That's just an outright lie isn't it? I mean just do a Twitter search for "Lukaku" and "waste" and that disproves that immediately.

What is it about Lukaku that enables people to switch off their brains and rewrite history? It's proper bizarre.

Look and you win find.

Are you really surprised in the entirety of the world there isn't someone who shares your opinion if you explicitly search for it

You don't happen to work for a polling company in the US by any chance.

Rewrite history. He scored 25 goals last season in the league for us. He was boss and our best striker since Lineker.

Because he doesn't work in general play to help create them.

He's had one good game, at last, against a good side. Let's not get carried away - he's been lacklustre for a reason.

The onus is on Lukaku to do now what he's never been able to do - put in performances like that consistently.

Incorrect. The main reason United don't create chances and struggle against the top sides is because Mourinho has so little interest in attacking against these sides and has persevered with Martial and Lingard in so many games this season despite their inability to create consistently.

Even today, the service wasn't great and I don't think Mourinho deserves huge credit for the win. It's Lukaku's finishing and a great bit of individual play on the wing that's got United a huge three points.

Your friends sound clueless to me pal.

Lukaku is a different player from the one we signed in July. He's improved every month and since that City game on the tailend of Novemeber he has been superb. Notice output from Lingard/Martial this season he has also improved those around him something Zlatan didnt do last season.

Very interesting to read from someone who watches him every week.

It was clear he's improved on Zlatan considerably (proving wrong many of his most prolific critics on here), but that really is telling.

Mourinho is a little bit like Big Sam with better players now. I think he knows he can't coach a team to beat the likes of Pep etc so just sets up yo disrupt and hopefully one of his talented forwards will do the job for him.
 
Lukaku 24 years old, 98 (I think) premier league goals.
If he stays in the league for 6 more seasons there a good chance he will be in the top 3 premier league goals scorers OF ALL TIME.

let's just leave it there.

That may be the case but doing that in itself is very difficult to coach into a team.

Hahaha... yes, it's everyone elses fault when he's bad, and it's only because of him when he's good.

Classic.

That's not what I said. I said the main reason was Mourinho's approach. Something that is very clear to anyone who's watched United in these games. Is Lukaku blameless? No. Has he been anything like the main culprit? Not even close.

What you said is it's all Lukaku's fault. Typical of you in this thread and also utterly wrong.
