Lukaku in 2 season with United against big 6: 24 games - 1 goal (against us). This is all you need to know if you are wondering why people do not rate him.

Moriba is ours it seems... He has a great offer from Chelsea...

Michy did it better vs United. Problem with Lukaku is he is not for big moments and big games. His big misses eliminated Inter from CL last season and Belgium from EURO. But I am sure he will score 20-25 goals next season.

With good crosses to them...

On a positive note we will be strong in the air... Kai and Lukaku both around 190cm always in the box... But bigger question is can Chilwell and James deliver?

Impressed by what? Penalties and sitters? Not one single impressive goal. He is more clinical, I give him that. We spoke many times how Werner and Havertz have 25% conversation rate of big chances. Lukaku last season in Seria A and CL: 28 goals from 49 big chances so this is 57%. I honestly expect Lewandowski to be better player in 37 than Lukaku in 32 so we should have spend 120m on him.

City apparently dont want to pay 150m... We should have tried with Zouma+Abraham+80-90m...

With CHO/Pulisic as wing backs 🤤

Tonight in a game we can scout Hlozek vs Tchouameni.

Kai can occupy all positions up front. New striker and Kai would be undroppable so other attackers should be concerned.

Has Simon Phillips ever wrote article that is not licking clubs balls? If anything, these so called Chelsea journalists should write about Chelsea fans outburst about Lukaku rumors.

So club doesn't want to offer big money to Dortmund and be rejected in public. Reports are we will send offer only if we know it's accepted but we got rejected publicly for Lukaku?

Look at this from Tuchel's perspective. He just delivered major success. And club now wants to give him back in transfer window. I imagine he said to them that he wants a top striker. So club look around and see Lewandowski, Haaland, Kane, Lukaku... Say what you want about Rom but he is top5 rated strikers in Europe... Do people really think TT cares about things mentioned like no resale value, price etc... Considering history, what are the odds he'll be here in 2 years? So if other top strikers are not available for different reasons I think he'll be perfectly happy with Lukaku because he wants someone who will give him goals. People attack the board and say if we can't get Haaland don't sign anyone but that would actually be major 'fuck you' in Tuchel's face. Tuchel wants top striker now and he don't care about 99% things mentioned on here. It's clubs job to deliver it to him.

Kane to City, Lukaku to Chelsea also means United have clear path to Haaland next summer. There is also Norwegian connection. But considering Haaland situation next summer makes you wonder why Chelsea and City dont wait for him? Why is no one after Mbappe with just one year left on contract? Because everyone knows he wants only Real and will go there next summer. So it could be that clubs become aware what Haaland wants and maybe he already promised himself to United or Real or Barca...

Announce Hulk.

I don't even trust him with ages. Look at his photos from youth, he always looked 5 years older than anyone else. I watched him live when he was 17. The fucker could be 33/34.

Another good way to score more goals and most logical is to play players who are more likely to score. Werner/Mount last season played over 8000mins combined and scored 17 non penalty goals. Havertz/Ziyech for example less than 4500mins and scored 15 goals. Difference in minutes played is around 3600mins which is exactly 40 games. So if these players continue their ineffectiveness in front of the goal and TT keeps playing them over others he is basically saying: I don't want to score more goals.

Imo we easily have a squad for 85 points without any signing. But I expect City to be around 95. So this is why transfer window is so important now. We need to reach that highest level.

Well, Mount is playing as one of the 3 attackers so he should be compared to Havertz, Werner, Pulisic, Ziyech... He fights for position with them. Even wing backs are more offensive in our system than players in double pivot. If you add defenders on set pieces and Kounde/James bombing forward from RCB role I would say that Kova, Jorginho and Kante are last in the packing order in terms of goals expected.

Lukaku or Haaland they would be number one guy and undroppable just like Kai is going to be. So that is Pulisic, Mount, Ziyech, Werner all fighting for one spot? Plus CHO.

Smokescreen.

Ironically Conte wanted Lukaku 🤣

He is but just like Tammy is frustrating us, it was the same with Lukaku and United fans.

Lukaku is for me similar to Abraham, give him +3000 mins in the league he will give you 20 goals but frustrate the hell out of you.

Strong, tall CM, can bomb forward. Already rated 25m, but just one year left on contract so Barca will lose him most likely. Turned 18 this year. Exactly 3 years younger than Tchoualmeni.
