All this potential was clearly stored in his dreads. Been largely downhill since then, we should nickname him Samson.

Wiggytop Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 A not so subtle bit of seed sowing, he’s become a joke in my eyes. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hafnia Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 When we first signed him on loan and he had that game vs West Ham he was a great prospect - technically raw but athletic with an eye for goal. For me the biggest downfall for him was his attitude/mindset. He was all about his numbers - he would feast on weaker sides and almost be half arsed if he wasn't getting change out of the big sides. I didn't like him because of his attitude, his interviews wanting away just added to that. this is a player who was the same age as Harry Kane and at the time technically raw like Kane with better athleticism. The difference is Kane had an elite mindset and worked on his game, Lukaku didn't. Yeah his first touch was never going to be great, I argued that he left it too late to improve but the reality is it seemed to get worse. should have been far more than he was and I was spot on when I said he would be playing in a shite league when he should be at his prime.

Newty82 Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 ...seen clips of Tom Davies the other week. THAT goal vs Man City. The one Lukaku followed all the way to the goal line, never seen him move so fast, the ball was literally above the goal line and he still had a go at touching it...tried to claim it too. Cunt.

Absolutely. Remember watching that game with my brother and he said "Fuck, he can't do that. It's his team-mate". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said at the time it was a disgrace, he literally tried his best to nick it and even though I think it went over the line he was pointing at his chest. Imagine trying to nick a kids wonder goal... it really was a social goal too. Sev 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 Yeah Lukaku had a poor first touch but he scored goals with his left foot, right foot, head, one on ones, a few from outside the box (should’ve been more imo) and I think he even slotted a couple of free kicks away as well, and got a decent amount of assists too. I think he was pretty well rounded myself. c1982, StevO, Matt and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post StevO Posted January 31 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 31 This topic has had me thinking of the players we’ve lost in the last ten years. We’ve had some really good talent pass through the club, and we’ve done fuck all with them. It’s absolutely mental.
