Romelu Lukaku

[ath]

Well he is a human being, his attitude tonight was disappointing and he seemed frustrated, but that doesn't cancel what he did and showed until now.

When he's wonderful I praise him, when he's disappointing I'll tell it. Good faith.

 

[ElDiego22]

He always look like he need to score to have a good game otherwise he go invisible

Ha, I know. I was just poking fun.

I wanted to comment in the first half that he was annoyingly aggressive towards his teammates (in particular moments with Candreva, Barella, Lautaro and Brozovic) but I'm dubbed as a hater so I didn't want to add insult to injury

Aside from the scudetto battle, media was hyping up Lukaku vs Immobile, but unfortunately Immobile showed him up tonight. Not his best game and tbh it was a dissapointing performance as he didn't do much but moan and waste some good chances by shooting directly at the keeper or defender.

Do you guys think he's tired of his role as a pivot / physical presence on long balls, and that's why he was so agressive toward his teammates ? Like "Shit I'm battling them for 80 mns and that didn't pay, fuck off I give up".

 

[acroMacho]

He was good at involving others tonight, also tried some shots that were not bad, just didn't beat goalkeeper or defenders made a good block.
I don't see him being bad this game.
Compared to Lautaro, he was clearly better this game. Lautaro did nothing.

Lazio midfield is a lot better than Marotta's midfield and costed a lot less. Lazio wingbacks were also better. This match should convince Zhang to think about firing Marotta since it is clear he won't be doing better the the Inter of Spalletti.

Lukaku was okay in the first half, even though his pressing leaves a lot to be desired. Second half was awful, he just can't follow the pressing game at all. He's like a useless pylon there time to time.

What is funny how small amount of shit he gets at FIF for being a complete dick towards his team mates in almost every match. Constant complaining even if he's the culprit like at least half of the time he's whining to his team mates. Be a bigger man for christ sake and take responsibility if you fuck up. And try not to fuck up this often whatever you keep fucking up once in a while.

Disliked his attitude tonight. Yelling at your teamates and pressing the opponents 50% of the time isn't really productive.

Was useless in the last push.

Tonight? Hes been complaining about his teammates not passing to him despite his not being as open as he thinks he is since the beginning of the season.

It felt much more aggressive tonight. He calmed a bit in the second half.

Speaking of whining, I thought Barella did a noticeable amount of complaining/chastising/throwing-hands-up-in-the-air today.

Yeah, and most of that was towards forwards and specially Lukaku for cheating on the pressing. It goes totally on vain if even one guy slacks on that.

His first half "pressing" was particularly ridiculous.

He was standing off while the Lazio defender closer to him had the ball, the ball was passed, a few meters gained and then he starts jogging when it was of no use. He might as well just not run in the first place, getting tired for no reason like that.

Lautaro should be the focal point in those situations. He was deeper today and couldn't press due to his positioning. And Lukaku is probably a better option to start a counter than Lautaro who likes to dance around defenses with the ball wherever he is.

True but Conte used to rely on Sensi for whining.

well, here ends my "FIF Night read." I was thinking that it would make me feel better reading some oppinions about the game, but...yeah.

 

[surripere]

They're all at it now. I blame Brozovic

 

[wera]

As soon as he stepped on the pitch, I knew we would score. He makes us better for sure.

I felt the same way

8 more goals for Lukaku this season and we'll all be on our knees.
