Lukaku has scored 101 PL goals vs Bentekes 69 in the same number of seasons.... Not fit to lace his boots bruv.
He scored against Chelsea and ended their season and pretty much gifted us top 4 at that point. Your players on the other hand, seem to bellyflop at the most vital moment, season after season. All of them
I reckon play them both. Kane can fulfill his destiny as the world's greatest player so can drop deeper and start doing it all
All true Tel but ... "While his opposite number on Saturday, Romelu Lukaku, continues to face criticism for his record against the very best, Vardy thrives in these matches. The contrast is stark. Vardy has scored 20 Premier League goals in 39 games against the big six. During that same period, Lukaku has scored only five goals in 40 appearances."
He had the chance of that with Arsenal - we've put him on about £120k a week (which puts him out of Spurs reach but maybe not the others in the top 6 ) - but I think he enjoys being the Big Fish in a smaller pond; guaranteed a start each week if he's fit ... I'm not complaining
I'd imagine his price tag puts bidders off. Once his legs go he is of very little use to anybody. Can't argue with his stats.
Worth a lot more to us than we'd get for him in the transfer market tbf (given the daft prize money for being in the Prem now) ... think he's got a couple of good seasons left in his legs and he'll break double figures in them provided he stays free of injury... Him for a million - Mahrez for £450k and Kante for £6.5m have been brilliant buys in all fairness
We struggled far too often in the season that we finished 6th, to put away the 'smaller' teams. Maybe Rom doesn't blast away the likes of City and Liverpool but we have Pogba and Rashford for that sort of game anyway, but what he does offer us is somebody who will slay the smaller team who park the bus, more often than not. He's about as good as we could have hoped for to replace Zlatan.
Good to see you’ve stopped tying to do the whole wum thing now, Bob, speaking the truth is better suited to ya.
A year ago today, We agreed a fee with Everton for Lukaku. He’s been a great signing for us, The fee we paid for him looks like a bargain now to be honest, I’m glad we missed out on Morata as well.
Still got questions to answer in terms of scoring against the top teams / big games regularly - both at domestic and International level - IMO - never have a bigger opportunity to put that right than today - got a long long way to go to join the ranks of Aguero, Suarez, Costa, Greizman and co ....
