Remember when Lukaku scored this goal against us?

What does it say about Serie A where Immobile is one of the most prolific scorer year in year out, but only can score 3 goals in Bundesliga.

people say Lukaku has improved all he did was go to a garbage league.

It's not a garbage league.
What are the better leagues ? Luxembourgh ? Albania ?
Lukaku has the same style as Kane - tall, big- and Dortmund fried us all summer over Haaland.
What better options are there in the market ?

That is nonsense. Take your tinted glasses off. Is Premier league a garbage league? Lukaku scored 17 league goals at WBA who are a relegation battling team. 15 league goals in his first season at Everton. In his last 2 seasons at Everton he got 18 league goals then 25 league goals. You just seem like someone who has hatred for him rather than actually acknowledging he has improved.

Tbf..Timo's problem is not that he came from Bundesliga.

It's because his mentality is a bit shite, and he goes jelly legs when he has to shoot at goal.

Otherwise he has no trouble coping with the league or getting at the end of chances.

I can take a hunch and say that Haaland is unlikely to face the same issue.

Different league and utterly different players, Lukaku is 28 for a start and already had multiple PL seasons.

 

I do trust some of the opinions on here so we will have to see but I have a funny feeling about this one!

I am excited about the possibility, but with any transfer, you have to wait and see.

Hope Tuchel can further his progression as a player.

The impact he has had on Mount, Rudiger and Jorginho last season is commendable.

I don't see why Lukaku cannot go up a level after joining.

Only concern is he is joining late, and we've got major fixtures coming up right from the start. Little time to settle in.

[Duppy Conqueror 1,494]

Lukaku is the best available rebound after we got rejected for Haaland. 

Lukaku is a whole different animal to the one that left us as a pup. Give Werner time too,if he can find his finishing boots he'll be sensational,no CB can mark him.

Still have a feeling that if there was a right time to bring Rom back it was after we won the Premier League in 2017. Just imagine how different it would've been with him instead of Morata back then. Now I'm a bit unsure but hopefully he does what we expect from him.

Over the years you have been Lukaku biggest fanboy around here. You got your wish. 
 

No hatred from me, I simply will not acknowledge he got better because he went to a weaker league. There is a reason Serie A is known as a retirement league.  From an athletic standpoint the two league is day and night, he won’t have that contrasting advantage in the EPL.

Lukaku is definitely not my type of striker, I have never rated guys like him, Higuain, Icardi, etc.

Who do u rate then?

Welcome back i guess... I hope he comes with the right attitude, mentality and be a team player.  Also if he can bang in a few goals that would be nice.

So please answer what I stated above. He already has proven himself in the EPL. What do you have to say about his goalscoring record in the Premier League?
