Lukaku is one of the best flat track bully’s in world football. He punishes lesser teams better than most other strikers in the world and his scoring record reflects that. However his record against decent teams is abysmal which is also shown.

“I bet him he wouldn’t get 15 league goals and I’m going to have to change my bet with him. If he gets to 15 I can change it and I am allowed to do that because I’m the manager. I’m going to make it 150 now. “ Ferguson on Cristiano Ronaldo
It's Zlatan, so it probably isn'tThat cant be real
True. But the reality is we need a flat track bully as we’re struggling to score against the likes of Newcastle, Astana etc.
He barely even scored against that kinda opposition. Remember the comeback win against Newcaslte? Every attack the players ignored him when we were on the counter.
My word those are some brutal stats. Classic Italian game though, Inter stunk the place out and managed to make the most of their limited attacks.
Didn't watch much of the game tonight but I seen the same flaws he had at United, constantly not running into the right areas and not holding up the ball for the likes of Martinez to get close to him.
He looks awful. Started well but has fallen off and has already started to get criticism from Inter supporters. Lautaro is completely outshining him.
I actually forgot he was playing at some point, I thought Martinez was the lone striker.
He really doesn't do well against good opponents
17-year-old Esposito came on and was way more effective.. 85milj..
He’s trash. He’ll score a lot of goals in Italy because there are many poor teams and his few strengths are made for that game.
Absolutely the right decision to let him go, even in our current plight

Very happy the club managed to sell him for that prize.

The Lukaku show of football Horror.
Best United transfer in the summer. Apart from the 85 m we also got rid of the 2nd highest wage from the wage bill
He strikes me as one of those players whose team does well in a World Cup, and then thinks he doesn't have to prove himself anymore.

Bet the Inter fans are happy.
Everton Lukaku was much better than whatever this is. Honestly since the WC he has been incredibly shite. Just sad that we couldn't have lumped him onto Juve instead and gotten Dybala in return and made Serie A more competitive.
Juve are not that stupid. The idea behind their interest was to make life difficult for Inter. Everyone at Inter except Conte thought that Lukaku is overpriced but Conte wanted him at all costs.
We've really robbed Inter. Nice one for a change United.
This is what I don’t get.
Lukaku at Everton was not this oafish, it’s the strangest loss of ability since Space Jam.
He was never a Berbatov with the ball at his feet but he played so into his strengths in his younger days; it’s like the move to United validated him in his mind & he stopped doing the basics.
That stepover was a crime against the beautiful game.
Everton Lukaku was equally trash. He used to have spells of 2-3 months where he would be completely useless every game. People just didn't notice it because he was at an irrelevant club.
He used to be leaner and quicker of course. But the footballing ability was just as bad.
If anyone recalls the Pink Panther films, Conte will be behaving like Chief Inspector Dreyfus about now.
You guys better enjoy it, he will score a couple of goals and you will all receive notifications. And no Lukaku never lost his ablities, he is more or less the same player but now people are actually paying attention to what he does because he played for United and now Inter.
He's gotten fat and the move to United along with the WC to his head. It's as simple as that. He's not a good professional anymore. I think he used to be. But that's that. He still has time on his side, but he's neither improved his technical ability nor his reading of the game beyond the big man thug approach. Send him back to a relegation battler to set his head straight and arse whipped into shape.
He used to have a desire to be better to improve, to be the best he could be (despite limited ability).
Clearly, this all went to his head, he thought he made it, started to believe his own hype (no-one else hyped him), and started concentrating on things other than football (Jay Z). Too much money, too much exposure, appalling attitude, lazy and delusional about his own abilities.
Without effort and determination, all he has to fall back on his his appalling touch and inability to score against any half decent defence.
Thank god he is no longer our problem.
Whoever posted the comment second from the bottom has to be someone from the Caf on a WUM
Tbf Inter played some rubbish anti-football today. Square pass after square pass between their CBs and then releasing a long ball forward. There was this stage of play where Godin and De Vrij exchanged like 6 passes between each other while standing only 5 yards apart before squaring it to Skriniar who lumped it forward.
But his presence on the pitch takes attention off Martinez and allows him more space to operate. Defenders are actually wary of the goal threat he poses.

Careful posting that, Rom will probably post confidential Inter player information to show how he has the best control on the PS4.
I get if some people are complaining about not replacing him. However, there are some people in this forum are actually arguing about us selling Lukaku because he's good enough. Horrendous!!
That Esposito control was incredible when he came on. We need a gif of that.
This is Lukaku though. I remember when he played for Everton while on a good run of goals he was supposed to tear us a new one at Old Trafford and he didn't get a kick, he had a very similar game to tonight.

Why does this thread look like it's only bumped when he doesn't score in a game ?
Anyway with all his deficiencies he scored 5 goals in 8 league games for them. We as a whole team scored 10 goals in 9 league games so far.
Still a crap decision to sell him without replacement.
