Lukaku signs for 75m

Nope. Only real negative about Lukaku is his record against the top six. It's close to shit.

Can he do it against a proper defence? Anyway, we need more than Lukaku, if this is all he brings in terms if firepower, then it is poor and it won't work because we are losing Zlatan.

Absolute guarantee that we will becomes a set piece team. Skillful players have been de-skilled, marginalized or dropped into anti-football, Jose positions. Effective but nor progressive.

If he hits even a few of these I'll be happy, fuck me, I was uploading this for a laugh but got nostalgic, I even forgot some absolute bangers there, like world world class complete whoppers, hope people don't forget the numbers and overall performance declining and when they do remember it's not just that he used to score more,

I hope they'll remember the volleys, chips, lobs, something out of nothing, even that one he goes down looks scruffy until you see the repeat and go fuckin hell.

Even when he was getting dogs abuse in the latter years, that turn and volley against Villa and half way volley against West Ham, I honestly think yes no doubt he dropped off but I also think since Fergie decided he was finished with him and he had enough replacements, that aided his decline, Moyes was shite but LVG and Jose when he did play, look at the shit he sacrificed for the team game, when you don't give players real freedom like Fergie did even in shit teams, look at some of those goals and it's fuckin Buttner, Park, some other squaddies celebrating with him, I forgot the head band season for a minute as well lol, remember that one?

Big boots to fill. RVP had his one season but it's been a long time since we had forwards capable of those

the newcastle hit probably the second best goal every scored by a utd player after phil nev against boro tbf

redzebs · 3 years ago

Nah he had loads better, I know your tongue in cheek but if you did a top ten of all time Rooney would probably have at least 1 or 2

Just to be clear Sid, is this supposition or fact?

The agent (reportedly) got £45m out of the Pogba deal so it's not unfeasible that it'll be a similar-ish number on the Lukaku deal too.

I loved that goal... but mostly because of the anger in it... he was ranting at the ref, and just fuckin smashed the ball in rage... then just carried on ranting...

But for me, nothing beats the overhead against City...
