Romelu Lukaku

[BlueToff]

Personally think Lukaku is better than Kane as a footballer, Kane seems to play with his head down too much for me. And he thought it was ok for him to be taking corners on the big stage.

Hodgson made Kane take the corners like.

I genuinely think him and Rom are pretty equal though.

Lukaku creates a lot of chances for others.

Lukaku is all about pace and finishing, Kane is the more all round player of the 2, he can finish, good with his back to goal, good link - up play, and works hard for the team (so does Lukaku when he's up for it) and his dad isn't a tit!

Not sure on Ibra by a long way, see how he does over a season rather than the start he has had

If Rom improves his touch he could be better than Ibra, all Ibra ever lacked was pace. He is a beast, watch him bully every centre half in the league. He'll score 25+ goals this season.

WTF?! Are you seriously suggesting Lukaku is anywhere near Ibrahimovic? They are totally different players.

You are correct he clearly would've been instructed to do so, but he should've said no I will score the goals. But what do I know anyway!

agree that he should have been stronger in his refusal mind, not that I care given how much of a farce Roy being in charge was

Rom is an average footballer but a top goalscorer. On ability there's several better strikers in the league in scoring there's on a couple

Well considering his job is to score goals I would say he is doing pretty well.

Of course but when you get into the upper echelons of strikers you should expect more from their game

 

[Kev50]

the exciting thing about Rom is that he's got such potential still. I don't mean that he's going to improve much in skill level, I think that will always be average. But we've hardly used his strength and pace at all, just relied on his lethal finishing. If we can get him motivated to do the ugly stuff he will be some player

The echo are reporting he is staying, Koeman had reported told the Dutch press. Lukaku made the decision.

As long as he keeps scoring goals I'm fine with him. I think the rest of the team were a let down last season, and towards the end nobody had any desire anymore. I think Koeman will demand more from Lukaku, he's no soft touch.

The Kane scrutiny

Rom is a GREAT player. He is not the most skilled striker in the world, but in the right team he could bag 30 goals in a season. If Rom isn't scoring at LEAST 15 goals in a season, I would wager it having to do more with his motivation than anything. He is lazy; he needs to fix that.
