Nic! 301 Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 @Nic do you think he is more of an Adebayor then a Drogba. Also how highly do you rate his finishing ?Between those two, Drogba then. But I think he's more Bent-like. Something between Bent & Drogba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeyserSoze 17 Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 He's neither actually. He's from Brussels, that's a whole region upon itself.No, he's not. He was born in Antwerp (Flanders), grew up in Bornem (Flanders) and went to school in Anderlecht (Brussels). As a result, Romelu speaks fluently Dutch, French, English and more. That's what we call multiculturalism at its best, I guess? Atholy, BlueLion. and Term-X 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badboy 1,526 Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Between those two, Drogba then. But I think he's more Bent-like. Something between Bent & Drogba.Oh so he has bent like movement in your opinion ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atholy 1,293 Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Oh so he has bent like movement in your opinion ?I think it's too difficult to compare him with Drogba, Bent or Adebayor. It's just Lukaku... with his way of moving and playing.Certainly not an Adebayor. Ok they're both tall and black... but there the comparision stops. Adebayor has really thin and long legs which makes him look like an elegant high heel runner .Bent is more in the direction of the way Lukaku moves but still far off. Don't forget we compare a 5'11" & 165lbs dude with a 6'23" & 206lbs massive dude Drogba also is somewhere in the direction of Romelu... but still isn't comparable to the style of Lukaku.Lukaku is more about power. Drogba is more about finesse.Just think of Lukaku as being a massive tank (of a body) who is suprisingly fast, has a very powerful left foot and just pushes his way through the defenders.But still has good technique!! You will be suprised by his quickness of feet and skills for such a big guy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kieran. 6,317 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 I think people are expecting a bit too much from Lukaku this season....I'm expecting around 5 PL appearances this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1chelsea 864 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 lukaku and josh both will get more than five this season that almost depend on cfc selling one or two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jusek 2,031 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Can't wait to see his first Chelsea goal. Hopefully he scores it at The Bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bababoom 4,478 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Played well, he needs to work on his first touch, but i'm sure he will, just like Drogba did when he first came here. Pretty good debut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmax 9,219 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Thing that struck me was that he was so assured and confident. Not a nervous bone in his body. Bulldozing through their defence in a way that would make any battering ram proud. Holding off defenders with ease, always available for a pass and not afraid to take a shot. Can't believe he's just 19. Atholy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMSBlueTiger 15 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Hes got great potential and I was really excited when I saw he had signed because I remembered that he was an animal on Fifa and he scored some great goals in the Belgium league when i watched. I think today backed up what my expectations are of him not just this season but many seasons to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atholy 1,293 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Loan him out in Jan?Don't think so ! Good debut! Good to see he was so confident to demand the ball at any time. Still can do a lot better, believe me !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
