The greatest strength of Lukaku is when he has space behind the defence, then he is one of the best in the world. But they are using Lukaku as a target man, although he improved a lot, he is technically not good enough for that.

The guy said he's a multidimensional striker these days. So, he should be able to adapt to different circumstances.

Yes, just saw it.

This bit is interesting (cc @Tomo) :

“I am not happy with the situation at Chelsea, that is normal. I think the coach chose to play a different system, I just have to not give up, keep working and be professional. I am not happy with the situation, but I’m a hard worker and I mustn’t give up.”

And then there's also this:

“I really, genuinely from the bottom of my heart hope to come back to Inter, not at the end of my career, but while I am still at the level to win more trophies.”

I don't blame him thinking that, all we do is hoofball from rudiger to Lukaku, highly similar to what we did with Giroud... No chances or goals created from open play, only Jorginho PK or corner/cross

Tuchel needs to change formation and figure out how we attack.

I find it absolutely hilarious that all the talk has been we have to adapt to his strengths and not the other way around or even both parties adapting to one another. With all that talk, you would think Lukaku is Ronaldo or Messi that they have all the goals, trophies to back up their greatness and "force" teams to adapt to their strengths but he's neither like one of them and has only ONE major trophy in the bag. On top of that, this is a fella who said only a few days that he's a multidimensional striker these days, someone who has improved from his days at Inter. So, he should be adapt to different tactical needs etc.

Fine, but what we have now is not tactics. Sorry, but hoofing it up to him and hoping for the best is not something he should need to adapt to, it's the football of League 1 level. We clearly need to get better offensively including final third passing play and transition from defense to offense.

I'd like to get annoyed but I'm not remotely surprised.

He's a brat and pulls this shit off everytime things get tough.

He pulls this shit everywhere he goes including with us the last time.

I'd like to think Inter would resign him but they've upgraded in Dzeko so why would they.
