We need him to score goals consistently , he does t do that.

Yeah Robb I have been his biggest critic over last few weeks in particular but he did his job today. His overall play was much improved and we attacked as a unit well because of it. We just couldn't hit a barn door today. The finishing was abysmal and none of that was on Lukaku.

Lingard Martial and Rashford all have to score. No excuses. Got what we deserved.

Oh dear here they come, should have had a hatrick of assists today though

why dafuq did rashford stop running when we was on the counter attack, if he was going to waste time why didn't just run to the corner flag.

Being 19 most likely. He's still learning and nowhere near the finished article.

Rashford came on, played 15 minutes without a marker and made a terrible decision every single time.

His pass to lingard was sublime.

Yeah I'm not saying he didn't. He's 19 and out of confidence and form. It happens.

I had people in the stretty telling me Ronaldo would never make it big at that age. Too much of a show pony and not enough end product. Now I don't think either will be that good but both still kids really. 19 and 20. That's nothing.

i get the feeling he's got a bit of the januzaj attitude about him

Agree to a extent about his age but since he broke through those things such as decision making, composure etc have gotten worse with him which is a bit worrying, no way am I saying let’s give up on him but a bit worried him turning into a bit of a headless chicken type player as he seems too obsessed with his pace and not much more

He's not a winger either funnily enough. Poor management of him

Lukaku played very well. Great passes to Martialw and Lindgard. Both should have been goals. lindgard miss is one of the worst I have ever seen. But I digress, that Lukaku pass to Lindgard was sublime. Reminded me of Berbatov's passing.

he's always been a winger, even when he was in the u18

Lukaku's hold up and link up play was truly excellent last night.

Let's hope we see much more of the same.

I guess people are forgetting the chance that lukaku failed to capitulate on..
A chance that any decent striker would have buried.

Oops.
The one where lingaard played him through and he couldn't control the ball....

You’re forgetting that he didn’t actually touch it

Maguire took it away from him before he could.

And that refers to the one Lingard played through

Watch the replay. Maguire intercepted it

He didnt touch the ball because he couldnt control it.

Lukaku had his best game for us last night in a while but any top striker will bury that chance.

Not sure how you can defend it really.
Our whole front line were poor in front of goal

The ball was played through to him but before he could touch it Maguire intercepted it and it went straight through to the keeper.

Watch it again

Cant find a vid anywhere..
Got a vid ?
