Romelu Lukaku

Still clearly a fine striker suffering at whatever has gone on at Utd. His record is still pretty good but regardless it's not like players like him, Sanchez etc just became poor footballers.All that being said I'm not one for going back and it rarely works out doing so, but I hope he goes somewhere he's appreciated and does well because he was a good player for us and I enjoy watching good players

I mean do you not want him to score against these crap teams or what, Not sure what the argument is here.
Only scoring against what's in front of him.

That's just it - he doesn't.

Take the World Cup as an example. He nets four against Panama and Tunisia, then doesn't for the rest of the entire tournament when he's up against the likes of England, Japan, Brazil and France - obviously far superior teams.

He's the definition of a flat track bully. Goals against crap teams doesn't tell you anything, so that's why I'm simply laughing at that JimmyK fella for honestly thinking it's a reflection of anything. Indeed, he'd have been much better served pointing out his truly excellent performance against Brazil in the World Cup - one performance alone that eclipses scoring ten past a bunch of glorified pub footballers.

I mean I don't disagree with any of it, Just find it silly he gets beaten with the "only scores against crap teams" like it's a bad thing to have
 
Left us to "win trophies and write a CV".

Has failed at United no matter how you spin it and is having to go to Italy with his tail between his legs. Sure Inter are a massive club to play for, the stadium is iconic and the money will no doubt be good but fact is he won't win F all out there. He'll be out of sight and out of mind, no longer talked about as one of Europe's most fearsome centre-forwards.

Utterly screwed himself.

Remember a Kopite mate complaining a few years ago that they only failed to win the Prem that season because they hadn't beaten the "crap teams".

I wouldn't have been better served doing anything, or honestly thinking anything was a reflection of anything else. I'm laughing at you for taking my decision to post a random stat they had seen on twitter and had no idea if it was even true as some sort of personal affront that needs to be quashed though, so cheers for that.

I think Lukaku's a pretty good striker and is sometimes a little bit over maligned. I didn't realise he'd slotted your mrs though in my defence, otherwise i'd have kept quiet.

He'll count a Cup Winners medal as a result there and may do the same at Inter. Annoying player but he'd have got 15-20 for us last season.
