he just may have hit one of those patches
Again, his contribution to the team's overall play has improved significantly.
This was after the final whistle. Lukaku picked a distraught Kimpembwe off the ground and offered some kind words or something. Im guessing Lukaku is reminding him of the friendly bet they made before the game. 'You owe me 20 thousand Kimmy'

Looked better tonight, took his goals well, first touch was noticeably better, and held the ball up well on the few occasions that we played it into him. Didn't win many headers, and ran out of steam towards the end ( not a criticism), but he's certainly improved in these last few games.
Brilliant last few games, without doubt if you can get Lukaku flowing he's very difficult to stop. Good to see him smiling, also that was a very good interview with Neville. Refreshing to hear a player actually be honest and not come out with the usual rehearsed lines.
I was so out of it at the end that I didn't even notice that he went to CB. Incredible.
reminds me of that game in José's first season where Zlatan played the last 10 or so minutes as our CDM

His reactions where superb, just looked the goals again and his killer instinct is there. Specially in the second goal, the first rule is you dont stop running you must seek the mistake and he did. He was at least 3-4 meters behind PSG CBs who should had got the rebound easily but he simply keep pushing and got rewarded for it.
He is currently on beast mode, 3 straight games scoring two. Lets get Rashford back on track and we'll have one hell of attack.

I am only quoting you because you asked me to. Cheers!
I thought his hold-up play was fecking class. He fed on scraps but still managed to do some things with it.
His goals are a testament on his improved physical condition.

I'm glad to be able to say that I always retained faith in him, even when it wasn't looking good for him. I fecking love the way he played in the very middle of a back 5 in the final few minutes tonight as well
He has won me over, amazing recently. Scored many good goals too.
By his own admission and according to Ole, he’s fitter now than he was when Ole arrived. It’s good to see because a fit and firing Lukaku means we still have two cups to realistically aim for.
What a week he had. 6 goals in 3 games and every goal was important. No stat padding.
Scoring 2 goals in CL KO, probably equalled Zlatan's record for goals in CL knock outs.

It's clear to see on TV too, the guy works much harder than before. Makes more runs, he wouldn't have scored that 2nd goal if he didn't work on his fitness for instance. The best is yet to come from him.
Hes making a lot of people (me included) eat their fecking words here. Can't believe the turn around he has managed.
Indeed, and it also shows how articulate Lukaku is. He's a smart guy. No hesitation with his responses either.
Looks like Big Rom is going through another growth spurt in terms of technique (the recent right footed goalscoring streak) and mental attitude (scoring clutch goals).
Fantastic interview above as well - hope he makes it here but even if he doesn’t I think we would recoup most of the money we splashed out on him now.
Lukaku was always decent using his weaker foot.
He was but he’s not shown it since joining here and in all fairness those right footed strikes recently have been of a higher quality IMO (really tough right situations and having to get a quick shot off with unerring accuracy). Given him an air of unpredictability.
Quite funny that the interview is quite damming on Mourinho in terms of the players reacting and believing in the manager and his decisions.
He did and I remember having this discussion with you last season. Yeah the strikes are cleaner and for the first time I saw him scoring the goal from outside the box but he was comfortable using his right foot. He used to shift before whipping crosses or small passes.
Like you said, there is even more improvement on that. Also good change is, he has cut down unnecessary touches to set the ball before striking it. Just a quick flick and shoot which gives him more space and less time for defenders to block it.
Great performance. Hope he will be OK for Arsenal, he looked a bit crocked after being kicked with like 25 minutes left. Neither him or Rashford looked anywhere near fitness towards the end which makes the win even more sweet. Again: Just hope they both will be fit for Arsenal and that we will get some players back. It will be needed.
I fecking love Lukaku, put some respect on his name!
It was the perfect night for him. Used his size and pace to great effect and they had no idea how to handle him. We were pinned back which gave him plenty of space to run at when we broke out. Shows he can have a future here, if he's prepared to be a squad player.
