Is Lukaku a centre forward?

[Bruce Wayne]

He's only 21 so hopefully has a lot of improvement in him. The great thing is that we've secured his services so that improvement can come with us.

 

[SpurtingLesbian]

He's a Goalscorer, stick him up front near their goal and give him the ball.

couldn't care less what number he wears or what antiquated category of player people try to pigeon-hole him into.

 

[Groucho]

I see some have already mentioned the Arsenal game where he switched position.

A good option to have, and excellent when used correctly but I'd still use him as a centre forward, either on his own or partnered.

I'm not trying to pigeon-hole him mate, it was only a lead in to a discussion about his qualities as a player. A full discussion of his attributes wouldn't fit in the thread title, believe it or not, so I used a position as shorthand.

Quite a few times last season we stuck him up front near the goal and tried to give him the ball but he didn't score.

Hernandez is completely different to Van Persie who's different to Lukaku who's different to Suarez.

Who's different to Kone.

Who's different to Kone.

Three of them are goal scoring world class forwards.

The other one is Kone

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Our best game last season was when he played on the right against Arsenal and cut in, so we should use him as an inverted right winger from now on. (whatever number the hipsters decide that is)

Just spat coke everywhere.

Why don't we give Kone a few games and a few more minutes than the 2 you're assessing him on before writing him off as a goalscorer for our team. Barely had a kick for us and has been ripped apart since his arrival. Madness.

120 against Stevenage is all the Kone I ever dream of seeing chum

[degsy]

i) he better be for 28M

iii) bit of a daft question really

i) Lots of players cost loads of money, regardless of position

ii) Fair enough, though I think he's better playing behind Naismith than vice versa

iii)How so?

 

[Prevenger17]

Yes, I believe he is. I think we can confidently lock this thread now.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Surely this question can be answered by both FIFA 14 and Football manager.

Turns out he's a striker
