I know what you mean, just like bony does at Swansea. Ball sticks when it is played into him and his physicality occupies central defenders every time they challenge for the ball. I just hope big dunc is working overtime on the training pitch, on these aspects of his game.
I can't remember the last player I've watched for the blues who I didn't expect anything to happen when on the ball or around the ball I know he's 21 but I just think he's useless and he's not even looking like he'll prove me wrong
Pure luck that when the ball kept coming back at us because he can't hold play up we didn't concede and lose open your eyes or take the lukaku tinted glasses off
That's ok then he's on fire
We had several players today who were far more guilty of gifting posession to West Ham, half the team probably.
Not being insulting mate you have your opinion yes we were not great today and the ball was given away a lot by certain players but an off day you can accept but this guy is consistently poor and I suspect I expect a lot more from a 28m forward than you do my patience with lukaku stretches from last season when I thought he was an ok lone player but never would I have made the deal permanent and certainly not at that price I wish he'd prove me wrong but I can't see that happening
He has got weaknesses to his game but he has an excellent strike rate, particularly given his age, and seems a nice lad who fits in well with the rest of the team. Despite the price, am very happy we got him as there are few other strikers in the league that I would have preferred that we could have afforded.
