Cannot hold the ball up for toffees. Even Eriksen is better at that, let alone Kane.
He’s awful at almost everything. Nowhere near good enough for United and we should look to upgrade in the summer.He's awful at holding the ball up
Agreed. Lukaku just gives up too easily.Kane plays a different sport to him in regards to hold-up play.
Lukaku just doesn't impose himself enough.
Best believe we have a problem if the guy leading our line can't get the ball to stickfeck off, Lukaku is not the problem.
Pogba, Sanchez, Martial, Matic, Lingard. How awful, poor guyHe's not played well but my word, he's got poor working conditions.
Just because one is better than the other doesn’t mean that they can’t be compared.Stop comparing Kane and Lukaku. Kane is on a completely different level
The question is if we need someone better to lead our line. Kane simply works harder than Lukaku too.Stop comparing Kane and Lukaku. Kane is on a completely different level
You could play another three attackers, it wouldn't matter - we've surrendered the midfield area.Pogba, Sanchez, Martial, Matic, Lingard. How awful, poor guy
True, that's insulting Kane.Stop comparing Kane and Lukaku. Kane is on a completely different level
It amazes me how people can't see the obvious problem is not the attack, it's the midfield where we are being overrun...Best believe we have a problem if the guy leading our line can't get the ball to stick
You could say that about all the lethal goal scorers.If the team doesn’t do anything for him, he doesn’t offer anything in return. Runs into offside multiple times, loses duels, looks half-assed, slow on the turn and not interested in chasing defenders. Limited player - and he doesn’t score enough goals either.
And he plays 90 minutes. Every single game.
Still, when he does get those scraps, he doesn't distribute the ball well, he's slow on the turn because of his size/weight, he's predictable with his touch, turn, shoot - hence they mostly get blocked by defenders, he looks to me like half the player he is when he's not feeling like the best player in the team.It amazes me how people can't see the obvious problem is not the attack, it's the midfield where we are being overrun...
Lukaku has had nothing but scraps to feed of. Likewise Sanchez and Lingard. Martial has had the best service.
Suarez could MAKE things happen and even started attacks and created chances without serviceYou could say that about all the lethal goal scorers.
Yep, was the best of an abysmal lot last summer. Maybe we should have gone for Auba, but from what I heard he wastes a lot of chances as well and would probably be invisible for us in games like these.I'm sorry but he's just not world class. Can you imagine any of the top teams having him as their main striker?
To an extent - but some players are perhaps more adept at dropping back into midfield (Rooney being an example), some strikers excel on movement and make it a lot easier for midfielders to provide them with service, while others are perhaps so skilled on the ball they can compensate for poor service when they do get it.You could say that about all the lethal goal scorers.
