Yes, no one has ever once written on here that we don't need Lukaku and that "without his goals we'd still have finished the season in the same position". I must dream these comments.
To be fair we did only finish one place below 2 years on the run after he left.

Goes to show how futile this whole football thing is really.
 

Remember how we sold our last slotter and it took us years to replace him?

Get what you mean, but would be very cautious about shipping our best centre forward when we struggle to score as is.

agreed, but Lukaku is harder to replace than DCL and was more of an all rounder. DCL is limited in terms of what he can do. He cant finish outside the box and limits our play.

Lukaku was far from an all rounder. He was focused on goals. Hold up play, especially when he was here was poor.
DCL is far more of a team player. Defending during corners, holding up, chasing lost causes.
If he had Lukaku finishing powess he would be world class.

He was much more of an all rounder, not the finished article but we didn’t have to adapt to suit his play like we do with DCL. And Lukakas finishing was head and shoulders above DCL.

World Class ???

So what your saying when discussing two strikers in rom and DCL is

ROM wasn't an all rounder because he scored lots of goals as a striker

DCL is an all rounder because he's a better defender?

Head's fell off here

I mean, he's not necessarily wrong. DCL has a HUGE amount of athletic ability, can jump for days, typically bullies defenders. But he's crap at scoring one on ones. I'd literally put Godfrey at having a better chance at scoring a one on one than DCL. IF DCL kept those same attributes and had Lukakus, usually a world class finisher, finishing ability, would that not make DCL world class?

Lukaku is a world class finisher - yep. That’s what I was suggesting.

Think people are misreading this.
I like Rom and I like dcl. But they aren’t like for like comparisons.

But he hasn't got that finishing attribute though hahaha so it's a pointless comment.

Like saying if iwobi had Messis skill set and ronadlos attitude he'd be world class, he hasn't so it doesn't matter
