Mourinho also knew more about him than us, supposedly, having actually coached him at Chelsea, still made that mistake at United. People are fallible.
Watching him every week for two years definitely isn’t long enough to learn about a player.
No mate Mourinho tried to develop player s game which certainly not his strengths in his career as manager. He tried and failed what conte achieved with th player.
No way he said that
Both points are dumb
For all the hype this thread has gotten in the last two years, he didn't actually do much better than he did in England. A third of his goals came from penalties. Luis Muriel was a better goalscorer than him.
And yet, Lukaku was very clearly the best player in the league
Conte absolutely threatened to drop Lukaku unless he learned to play with his back to goal. Youre talking nonsense if you think he doesnt know how to play like that anymore. It is the number one thing Conte made sure Lukaku had in his arsenal and you're in for the rude awakening if you think he is the same player as he left United. I watch majority of Inter Milan games due to my father being a massive fan.

Little Kai is 6’3 isn’t he?
And will win both cl and pl coming season.Sorry kai alone only able to win cl last season.
I'm not in for any kind of awakening. Neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg if he turns out to be a transformed player. I very much doubt he will be, but at any rate, I don't stand to lose anything on that, whereas the same could not be said of a man who has just spent a hundred million on the player.
You have to resort to personal attacks because you’re called out on the nonsense you posted without substantial knowledge about what youre yapping about. You’re triggered for being called out, so you lash out like a child. Please tell me again how bad my spelling is on a forum. YOUR very cute.
No idea what you're on about but he's still the same donkey who has trouble controlling and trapping the ball, can only get past players when running past them on a straight line and has trouble with dribbling. There were numerous times last season where he looked completely clueless, scored a tap in and everyone was YAY this WHY my LUKAKU is So GOOD. He wont get the same space he did in Serie AYou have to resort to personal attacks because you’re called out on the nonsense you posted without substantial knowledge about what youre yapping about.

I agree. You can literally see on his 10 second second ‘welcome’ clip to Chelsea where he’s doing stepovers that he’s still a donkey. Doesn’t have any finesse at all and frankly as much as people like to pretend you can’t really improve your base level technique and Lukaku never had it to begin with!
Personally I would definitely listen to player predictions from a guy called TrustInJanuzaj.
You have an unhealthy obsession with hating Lukaku mate. He can walk on the pitch and I would still expect you to point and call him a “donkey”.
Anything Chelsea related youre up in arms against, so it doesnt surprise me that you would full heartedly agree. Scouts code and all.

Oh I hate Chelsea but ultimately proved right last season against the barrage of people saying they would finish ahead of Utd! I also happen to think Lukaku is shite based on his body of work prior and at Utd. What he did in Italy is of little relevance to me!
They won the Champions League and two of their players just made the final 3 best players nomination. Im sure theyre crying all the way to the bank with that Champions League Winners money while we finished second!
I don't think it takes Einstein to understand why Lukaku isn't getting much love on a United forum given his behaviour before he left and comments made after he did. He was highly unprofessional.
Sorry to disappoint you but Lukaku’s all round game has improved from the time he was here and with the level of support he will get from his Chelsea team mates would only result to many many more goals for Chelsea, something they struggled to consistently do last season.
The old ones are the best.Original
I’m sure Chelsea football club are glad to have made a fan out of you. Congrats!
We will see. I can say hand on heart I have never seen a player go from the worst hold up play I’ve seen from a striker to good, so if he manages it I’ll hold my hands up and congratulate him as the first player to have ever achieved that!
Alright Rooney!The old ones are the best.
Nope. It's new signing bounce mate if he scored in those fixtures like tuchel s new manager bounce even after winning champions league.
I understand the skepticism and would generally agree that going abroad for a couple of years can oftentimes be used as a way to fool those with a short memory, but I would say that this might be something of a unique case given Conte's hyperfocused training on that particular aspect of Lukaku's game.
He won't fail it just depends on what level he exceeds to. At United he had a decent scoring record and was "very good" in the first season, but he still had the same weaknesses that made United fans not really be fully sold with him. That hasn't changed at Inter. He still has shit hold up play and is shit in big games generally. At Chelsea he'll fit in well for Tuchel, especially in the league as that's exactly what Chelsea needed. A consistent big bodied goalscorer, but he still has the same weaknesses so it's about how to hide those as well as possible.
Against the other top 6 teams in Serie A last year (Milan, Atalanta, Juve, Napoli, and Lazio), Lukaku scored 6 and had 2 assists in 826 minutes. I'd be over the moon if he manages that at Chelsea this year.
Much more logic in that, Tuchel needs a striker who can score, but who will also drag the defence and open the space behind for Havertz, Mount, Pulisic. I think he will try to use him more like that and not like some target man.
The quality at the top in Italy isn't anywhere near the premier league top level. Lukaku had a good record against Milan in his 2 seasons, (4 goals 1 assist in 4 games), 3 goals in 4 games against Napoli, but then pretty poor against Juve (1 goal, no assists and 3 of them losses in 4 games against Juve), just 1 assist and no goals against Atalanta in 4 games.
