Romelu Lukaku

No, he's not the only reason - it's part of it. They were examples, not conclusive reasons. The side have settled as a whole in their style of play.

To Mourinho's credit, he clearly identified that he didn't have the side to play the same way today and took the point. They have played to Lukaku's strengths magnificently - my point is solely that there's a ceiling on playing that way, and you saw it today. You can't play that way and have success against even decent teams, because you need to hold the ball in the final third to prevent a quick, quality opposition from picking you apart if you commit too many forward and lose the ball.

What came first?

You becoming a Tory or hating the likes of Rom?
