Lukaku and Morata are rotation/bench options at a top club, similar to Giroud. Both we're extremely fortunate that there was a dearth of top strikers in the market that summer. In fact had Ibra not got injured or if Griezmann didn't screw us over, Lukaku wouldn't be here.
Deep in Jose's mind, I believe he knew Lukaku was not at the level of striker he desired or had previously worked with but was keen to mould him into a Drogba/Milito. Jose has gone out of his way to give praise to him and has been oblivious to his poor form. If Lukaku was a £20m signing, I'm absolutely sure he would have replaced him by now but as he was £75m Jose simply has to make it work.
