Was gonna comment but didn't want to offend. Pogba has a boyish innocence about him and seems like a genuinely nice dude. Its just his agent.Yep. I'm kind of glad Lukaku joined that list as it looked like I just hated Argentinians.
I won't hold any ill will for Pogba, not unless he obviously stops trying or regularly shit-talks us after he leaves (I don't expect either). It just didn't work out.
Romelu Lukaku | Napoli watch
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
problem was he wasn’t aiming for his mouth.
But I don't get it, Sanchez put a nice header but the keeper was on it anyway, and if Lukaku even tries to lower his stance, the goal, if it happened, would be ruled out for obstruction, no?
We don't have loads to cheer for at the moment. Can't we have a bit of fun with this?!
It’s so disappointing how many football clubs have Twitter accounts who post cringey heat-of-the-moment tweets like that for a few double digit thousand interactions. Banter has and always will be a part of the game, but it really rubs me the wrong way when actual football accounts do it.
Considering how thin-skinned Lukaku is, I expect him to come back throwing hands.
Yeah why did they settle for Europa league when they could have reached CL round of 16?
For being given the permanent job Ole owes a debt of gratitude to Lukaku imo
Lukaku and Pogba, got him the permanent job. (Unfortunately)
“Can Inter score? They always score”
“And Lukaku has blocked it”!!!
“And Lukaku has blocked it”!!!
It was Lukaku not Vincent Kompany.
The problem here is that Lukaku seems to be very sensitive and I suspect that he has seeked and watched all of the things said about him in the last few days. Hopefully, he understands that it's not that important and isn't affected by it.
He won't though and that's why I enjoy about him doing clownish things.
Is there any player in recent history that compares with Lukaku in scoring so many goals yet being thought of by so many people as a pretty poor player?
I think that it's a misconception. When you push people most will tell you that he is a pretty good goalscorer, the issue is that he runs his mouth way too much and his fans are also way too noisy for someone that is basically the belgian Immobile.
I really don't think that's true. His latest statement that he's a top 5 striker is by far his most boastful statement, and it's not an outragous one at all, at least not when considering that most elite sportsmen have a lot of belief in themselves. And he doesn't really have any fans, so that can't be it.
perhaps if he watched his mouth, people wouldn’t laugh at him so much. This is all his own doing.
be a grown ass man etc etc.
Nutshell
Looking at the latest video, more like the immobile Belgian
You are fooling no one.
I mean, I think he's very good and that it's unforunate it didn't work out here. I'm not convinced the sale was a good idea, at least not handled correctly, but the price was great and now that he's gone I don't want him back. He also wasn't one of the strikers I wanted United to go for when he got here.
In the context of this thread it makes me one of his biggest fans, but that's making my point and not yours.
Mario Gomez circa 2011/12.
Why do fans keep mocking a former player like this? Has he upset some of you in any ways?
Club Official Twitter Accounts have to be more professional no?
Embarrassing.
At least make a better post that is more "professional" if they want to banter.
Eg. "Inter nearly scored" and "Saved" with that same picture.
That’s great. Feck the no banter rule some have declared
When said player made comments criticizing the club and being delusional, such as consistently blaming other people, not himself even if he himself is at fault. There are also reports of him refusing to attend our pre-season trainings(?) even if at that time, he is still under contract. His huge ego too thinking he's a top top player. His questionable fitness too is questionable. Overall, you have to ask question about his professionalism. He's just an unlikable player because of those. Such as shame considering how good he is in getting goals at the end of the day, it totaled up to a high goals end of season. It's like lost of opportunity seeing him like this. Could've improve more if he's really aware of himself.
He clearly has upset some of us.Agreed.
Though classy banter post/tweet is still far better than that direct banter tweet. There should be small sense of professionalism and respect if clubs really want to banter officially. I mean, it's like our club once made that Juventus article for the upcoming CL game vs them in 18/19 (?) clearly stating their past corruptions
that sure ended up "well". Whoever decided to put that in sure want to banter Juve. It's not classy and is more being blatantly disrespectful than playing a good banter exchange game.Post of the year
He's like a slightly better Nicklas Bendnter with the ego to match. I'm glad we no longer have him as our main striker with his first touches akin to goal kicks
Forgot all about Bendnter! He was a massive bellend, and talked some proper bollocks. If he was still relevant he would have his own thread for sure.
I don't think he'd get much criticism if he accepted his limitations and focused on being the best he can be with his skillset, like say for what Giroud has done.
His issue is he's got the ego of a bonafide world class player and more worryingly (going by his comments and actions down the years) seems to genuinely think he actually is one.
