Romelu Lukaku

[BleedsBlue 1,549]

lol if this guy plays for Barcelona,I am certain he will injure Messi in training. He's just so freaking strong!

[Christacinto 137]

He was an absolute nightmare for ManU last night... The way in which Vidic and Smalling were left barely standing on their legs, sweating and panting, in the dying minutes of the game says it all.

Everton actually pressed ManU back to their own goal the whole match, until the final whistle, totally epic!

[Sheva. 5,373]

He got 8 out of 10 from Sky, Goal.com named him as the man of the match:

"A towering display from the dreadlocked one. Tore Vidic a good'un with his pace and power, held the ball up well and set up the game's only goal with the cross to Oviedo."

That wasn't a cross, clearly a mishit shot, because it wasn't the first time he tried to shoot from those angles all game.

He was a presence for sure, pulling wide to receive the ball, and he's just too fast for his size lol. But he did make some frustrating decisions shooting from Sturridge territory.

He should be ready to be our main strikers next season.

I will be seriously disappointed with Mourinho and Chelsea if they go buy an expensive striker when you have such a young talent.

[robsblubot 3,228]

murdered Smalling at one point

yeah...

his ball control right before the cross/assist was top notch! Quick touches, all in control, throwing off the defender completely.

With the possible exception of an unlikely injury-free Eto, Lukaku would've been our best striker had he stayed. So as good the loan move was for him, Mourinho made a mistake.

[Jack Uzzi 54]

It was a 'scuffed' shot indeed. But exactly what he needed to do in that position. Either it's on goal or it goes very dangerous across.

Everton must work on his decision making. That moment in the 1st half where he left Smalling trembling on the ground he should was followed up by a rather weak pass cleared by Vidic whereas there were two Everton players in front of goal. Because of his power he can get in that position every game but must either storm on to the next defender and then pass or go for it himself.

Our very own beast.

[kellzfresh 7,226]

He has to come back next season, he will develop immensely under martinez like barcelona's delefeou, so no excuses anymore.

There is something that all strikers cannot have, no matter how they train for it. It is to put fear into defenders even before the match has begun. Lukaku has this like drogba in abundance.

[Sidzeret 2,257]

Jackson Martinez, Radamel Falcao...No thanks

We should looking at Lukaku here. He'd be better than both of them in a few years time.

We simply can't just give him up for an expensive striker. That'll be the worst decision Chelsea will ever make.

All the more, any more striker will definitely hinder his development at Chelsea next season and I'm sure it'll be better for Chelsea in the long run.

Tbh, can't see this happening. But that's just my opinion. Hope he can prove me wrong.

[johnnythefirst 1,076]

Don't forget Falcao was already 23 before he went to Europe and started scoring. And Portugal might be one of the easiest leagues to rack them up in, once you're playing for Porto or Benfica. Martinez was 25-26. Same story.

Imagine Lukaku in 3 or 5 years.

Falcao was half the player Lukaku is when he was 20.

I'd say he can only get better from now on if he avoids any major injuries and keep this winning attitude.

What so amazes me about this guy is his altitude, his ambition and hard-work.

He's got massive talent, and he puts in the hard work - a recipe for success.

We definitely don't need a lad like Lukaku here, he would never start ahead of such juggernauts like Eto'o; Ba and Torres

Just watch how well Eto'o keeps the ball - Lukaku could never hold up the ball like that. How well Torres links up play and passes. How strong Demba Ba is.

Besides we never create any chances or provide service Lukaku could thrive on, we never score from counter attacks; never score from set pieces; never really need a speedy striker with Lukaku's physical presence.

We also don't want to scare opposition defenses - what we prefer is our strikers to lure them into a false sense of security

Poor Lukaku having such fantastic strikers ahead of him in the team - should be loaned again next season so he doesn't waste his time on the bench watching our brilliant strikers.

Romelu I beg you do the business against Arsenal tomorrow.

All very valid points, but I don't blame our forwards for not winning it today though. We should not be conceding 3 goals against Stoke.

You're acting as if we created plenty for our strikers and they lost the game for us, but that wasn't the case. Our defence let us down today.

[Mouri_Matic 560]

Destroy Arsenal tomorrow please

Please if Lukaku was up top instead of Torres in the first half those two passes by Hazard for which Torres decided not to run for - would have been at the very least shots !

There were plenty of chances which our midfielders were forced to take because our strikers weren't in the box especially in the first half.
