Lukaku

Say what you like about him, but he is a world class CF.

With all the talk of Haaland and Kane, it really highlights what an error it was letting Lukaku leave.

Don't worry.

United will bring him back in about 8 years.

Hard to credit United could quite easily have had a front line of Lukaku & Depay - and someone like Cavani for that extra razzamatazz. But no, gotta try and prove that the academy ain't busted .........

"He is far better than any of the forwards we currently have, and better than anyone we will realistically sign to eventually replace him."

Far better than Cavani? Give over.

Lukaku is far better than Cavani!! Please stop this nonsense. He would score as much as Cavani if not way more if he went to the French league, this is not even debatable. He also scored for us. Style of play another debate.

Lukaku better than Cavani? Now that is nonsense.

It’s an argument now but at their peak Cavani wins hands down.

Still think a fully fit Cavani is a better player.

And comparing them on the assumption that Lukaku would score in France when Cavani actually scored more in Italy is a bit strange also.

Why would I be making an argument at their peak. I am making an argument on them now, and right now Lukaku is much better!!! Anyone that wants to argue this needs help.

He also scored more on what basis?? Are we comparing them on their first season in which case you are waffling, or are we comparing the 8 seasons Cavani had there compared to Lukaku's 2??? In which case how does one make a fair comparison??

He has scored more because he played there 8 seasons compared to 2 for Lukaku. Surely this is not difficult for you.

Oh, goals is the sole success criteria for a footballer, makes sense.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It is the currency of the game. Please don't act here like Cavani is amazing at hold up play or something. Excellent movement in the box, which he still has. There are other areas he is not even comparable to Lukaku as he is showing us for Belgium right now.

No he's not,. At the end of both their careers
Cavani will be held up as the better player.by far.
Wake up and smell the coffee.

Absolute nonsense to come to this conclusion. All of a sudden people want to act like Cavani was always rated in this country, even bloody Zlatan was questioned in this country prior to coming here.

Utter madness to say by the end of their careers Cavani would be viewed as by far the better player. Lukaku from what I can see still improving

Mm. Absolute nonsense and utter madness to suggest Cavani may be better than Lukaku.
Could be a bit OTT, it would at the very least be worth a debate.

lukaku world class? lmao

good striker, looks better than he is in a sheeeeit league.

internationals - belgium are stacked

he couldn't deal with the pressure at aa big club, he is technically poor and was lazy for us too.

we have done ok without him - we need a long term striker but lukaku is nowhere near what we need

This statement above is utter nonsense. A self respecting person would ask for the above to be deleted. What would be worth a debate is Cavani would be better but ' better player by far.' Utter madness, we are talking about cavani here not messi
