This is why Chelsea paid the money. With Romelu Lukaku in place, Thomas Tuchel’s side are now very serious contenders for the Premier League title. They won the Champions League last season but with Lukaku in the team there’s no doubt they’re even stronger.
You wondered how sharp Lukaku would be on his return to London, but it looks like he is up to speed straight away.
He bullied Pablo Mari — it was such a mismatch that it looked as though Lukaku was playing against a 12-year-old.
It was like when you bring a youth team player into first-team training, though Mari didn’t help himself by trying to fight his opponent each time they went toe to toe.
The Belgian’s going to bring so much to Chelsea this season — his hold-up play, the way he links things together and also his running ability.
With the way he plays, you have someone to hit the ball into and can get runners off him. Lukaku is a good age now and he knows his game inside out.
It’s going to be a hell of a race for the Golden Boot this season but he is going to be right up there with the best this league has to offer.
He got 30 goals in all competitions last season at Inter, where he really matured under Antonio Conte, and now he looks the real deal.

Romelu Lukaku showed Talent and hardwork today. Wish he scored at least a BRACE as he almost did with that header which hit the Goal Post. EPL better know what's COMING

Man City added Jack Grealish who wasn’t actually needed. Man U added Sancho who wasn’t a primary need. Liverpool added Konate who isn’t too pressing to be there. Chelsea bought Lukaku to wake Werner up and for Lukaku to kill defenders. Arsenal has since been searching for a needed player like the ones in clubs that aren’t so needed but here we are signing young boys. Arsenal should be renamed London Young Boys FC
