Football is a game of fitness and endurance, not a test of strength. The players who pile on the muscle end up impairing their ability and also putting a lot of stress on their bodies. Look at that thick lump of shit Kompany. He’s ruined his career by becoming too heavy and £#%&!ing up his body.
Vanity. It worked for Ronaldo so now everyone is at it, ignoring the fact Ronaldo's natural talent alone would have taken him far ahead of these guys.

Probably more to the point but Ronaldo actually did a lot of running on the pitch to keep the bulk off!

played great against arsenal. decent finisher, good running onto the ball, does will with assists but his hold up play/first touch is embarrassing. also seems to struggle with the concept of offside.

lukaku with the ball played in front of him - ok.

lukaku with the ball played to him, behind him, etc - dogshit.

solution: play the ball in front of him.

He's shite in the air too, just can't judge the flight of a ball or time a jump and for such a big unit he wins few that go physical

Ronaldo was also a naturally skinny bloke who added muscle. Lukaku had enough natural power by the time he was 16. He’s the last guy who needed to add anything.

Absolutely this.

Ronaldo needed to bulk up. Lukaku needed to sharpen up. Simples.

Solution: £#%&! him off to a team that deserves him (Newcastle for example)

£75m was it?

I normally back players to the hilt, but after the initial honeymoon period (first 10 games or so) even I was querying if he was actually a footballer. I've said it many times, i've never seen a worse player score so many goals. And he doesn't even do that anymore.


Occasionally useful to bring on from the right hand side, but he won't settle for that. Will hopefully be sold in the summer.

Can’t believe we let Fellaini go before this lump. At least he’d have turned up for the cup final.

It's actually £95mil plus 20% sell on fee. ( £75mil guarantee, with £20mil realistic ad-ons, like x mil if utd finish 4th/win shit)

Lets not go too far now. We had 5 years of Fellaini and each one was a sea of depression

RL should’ve been £#%&!ed off after that. The @#%&!s long since jumped the £#%&!ing shark.

Jose was new & Lolkaku was his no1 choice. Chelsea vomited at the asking price so we swooped in like white knights.

Basically got conned by scouse used car salesmen.

We'll get £50mil for him hopefully.
