Romelu Lukaku | Napoli watch
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
He did that without fail every time he wasted a pass at United.The thumbs up at the end...
He wasn't bad, much better than Lautaro for example. Just had Koulibaly on him all night and Napoli were very defensive which isn't easy after 4 months without playing a game.
His big game record is truly disgraceful.
He shoots elephants too?
obviously not (though he tries)
Lautaro completely went off the boil for the last few months of the season. He’s a big talent but people got far too carried away with him when he was in form.
I think a lot of clubs wouldn't mind having him for games against "smaller" clubs, even with his awful touch as he does score goals, but against the big clubs it is basically playing with 10 men. Reading the Forza Inter forum is just like reading on here when he was at the club.
He's in a cup final and a title race so he'll feel vindicated.
Generally as a player, he's less relevant now just due to the size of United and recognition our players face. However the criticisms he faced here are still very much relevant.

Apologies, I thought Inter went through. Still in a title race.
Title race is as good as gone - they're 9 points behind Juve with a game in hand
Funny I just recently saw people talking about the Lukaku's thumb up after he messes up a ballThe thumbs up at the end...
This thread is like therapy now, because it’s such a relief not having him doing that at United.
Someone needs to edit Lukaku miscontrol clips in to this.
The reaction of his team mates is the most telling. Resigned disappointment and frustration because they half expect it anyways.
Confirms he's shite
yea by the time he left it seemed like him and Pogba weren't as thick as they were when he came to the club when you could hardly ever see them separated. Wonder what went on there.
Him blabbering on and on about how great a winner he was and how the squad needed to cop on to Mourinho’s treatment, then proceeded to play like shit, probably have something to do with it.
Teacher’s pet.
That’s brutal! To be fair to him He put away some fairly difficult chances for us but in reality he’s all pace and power. I think he played best when he didn’t have time to think about what he was about to do. His technique is in no way that of an £80 million player. Morata or Lukaku, who would you take now if you had to take one? What the hell was going on with strikers that summer?
Chuffed that Ole went with Martial over him.
Also, as expected, Brozovic seems to get even more frustrated nowadays with him as a teammate

unbelievable Jeff. Two average strikers who got hyped because there was no one else on the market. Utd and Chelsea both got rinsed for players that were not anywhere near good enough for either club.
if I had to take one now it would be Morata, as I would never want to see Lukuku stinking out the club again. But it’s a pretty horrible choice.
the fact that we are better off, having not even replaced him says a lot about Lukuku. One of the best sales we’ve ever done as a club.

I've long thought that the likes of Hazard and De Bruyne must hate having to play with him for the national team
I always thinks he’s better running with the ball utilising his pace and strength. He’s oddly terrible at hold up play and control.
Weird striker but he’s scored so many goals that he’s obviously very good.
Glad he’s gone, Ighalo is an upgrade.

I think a lot of it is concentration lapses as well. He doesn't seem to have a problem with his control in training, otherwise he'd have worked on it by repetition.
His only problem is that his strengths are very rarely relevant in the big games, Inter have pretty much lost all their big games so far with Conte and Lukaku has been invisible in nearly all of them.
In the easier games he's a superb player to have. Him and Lautaro make a great duo.

I remember, about 40 thumbs a game on average.
Convinced he's a CB playing CF.
He is a top Europa League center forward, I'm not saying that as an insult but he is in the Luca Toni, Immobile, Kanouté or Luis Fabiano bracket. These are/were good players with great seasons on their records but they rightfully didn't get the hype that Lukaku got because at the time the couple of tiers above these players were clearly identifiable, you had the likes of Henry, Eto'o, Van Nistelrooy at the top and then below them the likes of Forlan, Makaay or Klose.
Tbh I don't understand this. Could you or someone kind enough to help me please ?
PTSD
Ah ok I get it now. Thanks.
