Tbf his contention was if a team built around him they'd win the title and Inter did do that and won the title. I don't think that's true with Chelsea because City and the RS are too good, but falling short of two of the 3 or 4 best club sides isn't really that bad.

He's only done the business at 1 of 3 big sides and that one was in a league where Juve finally decided to turn a bit plop.

Football is a team game mate. Especially modern football where there are literal super teams.

You've listed a lot more trophies, especially international there, but also have to remember he was extremely loyal to a pretty average Fiorentina side.

It might be a team game but someone with Lukaku's goalscoring talents, with the moves he had available, will likely look back on his trophy-less cabinet and wonder what could have been.

Sure, that's a different thing from "football people shouldn't remember him positively" (I know that's paraphrasing)
 
Probably not. I like to see our team score through a variety of players, a la Saturday, even DCL may struggle to get back in……

Oh I forgot you're one of these guys. I'm honestly just going to ignore this thread. Too many insecure people who hate Rom because he rightly told them that their club isn't up to his level.

The club isn't up to his level??? we are the 4th most successful club in England and at the time of playing for us he had won nothing and since then has struggled to show a good level in our league.

Don't disrespect our club for the sake of a player who didnt respect us - you are not an Evertonian
