True but I think he was referring to Rom’s hold up play from balls fired into him with his back to goal… which earned him the nickname ‘concrete shins’
Would love Beto to turn it around with us, as much as anything for his transfer value AND because we would have to play more balls in behind on...
Lukaku scored many headers for us so I wouldn't say he was poor in the air. His back to goal play was lacking but all other aspects of his game were very good.
Leicester were so bad today they made him look like Lukaku for the first 60 or so mins.
Will never be a world beater but he definitely has fair amount goals in him if used correctly. Hopefully he catches fire from now until the end of the season. Then we can weigh up what to do with him long-term.
I just think had you stuck Lukaku up to the previous season we’d have got top four. The improvement under Bobby was a bit overblown.
Also, once everybody adjusted to Bobby’s style he didn’t know how to adjust himself.
