He’s already thinking of leaving in his second game in his first full season at United? What was he on about, can anyone fill me in? I thought he started well here and even scored two goals on his debut under Jose
Romelu Lukaku | Napoli watch
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
If he honestly thought about leaving after his 2nd game here, i'm not sure what's wrong with him. Certainly not wrong to get rid off him if he felt that way.
A team full of unforgiving winners and Lukaku, who has a big mouth but a shit mentality, would have been a disaster for the latter.

Imagine Lukkau training with Keane.

Keane would fire balls at Lukaku and berate him everytime that he failed to control it which would make everyone else laugh, SAF included.
Jesus wept. Imagine the '99 final with Lukaku up front...
"Beckham with the corner, Sheringham flicks it on, Lukaku fails to react in time before falling over his own feet."
I saw a recent clip from Ronaldo training in Juve, where he fecked up his first touch, he got so angry that everytime the ball boy gave him a ball he kicked out of the stadium in anger 3 times. If that was lukkaku it would be like a infinite loop.

Different era.
As I said above, Sheringham, Yorke were often criticised like Lukaku but that was in the good old days where people seemed to forget the negatives.
Put Lukaku in a United team with a plan and purpose and he'd have done better. On a similar note, if social media had been around 20 years ago Yorke would be slated for being too busy sha**ing Katie Price and not building on his successful first season.
From what I have heard about Henry, he would lose his shit everytime anyone would miss a pass or a first touch, himself included. And if I'm not mistaken it was reported that some players were relieved when he left Arsenal.

Yeah I think eventually even Henry himself admitted it himself and players like Fabregas said it candidly that the whole team was set up to give the ball to him. After he left, they were a lot more freer to play differently and in a way other players like Fabregas and RVP grew into their own. I guess it was similar to when RVN left for us.
There was a period of time that Arsenal team post Henry was playing great stuff but unlucky for them, when they met us we dismantled them in the big games.
That’s not too far fetched. It’s easier to adopt a strong winner’s mentality when you’re around winners.
Hahaha.. Nevermind the fans, he would have been slaughtered by keano himself on the pitch for all the pointing and later SAF in the dressing room. Probably get slapped by our bench warmers as well for all the stone wall first touches.
Nah, we'd definitely twat them. I'd fancy us against against any team that isn't Premier League relegation fodder.
The problem is his mentality. He's given about 5 vastly different variations as to why he had to leave Manchester United,
He likes to talk big, like his x amount of "run through brick walls for Mourinho" interviews, but when push comes to shove he's weak as feck. He would've been found out and eaten alive in that group of players.
I still remember the day the Belgian National team played when Lukaku came off & Kevin De bryune played as a False 9. 
The golden generation would have left with something in their handbags if it wasn't down to Lukaku & his average footballing ability that stems from both his technical and mental ability.

Quote makes sense to me. It's all downhill once you leave Everton.
Yeah no one believes he really thought that I don't think. He's just very bitter about leaving and being surplus to requirements here.
Nobody would put a Lukaku in a United team with a plan and purpose. He'd be too shit for those teams.
Never wanted him here. The only consolation is that he is better than Morata which we would have got if he didn't come.
Well done to Ole for shipping this waste of space out after catching on to his poor mentality.

So true. You must be so angry you're not in CL
He is probably a top 5-10 central forward in the world based on his form for Inter and Belgium.
We do badly miss him even if it didn't work for him here.
People calling him crap has no clue about football or just want to overreact for the sake of it.

Henry leaving was the downhill of Arsenal. Explains why standards dropped when he left.
Sounds like he never wanted to join United. Did it because of the money or because he felt he had no other option.
Can't embed but there's a great video on YouTube called 'Look How Good Romelu Lukaku has Become!!'.
First 2 goals are deflections in and the first 3 chances he creates are awkward 10 yard passes that come off his shin. He looks better in Serie A cos the quality of the league is crap. He gets acres of space where he wasn't getting it before and the defenders are a lot less physical. No surprise he's still largely anonymous vs top teams.

Very, and oppo fans laughing at us doesn't helpSo true. You must be so angry you're not in CL
You can't be serious?
This is nonsense. If he was so average he wouldn't score over 100PL goals, have multiple seasons with 20 goals or be the top scorer of his country which has been consistently in the top 5 FIFA ranked footballing national teams. Also you don't know how teams think so don't assume things.
You sound very bitter. He is SCORING and WINNING GAMES and WINNING POINTS for his team.
He had 1 season where he scored over 20 goals in the league. He averaged 13.6 goals per season
..and you sound like a delusional fan boy who is somehow brushing under the carpet the absolutely terrible performances that we witnessed first hand over two years whilst at this club. He is absolutely bang average and any Man Utd fan saying otherwise either didn't watch our games or is a fool.
Yeh but this doesn't matter because his all round game is excellent...oh wait
Thats still a big if
Lukaku is the prime example of why judging forwards by goal records alone is foolish.
did you have a Lukuku love child for Christmas?
One of the thickest players i have seen at Utd. Zero fighting mentality. Started throwing his toys out when the going got tough. He thinks he is a top forward because he scored some goals against San Marino.
I do wonder what his teammates must think of him, talks too much, cost his team big time in big games (us vs city, Juve and Barca this season) and acts like an annoying sycophant of the manager.

He's worse than average at nearly everything. He must be good at something to get those goals but I still don't know what it is. It must be positioning/movement in the box in some of his games, because in many he was hidden behind a defender. It's not finishing, which varied from mad shit to average.
True. But you wont see people admitting it
Serie A 2019 2020
his goals
2 Genova ( 20th )
1 Brescia ( 18th )
1 Lecce ( 16th )
2 Sassuolo ( 13th ) - one was a penalty
1 Milan ( 11th )
1 Torino ( 10th ) - goal of the 3-0
2 Bologna ( 9th ) - one was a penalty
1 Parma - ( th ) we did not win BTW against Parma home
1 Cagliari ( 6th ) - was a penalty
First 5 he did not score
CL
Slavia Prague 0 - and was worst player of the match
Barcellona - did not play
BVB Home - 0 , he played like shit - was sent to the bench for a 17years old striker
BVB Away - 0 - he played like shit - he has to thank god two times his mistakes have been cancelled by offside ( btw but how slow and bad positioned this guy is )
Slavia Prague 1 - GOOD Match but Slavia Praga is a piece of shit team
Barca - 1 lucky goal and fecked 3 chances bigtime
My feeling is that this guy rates him as a Top Player , believe me it's very far away from being a good proven goal scorer against CRAPPY teams
if we are outta CL , it is is Fault
