Do you understand what strong means Pure? I meant it in the sense that your bed is strong, presumably. The Brazilian defenders aren’t particularly physical and I’m not surprised they got ‘bullied’ by him. He still didn’t score though

Well, yes.

There's nothing really that wouldn't have improved him over the World Cup for next season. Not saying he's going to turn into a world beater but the experience would've been beneficial.

Is this lad a bit special or what? I think I need to know before I have a go at him.

carry on you £#%&!ing turd

As proved last season and the cup final we are £#%&!ed without Lukaku

We need a more than adequate back-up cos Rashford and Martial are £#%&!ing lightweights

Mourinho should go for Mandzukic. Underrated experienced goalscorer and leads the line really well.

This.

sell him.

Lukaku was certainly no worse in Belgium's defeat than Kane was in ours.

Kane was shit last night, and poor against Sweden. Therefore he's shit, Spurs should sell him.

he's scored over 20 goals for the last 4 seasons. Not sure why you would sell him.

On the surface not great but obviously, Lukaku had a £#%&!ing shocking everton team behind him for the first 3 of those seasons.

So the question is last season, were we not 'playing to his strengths' or did he just go off the boil after a strong start? Guessing a bit of both


If it was a choice, I honestly don't think there's that much between Lukaku and Kane. Kane is probably the better player as he has an actual first touch.

As I said, I think this season will be the real measure of Lukaku. Anything less than 25 in the league is not good enough.

Would never swap Lukaku for Kane.

Simply a better footballer.
