Stingray 9,441 Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Thought he was good today. Very good movement and hold-up play. I know. Mou will bring him like Steve did. He needs nurturing - what he lacks in technical brilliance he has in physical prowess and determination/ I gather Mou knows ... Still .... he is raw somewhat.

Phil Driver 503 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 I feel sure Lukaku will start on Weds v Villa . Mouri_Matic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mceachran 109 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 When he really figures out to throw his size around in the air it's going to be impressive. I remember when Drogba saw that he almost never had to jump in the middle of the field again, he was able to just hold the big CB's off at take it off of his knee and chest. SOO frustrating to deal with as a defender. Hopefully we can see a similar technique developed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ainsley Harriott 2,732 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Fucking beast.. Preformed much better than Ba, he should be our number 1 choice Despiadado.Maleante, sLOVEnian Blue, Badboy and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonaaibosk 191 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 If he gets given a run of games, there's no reason why he can't emulate what he did with West Brom last season. With guys like Mata, Oscar, Hazard, De Bruyne and Schurrle to supply him he'll score for fun robdog and Stingray 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Armour 4,439 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Used his body well to hold onto the ball today. Really unlucky not to score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IkE 267 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 BA never showed nothing really, this guy in 5 minutes was quality and opened the lines.He must be Starting XI vs ManU (remember last year ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 He was great when he came on, but remember he is still young, give him time to develop before we go pining our hopes on them.We need a new forward before the end of the window so him and Lukaku can rotate while Ba or Torres plays the Carlton Cole 05/06 role.

John1611 77 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 How about that for a first touch from him:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hg9W0rlbePAThe talent is there. His first touch will come good. What he seems to be struggling with tbf, is when our midfielders fire the ball at his feet in tight spaces.

Las7 951 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Needs to start against United, scored a hat trick last season against them; only striker we have currently that unsettles opposition defenders; only striker we have that is able to get into shooting positions constantly. Hopefully the fact he was a sub in the last 2 matches means that he is next in the scheme to start a match since we need our striker to do a lot better than Ba did tonight or Torres did against Hull. He did start a lot of games in the friendly matches so he must be raring to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henrique 9,133 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Was Benteke in your thoughts as a striker to buy?He is a great player but he is a great player for a certain style of football. We tried to play a different style of football. We tried to play the way we played against Hull. We tried to play the way we train every day but the good thing from my team today was Villa gave us a different match and we coped with that.Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2399452/Jose-Mourinho-takes-aim-Paul-Lambert-spat-saying-He-reminds-years-ago.html#ixzz2cfbiaU1y Follow us: @MailOnline on Twitter | DailyMail on FacebookBenteke is a the same kind of CF Lukaku is.

Mouri_Matic 560 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 If Lukaku doesn't start against MU I think there is some issue between him and Mou. Surely after 2 horrible performances from our 2 other ST Lukaku should get his chance now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely after 2 horrible performances from our 2 other ST Lukaku should get his chance now?LOL, believe me there is no issue between the two. It was similar to when Lukaku was on loan at WBA last season. He was a sub for the first two league games at WBA then gradually began to start games. Had Mourinho had an issue with him Lukaku would have been shipped out on loan again. Mourinho wanted him here for a reason and I am sure time will prove that.
