He actually says that Ronaldo should stick it up his own bum.

18 games, 14 goals. Romelu Lukaku
15 games, 13 goals. Cr7
14 games, 13 goals. Messi

Lets just appreciate Lukaku. Ronaldo has shown us how hard Serie A can be, it took him over 1 season to get a hattrick and we all know Lukaku would've had a hattrick if it wasn't for his great personality which led to Esposito having his first goal. Everything for the team <3

If you can upgrade the wingbacks and get Sensi and Barella going you will have an incredible counter attack. Lautaro and Romelu combination will get better and better.

This is exactly why I think we shouldn't prioritise on a Vidal/Rakitic/Eriksen. We should go all in on a wingback on the left side and 1-2 backups in the midfield. Big stars can come during summer.

Well, if you want to have 1-2 backups in the middle, you have to aim higher than Gagliardini/Vecino level and you end up with either Vidal or someone like De Paul who is not cheap by the way. And it also makes a difference if you purchase 35m on De Paul and than you have to go with someone like Darmian on the wing.
If you make a clever deal for Vidal for 15m , you have free 20m to use on the wing.

Vidal wants to play. His problems at Barcelona is about playing time.

He can play every match here, no problem. I bet you don't remember when was the last time we could start Brozo-Barella-Sensi, because it was too far away lol.

2 well taken goals. First goal wasnt really luck as he actually scored ala fifa style,second goal was arguable. Nice hard shot but Meret should have done better. Will need him to keep playing like this more consistently to change my opinion of his price tag.

The first goal was the type of finish this club has been unable to make for years. Pick up the ball at midfield, sprint towards goal, and provide a precise, strong finish.

What two stunning goals. I said in FIF Whatsapp group that I'm happy with Lukaku signing if he keeps scoring 25 goals per season throughout his contract given all the off-the-pitch stuff added. He's well underway for that record so far. Attaboy!

Good game. Manolas should've done better on first goal i.e. put Kaku on his right foot instead of his left, but that's not our problem. Looks like he's learned how to properly chest a long pass, finally.

What I love about this guy appart from his performances is his relation with Lautaro. They seem to love each other off the field and that impact their chemistry on the field.

Love how Esposito is always one of the first to congrats him.

Lukaku seems to be a joy to have in a locker room.

Probably his best game so far, turning out to be a great signing.

Why do people always have these unrealistic expectations? 125 goals over 5 years is some legendary shit right there and not just 'happy' level.

The most underrated stat of em all is self confidence.

Good job Conte for making Lukaku a beast.

And we all can see that he can do so much more...

Improving by miles every month. Actually scoring in big games. Starting to shut his criticasters the fuck up. It is easy to see how Conte is driving him to become this best version of himself. Golden duo. And we're blessed with that. It could have gone both ways but thanks to this combo it's definitely going down the right one.

Thank god he's scoring and has acclimatised so swiftly, cause if he had like 4-5 goals and was off to a shaky start of his Inter career I don't even want to imagine the amount of shit the media would throw at both him, Conte and the management for replacing Icardi with the Belgian.

125 is a bit exaggerated indeed, yes. But if he stays injury-free, over 100 goals is nothing extraordinary. He has 16 now. Unless he learns to play as a true target player, then my happiness level won't go down even if his goal scoring record would go down.
