Romelu Lukaku | Napoli watch
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
He’s was absolutely useless. I’d be flapping if I were a Belgium supporter tonight, he missed so many chances.
That's gotta be one of the worst misses I've ever seen, even without taking into account the fact that it got them knocked out of the WC.
One way of putting it. Another would be contrarian.
It's his style of posting. He probably agrees with the posts in here anyway
Student of the game.
Somewhere Yakubu is smiling
That performance was so bad he’ll probably never live it down in Belgium
Hes a good striker but damn he seems to have games like this on a regular basis he’s always missing sitters.

When you think of the absolute shit Andy Cole used to get for essentially not being Alan Shearer, yet still delivering in multiple huge games and moments, it’s incredible how Lukaku still gets pundits making excuses for him despite a decade of famously going missing in big games, having a really poor record against the top 6 (at every club) and fluffing high profile chances whilst still getting treated like an Elite striker every time he moves clubs or comes into a new tournament.
Must… not… laugh…
Guilty as charged m'lud
Serial bottler.
Absolute chancer
An exception to the rule. Lukaku is notoriously horrendous in big games.
Coach should've went down. Guaranteed payout.
Fecking hell. Has to bury one of those.
That’s some shocking misses.
If this doesn’t humble him nothing will.
Pathetic striker
Never forget that half the caf wanted this ‘grown ass man’ to be made Man Utd captain in 18/19.
I don't actually think the one on the post is that bad. He has to run towards it at full speed and still angle it back towards the goal while getting it around the defender. He's mostly just unlucky with that one.
The other two are mind-boggling, although the first one would have been ruled out by VAR anyway (the ball had clearly crossed the line before KDB crossed it).

Bit of Anelka's career syndrome if that's even the right word for it, with even less medals, but still what was fairly pacy and strong player, now slowly turns into forever unsettled rebel.
Despite all Inter still is the right club for him, but he needs find that spark from early years. Better hurry up while he's still in his 20s.

I'd feel bad for him were it not for how arrogant he has been. That 90th minute miss is one of the worst I've ever seen. I actually class it as worse than a striker hitting the ball over or wide on an open net (Ronaldo or Yakabu is what I have in mind)
This game was awful, possibly worse because he actually tried and failed so hard.
In the previous game I couldn't believe how bad he looked before he even got on the field.
It was the 82nd minute when he came on....with nothing to lose and he looked absolutely miserable.
Any striker should surely relish the chance for a few minutes to try and nab a goal and be the hero.
He looked like he was worried about being blamed for the result.
Something is very wrong with him, and I don't think it is a physical problem.

I hope the thread title ends up like my Bale thread 
I Never wanted him at united. I’m sure that most match going reds were chuffed when he left as it turned out he was also a trouble maker and was never an elite footballer even though he could grab goals when the service was right.
Certainly his time at United is not fit to be mentioned in the same breath as Andrew Cole!
I definitely didn’t want him as captain!

If you're as good as he thinks he is, it doesn't matter if you're not match fit.
Scoring goals is like riding a bike, and this guy ain't it.

I made a song commemorating Lukaku and Belgium's exit.
"Ten green bottles sitting on the wall, ten green bottles sitting on the wall, and if Lukaku struck a ball trying to make one fall, there'll be ten green bottles sitting on the wall"

Perhaps It's the luck and curse indeed, but it looks like he's devoided of taking any fun from what he's doing. In many cases he lets the ball hit him more than smashing it like a proper power striker.
Still amazed we got most of our transfer fee back.
He's in big trouble legacy wise
Yep and what’s even more amazing is the fact Chelsea then decided to part with the best part of £100m to bring him back there.
Resembled a player who's lacked that real sharpness needed. I think overall some of the misses are bad but some are ones where the Croatian team failed to defend I'm specific instances where the defender is in a favoured position and it requires Lukaku being reactionary as opposed to anticipating the opportunities.
