Romelu Lukaku

[Blusan Alamb 295]

Jose Mourinho has revealed how Manchester United’s spending power rather than any personal relationship with Romelu Lukaku enabled him to beat his former club Chelsea to sign the prolific Belgian from Everton this summer. 

Mourinho said: “I don’t think it was my influence, no. I think that we paid the money that Everton asked for and we paid the player the wages that his agent asked for and we paid the agents the commission that they asked for.  I don’t see another reason.”

Celebrated against his old club like he scored the 90th minute Champions league winner.  Class A cunt.

Has made a very very good start to the season, can see him scoring 30-40 in all competitions honestly.

Well, they were booing him before the goal. Don't boo a giant angry striker before the game is finished.

Say what you want, theres no justifying that in my opinion.

Probably, but if I got booed I would most likely do the exact same thing. Half of the Everton fans were always against him and look where they are now without his goals. He scored more by himself than their entire team this season.

He is being assisted by great players, coached by two times CL winner manager and plays in one of the biggest stadiums with huge support.

Today he just proved how small he actually is despite his size.

Dude, I didn't mean he scored the goals by himself, I just meant he has scored more goals this season than the entire Everton team combined - which is a fact. Also, coached by a two times CL winner who almost got Chelsea relegated. He's scoring goals despite Mourinho, not because of him.

Not in his second season. You should know by now how Mourinho's second seasons are.

I actually think Lukaku is saving Mourinho's ass. He's the one type of player they needed to become title contenders again. He decided several games they would have eventually tied or lost last season. His speed gives them an extra weapon they didn't have with Zlatan and the way he attracts multiple defenders gives the rest of the team more space. His all-round game seems to be a-ok as well these days.

If a manager spends so much money on a player, that kind of performance is expected. Also they could have lost points because he missed a penalty. Again.

It might be expected but you still have to make it happen as a player. And that penalty and the couple of chances he missed (he always still scored in the same game) were the only negative points in his performances as of now. He's literally scored in every match (correct me if I'm wrong) for them. What more can he do?

He could have stayed a bit calmer after scoring a meaningless goal against his old team. Not every Everton fan booed him did they.

Everton payed big for him and gave him a second chance after he didn't believe in himself at Chelsea.

[Laylabelle 9,351]

Still mad how many players Jose didn't want have ended up there with him.

As for the price tag..we paid 50m for Torres and definitely didn't get that worth. He is doing so well for them so far can't see it changing. Or surprised about it

It's a pantomime, I do love how fans are allowed to heckle him as much as they want, he gives a bit back and then fans act all precious that a footballer dares to show harmless retaliation.
