Romelu Lukaku

[Carlito]

That's a much fairer assessment, with respect I don't agree with it still and I think discounting the PSG game is an incredibly harsh attempt to keep the big games theory going. Also I would say equally when he goes through anything resembling a tough patch this thread is alive and kicking with lads delighted to point out his struggles.

I was expecting to have to wait another week to get after him again, what with Arsenal's clown college defence, but he really is spoiling me this season.

Back to firing blanks as soon as he faces any decent team @Prevenger17

Without wanting to get into the finer details of your debate, I do feel that when it comes to footballing aspects they both should be respected - to an extent.

Yes you could rightfully say that neither are managing at a high level - well far from it to be fair - but they played at the highest level with the best calibre of player.

The stuff they're saying is neither new or controversial either: it was mentioned regularly when he was here and I am sure it will continue to be mentioned.

Personally, I feel that he's a great finisher but not an amazing footballer. At some clubs (us) that is often enough and he'll be happily lauded for his rate of goals.

Whereas, at other clubs the expectations and requirements are perhaps different, if not higher. I'd have him back here every day of the week, but they want better.

I can’t even remember writing my post mate.

He's so laughably average. And yet, there is an army on here who worship him as the second coming of Dean

Sounds like he wants out already which is predictable. He is not the future for utd, too limited a player. I'd have him back here in a heart beat but no chance of that.

Aye, there's a shock

TR8R!!!!

Weirdly was slated for his shortcomings while he was a prolific scoring Blue.

The festering wound of being a record signing for us.

I would say that was massively outweighed by the adulation he got from us tbh

 

[maccavennie]

Has he changed agents as there seems to be some Italian fella on Sky talking about him every hour

 

[Carlito]

I reckon he'll replace Icardi at Inter, and then it'll be off to Turkey once that doesn't go his way.

He'll be good in the Turkish league. Everyone looks good, because it's gash

So.... turned out well that big move for a complete striker....

The only thing im gutted about in his sale is that we didn't get rashford in exchange. Now there's a proper footballer.

Cart will probably end up 'dominating' the Chinese league within two years. To be fair, I'd do it for half a million after tax under those circumstances.
