I get the feeling Lukaku is one of those players not fit for the PL but honestly I don't know, he was banging them in for West Brom and Everton.
Either way his United and Chelsea era's were definitely a flop.

Lukaku scored almost 1 in 2 for Man U then went off and demolished Serie A. Any blame for his failure there is entirely on the football club and not the player.
I'm inclined to agree, I should have made it more clear that while his United and Chelsea era's were a flop it wasn't necessarily his fault.
No doubt he'll be banging them in at Inter again.
Solskjaer is the best manager you had since SAF. The harsh truth.
Is Malcolm Ebiowei any good lads
His first spell at Inter, one could see the team was buildt around him and how he plays as a striker. It suited him and helped him get alot of goals. That didnt really happen that much in Manchester United and it certainly didnt at Chelsea.
He is the kind of striker that doesnt carry the whole team, but is a great goalgetter if the team plays around him. Nothing wrong with that, but the style of play was a clear mismatch in England. He will do good in Inter.

Yeah, he has that ability. Nunez is a good player, but he got big shoes to fill. Mane is a great, great player and made LFC so dangerous.
Lukaku....
I think when you look at his development early as a kid its kind of telling as it what kind of player he is. He looked 3-4 years older than his age group and was massive. He could use pace and power to dominate. And in his later years hes somewhat replicated that so that when free to run and use his power he can be effective.
The problem arises when you play teams that actually know how to defend and he cant just break lines with his pace and needs to play between the lines with link up play. He doesnt have the technical ability or agility to do that.
Hes also super unprofessional and seems to suffer from the pressure. In Italy he looked 10kgs lighter than he did at utd or chelsea. At utd he leaked private information on his TEAM MATES, and at chelsea started talking shit mid season and totally derailed their season momentum.
Hes a waste of money.

Hindsight being 20/20 and all but imagine being in Ronaldo's shoes right now.... Yikes. Could've had a sixth ballon dor and a 6th UCL if he stayed put.
You reap what you sow.

Me when palace are on the verge of signing another play ive never heard of : Thats just what we needed.
Can't see sterling to chelsea just dont get it.
Appears the snake was in contact with Inzaghi throughout the entire season to top everything off. Outside a Conte style system he's borderline useless tbh so wouldn't surprise me if he flops yet again.
Hot take: ETH is just another 'yes man' to the Glazers after claiming that shower of shit has "potential" just because they finished 2nd the season prior despite playing with no fans. The moment there's added pressure (fans) United's mental fragility shows. Ole set you lot back seven years by signing awb + maguire.
Congratulations Man U fans with Malacia.
