Which genius thought up the Smalling one?He's right, there are many idiots on here. I mean calling Lukaku a donkey, or comparing him to playing Smalling up front, is idiotic.

Some people just look clumsy without actually having shite technique. I've seen plenty of Lukaku, and whilst I concede that he needs to work on his consistency - I also would like to point out that he is very good with the ball at times. Excellent even. When you factor in that he shields the ball well. He's very mobile and very athletic. At times players just bounce of him. It doesn't look aesthetically pleasing but it sure as hell gets the job done. Very well done.You can see in this video how little control he has when he is trying to move with the ball, it's like he's fighting to keep it within touching distance.
Scores bags of goals for Everton and WBA but wont with much better players? Sound logic.Disappointing. Not a player who has shown anything that suggests he can lead a league-challenging side or do anything in the CL.
For £75m, you might as well add a bit more and go for the world beaters.
Lukaku has it all to prove here.
Top scorer with a caveat, he actually played all top 6. Since Everton aren't part of the gang.How did Lukaku fair against the big 5?
Only 4 players scored more versus top 6 teams last season than him, so not bad at all. Vardy, Hazard, Sigurdsson, Alli.How did Lukaku fair against the big 5?
Not officially, but it seems to be a done deal. Just need to agree personal terms I believe and then the medical.Has this been confirmed yet? Are we being used by Riola as leverage against Chelsea?
He doesn't just look clumsy, he is cumbersome and doesn't control the ball when trying to move with it, it's why Blind tucked him up with ease, and yes he's awful to watch, effective at times for sure, but that's not enough IMO.Some people just look clumsy without actually having shite technique.

Indeed. Blind s intelligence on and off the ball is second to none on our team - him silencing Lukaku is more a credit to him than it is a slight against Lukaku.Blind has kept the best strikers in England quiet, just because Lukaku couldn't get by him doesn't equate to bad technique.
He fecking rinsed City at times last season ffs.
Creaming myself listening to this interview. Can't wait for him to sign!
Yep.Indeed. Blind s intelligence on and off the ball is second to none on our team - him silencing Lukaku is more a credit to him than it is a slight against Lukaku.
Ridiculous. This is clumsy?He doesn't just look clumsy, he is cumbersome and doesn't control the ball when trying to move with it, it's why Blind tucked him up with ease, and yes he's awful to watch, effective at times for sure, but that's not enough IMO.
We need a winger as well. Can't rely on Martial or Lingard for another season and hope they come good.His technique isn't as bad as people make out. His first touch can be dire at times, but that can be worked on. He's strong as feck, throws defenders off him for fun and is quick. If we get Martial etc. performing to the level they can, playing off Lukaku's strength, we could mount a proper challenge.
Just need to sort out the LB position, whether it's Shaw or a signing and get a DM in and we're set.
I've seen this goal thrown up proudly before like it's some example of great technique, he looks like he's stumbling over at least twice and lollops into the box and finishes well, it doesn't disprove anything, he's clumsy and cumbersome.Ridiculous. This is clumsy?
A goalscoring winger would be perfect. Just don't think anyone is available.We need a winger as well. Can't rely on Martial or Lingard for another season and hope they come good.
First, if he's clumsy and can score that goal, why can't other normal non-clumsy players not score similar goals? Second, the point of lukaku is not to be a twinkle toe dribbler. He's a powerhouse that bangs in goals.I've seen this goal thrown up proudly before like it's some example of great technique, he looks like he's stumbling over at least twice and lollops into the box and finishes well, it doesn't disprove anything, he's clumsy and cumbersome.
To me, Martial has goals in them. I would like an assist machine as a winger. Someone who can make chance after chance for Lukaku.A goalscoring winger would be perfect. Just don't think anyone is available.
There are plenty of players that could score that goal, it isn't remotely unique or special. You're right he's isn't a twinle toe dribbler, he's an ugly battering ram striker, the type I hate.First, if he's clumsy and can score that goal, why can't other normal non-clumsy players not score similar goals?

I don't care as long as he scores 25 goals in the league for us, which he most likely will do.I've seen this goal thrown up proudly before like it's some example of great technique, he looks like he's stumbling over at least twice and lollops into the box and finishes well, it doesn't disprove anything, he's clumsy and cumbersome.
This is what people are failing to understand. We have enough ballerinas in our team. Martial, Mkhitryan, Mata etc. are all technically very good and look where that got us last season. Lukaku bulldozes his way to the goal.First, if he's clumsy and can score that goal, why can't other normal non-clumsy players not score similar goals? Second, the point of lukaku is not to be a twinkle toe dribbler. He's a powerhouse that bangs in goals.
I'll remember this for when he bangs in a vital screamer against a rival. Lukaaaaakuuuuuuuuuuuuuuthe type I hate.
Yeah but I think it would be for the greater good if we get a striker that gets us goals rather than a style that Devil May care on redcafe does not enjoy watching.There are plenty of players that could score that goal, it isn't remotely unique or special.

I think he does too, but he needs to find his way again. Hopefully he rebounds nicely this season.To me, Martial has goals in them. I would like an assist machine as a winger. Someone who can make chance after chance for Lukaku.
I'd rather we got a striker that can score the goals, is good to watch and actually has the ceiling to make us CL contenders, Lukaku can't provide either of the latter.Yeah but I think it would be for the greater good if we get a striker that gets us goals rather than a style that Devil May care on redcafe does not enjoy watching.
They are just run of the mill goals in a meaningless game, the first one being a huge goof from the keeper, I hate watching strikers like him play football in general, they mess up fluid football with their limited technical ability.
So you hate these type of goals?
Well with all due respect, who cares what you hate? It's not relevant to anything and it impacts Manchester United, Lukaku or the rest of us not one iota. If he scores, he scores.There are plenty of players that could score that goal, it isn't remotely unique or special. You're right he's isn't a twinle toe dribbler, he's an ugly battering ram striker, the type I hate.
They are just run of the mill goals, and I never said I hated goals, I said I hate how he plays football.
If you hate these types of goals then I don't know what to say.
How can you eve say that..They are just run of the mill goals, and I never said I hated goals, I said I hate how he plays football.
Because they are, they are just finishes that you can see from lots of strikers all over Europe every weekend.How can you eve say that..
