The mentality is all wrong. Will never be a top striker. |

I'm no fan of his, don't get me wrong, but he's generally better for them. No goal in eight for us, with two for them sandwiched in. Every attacking player we have is being compromised in this side. |

In fact I think most other top managers wouldn't have signed him. Even Mourinho binned him off once |

They all are. It doesn't need to be mutually exclusive. He's sub-par and being compromised. |

Would love a new manager to come in and put Rashford up front instead. Try and get something out of Sanchez and play Martial every week. Honestly think we could look a different side in no time. |

Part of the problem is he was so much bigger as a kid that he never had to work on his technical skills to gain an advantage. He could steamroll through. That enabled him to be ready for senior football at a young age but the gap between size and athleticism is narrowed and he lacks in finesse and speed of thought to compensate.
I don't think he's lazy. I think he is a just behind the wavelength of his team mates and therefore behind the play. |

The team as a whole is better than it's showing, even if it's flawed. Again, the two aren't mutually exclusive: The side can be flawed but do better. You see what that forward line can do when they have their good spells. That needs to be built in to our play, not just a few reactive minutes when we go behind in games. |

He, genuinely, looked like a guy who had won a competition to play for United. Or that he was signed after convincing Jose he was George Weah's cousin like Ali Dia.
He was that bad. The worst performance I've ever seen from a striker in a United shirt. Should be dropped immediately. |

Four down the middle!!
We have four forwards who all want to play (think they can play) down the middle, Lukaku, Sanchez, Martial and Rashford;
no real wingers; two possible No. 10's one (Lingard) who is all speed and running, the other all skill but no pace (Mata); five midfielders, two tiny, too large, one Scotsman ; five centre backs, of whom two or three seem permanently injured; One defo improving LB, two converted wingers who play full back, one novice RB… and a World Class Goalkeeper! Are we playing up to our potential? |

There are lazy comparisons, and then there are lazy footballers who invite those comparisons. If Lukaku wants to be anything, he needs to develop at an Andy Cole rate & £#%&!ing soon. Being a goal scorer alone is utterly pointless for a side that needs more from every player. He honestly could become a player of genuine note if he wanted, a lot of hard work & top class coaching... but he's basically shown £#%&! all difference since he arrived.
We'd get the same money back for him that we paid imo, I'd be flogging him to whoever will pay it & go looking for someone that can trap a football first. |

As for getting our money back Everton are probably the only team daft enough to spend that sort of money as none of the top teams would touch him, they obviously won't go near him nor would he want to accept that is his level. Probably on £250k a week so no-one could afford his wages at any rate, he will leave as a distressed asset, around £40m and we'll end up subsidising his wages until he ends up playing out his days in the Belgian non-league scene. |
