Romelu Lukaku

[B17BLG]

Had one shot so far. Still think he will score.

Hmmmmm

 

[mmmmsnouts]

Clearly we've had United off based on that penalty

 

[JimmyJeffers]

How come he thinks he should take the pens? He's always been rubbish at them. Very funny.

 

[hktoffee]

He's always been rubbish at taking penalty but keep getting the ball off his colleagues. At this price he must score if he is taking it.

Refuses to go near post under any circumstances.

Terrible at Penalties, wonder what his record for pens are? Lucky that at united he has players around him who can score aswell and they don't just rely on him

Standard Lukaku performance, but didn't have the goal to disguise it.

I thought he actually wasn't as bad as he has been thus far but still not great.

Including today's miss he's scored 10 out of 15. He also rather famously missed in the Super Cup penalty shootout in 2013 right before he left Chelsea.

How many times did he do this at Everton?

A few good games and goals, and then he would rest on his laurels.

Deeply frustrating sometimes.

Some revisionist nonsense in here tonight.

Cracking slotter. Miles away from replacing him as it stands.

And we all know he is mince at pens.

The difference is he's now at United and has a fit and firing Xlatan breathing down his neck.

It has always been a bit of an Anderlecht thing, but it's worse since 2011. If they get a penalty, loads of times they miss and as a result their confidence is shattered for the rest of the match. The ideal solution is no penalties.

A year back Anderlecht even received the official title of worst penalty team in Europe. This was after a match where they missed three penalties in one game. It's painful to watch.



They've accumulated more than 25 misses in the last 4 seasons or so.

But he hasn't had a few good games. He's just scored as usual.

He's actually due his "1 good game in 10" for United as he hasn't had it yet.

How? Rooney has had a far better start to the season than him. Not sure how that's even debatable - it's chalk and cheese; one goal less but overall performances far, far better.

Three goals in three games. Great start.

Leading the line with aplomb in what looks like will be a side challenging for the league this season.

If his all-round play had been that damaging they wouldn't have scored 10 goals without reply in three league games. It's as simple as that.
