This place is so extreme.
Before your time little lambWhen did we struggle to replace Welbecks goals ?
Thats great, how many of those goals were instrumental in winning major trophies unlike say every single player you nominated above. Mario Gomez had 2 40+ goal seasons in the bundesliga.... is he class? no.Inter Striker Lukaku Has More Career Goals Than Henry, Owen, Rooney & Suarez All Did Aged 26
When he doesn't score, his team will have played whole game with 10 menwatched him second half tonight and he's still horrible... so good riddance.
yes but he is meant to provide a goals baseline leading to a good chunk of points, isn’t he?When he doesn't score, his team will have played whole game with 10 men

You're not quite the full quid are you?How many of Alan Shearers goals were instrumental in winning major trophies ? Is he not class or is this now the latest excuse goals only count if they win trophies ?
Interesting.Quite the contrary, he's generally being slagged off for going missing against a decent team again. Inter are learning. He's a great player for finishing 6th in the league, but he'll never be first choice in a team that wins anything of note.
Nail on head. We can revive this thread for the next 6 years but the reality is this... Lukaku will score plenty, go missing against quality opponents and never be the standard required for a club with serious CL ambitions. Ole was right to sell him, the problem was not replacing him.Quite the contrary, he's generally being slagged off for going missing against a decent team again. Inter are learning.

Thats not the point though is it? No one is proclaiming Lukaku to be great. The point is that he is a very good goalscorer, as proved by his track record. Yes, he struggles against the better teams and is limited. But, how can a 26 year old Lukaku who has scored more career goals than Suarez, Roo and Titi Henry at the same age be shit? Its just blind hate. The reason why? Could be anything. For some reason, people on here get triggered by him. He left, move on.Thats great, how many of those goals were instrumental in winning major trophies unlike say every single player you nominated above.

Maybe if you watch him for the full 90minutes?Thats not the point though is it? No one is proclaiming Lukaku to be great.

Hahaha this place is nuts. First half he's Fat Ronaldo but second he's back to Donkey.
They conceded 3 in the 2nd half and lost the game. When Dortmund threw everything at them Rom had so much space to work and make a difference which made his deficiencies even more glaring because he kept failing. I'd bet my house that Inter forum is throwing merciless abuse his way right now
I was just think the same, one minute he’s being hyped up for winning 4 headers as Inter are winning then 45 minutes later they’ve lost and he’s a big game bottler again.
Only people who miss him and moan whenever he scores are those who don’t watch him play but just the scoresheet.Caught the game. Do not miss him and having to pretend his goals make up for how useless he is when the heat gets turned on. Noticed Inter players sometimes tend to ignore him outside the box unless he's the most obvious pass

It means he is a good goalscorer and we dont have one of those now we sold him
Rashford before turning 22 (season ending as 21 year old as it's hard to get the numbers for mid season), scored 45 goals (for club alone).Thats not the point though is it?

I mean I'm pretty unhappy that he got shipped out as well but if we had an adequate replacement, this wouldn't even be a conversation. Lukaku isn't good enough to be a Utd #9. It doesn't really matter how well he does at Everton / Inter, he had two seasons here under two different managers and couldn't cut it. 16 goals in '18, 12 goals in '19, I think Rashford will top that this season.Just scored over 20 goals a season what a terrible striker
Thank god we have much better goalscorers now
How did he show he was good goal scorer for us, for a limited player he averaged less than a goal every 2 game. 2.28 games per goal is not a goal goal scoring record, especially in this era and also for a limited player. Even if you go by mins per goal, it's close to 2 games a goal.Being a good goalscorer? Yes he obviously showed that for us.
Weird comment.
What do you mean by not being good enough to be a #9, though? United 19/20 is not the same as United 07/08, or even 17/18. Sure, Lukaku isn't good enough to be a van Nistelrooy, Rooney or Yorke. James isn't Beckham, he isn't even Solskjær when he was a winger. Barely a single player in this team is a United player if we compare them with the winning teams.I mean I'm pretty unhappy that he got shipped out as well but if we had an adequate replacement, this wouldn't even be a conversation.

Must be Inter fans too considering they are not happy with his performance.He got no credir for scoring, he got stick for inter conceding?
Some fans our lot.
ThisSelling him was the right decision
Not using the money to buy reinforcements was the mistake
He didn't score....He got no credir for scoring, he got stick for inter conceding?
Some fans our lot.
Whats 60 pages of this thread are about then?He didn't score....
People creaming over Lukaku goals?Whats 60 pages of this thread are about then?
How many post you have here? Probably shitting on how shit he is and how shit jose is for having him.People creaming over Lukaku goals?
Eh? What a great logic. I have most posts as I argue my points when someone challenges them.How many post you have here? Probably shitting on how shit he is and how shit jose is for having him.
EDIT: pop quiz, who's the top poster in this thread with 81 post?
In a thread about an ex player that doesn't even plays for us anymore?Eh? What a great logic. I have most posts as I argue my points when someone challenges them.
I don’t post shit one liners and run away like you do in Ole thread.
If you at least thought about it a bit, you would have seen Haram was the top poster and he was banned for a month.
