No!!! nothing is wrong with him didn't you watch the World cup he was phenomenal. Belgium lost to France , in that match he was marked by best defenders and his involvement was minimum in that game and the big factor of lost.....Here he just lost his confidence and lost his form too under Mourinho..I am not criticising Mourinho but it is really rare to see player developing under Mourinho not like Sarri who turned Morata into a goal scorer or Pep Guardiola who doesn't know

We all know he has a first touch of a brick wall , but that hasn't stopped him from scoring loads of goals in the past for other clubs and country. The system that Jose wants him to play in is not the one Lukaku can actually play, he is not a Drogba where you can fire the vall into him and he can control it spin and shoot. Lukaku like to play in behind. Yes he's big an has gotten even bigger but he is quite fast so thats the way he plays. He's just a player playing in the wrong system thats why Manchester United have been playing better without him because players like Rashford and Sanchez can hold the ball up better

Nothing wrong with him it’s the tactics/style of play don’t suit him. I would bet anything if you switched him with Harry Kane you would barely notice a difference with either team they are very similar imo. Man U needs a striker like Aubameyang who is super fast and can dribbles for counter attacks and a finish.

We see lots of positive comments about Lukaku...it’s great he is a great player and has scored many goals for team country...but still I feel that Lukaku sees himself too big and is asking for the ball without trying to really win it...if you watch him closely you will notice he is always stuck with a defender can’t jump and simply gives up...so many turn overs he make... I’m sure that Kane will do much better than Lukaku...Kane has the ability to connect with other players drop to center control the ball doesn’t give away the ball easily and he can win high balls...wining high balls is major problem for Lukaku ...

Nothing wrong with him. He is a striker, when he doesn't receive some real passes from the middle, or the wingers, what you want him to do. He had to get off to the middle to get the ball, and what he did now. We need some mi field players to get to play the real game. Not kick and rush, which Mou had played with Chelsea, and company.

His first touch seem like pass and passing seems like clearing Not only that instead of converting open chances he blasts into the sky

all of the above was Lukaku issue, but biggest issue with Lukaku is his lack of confidence, he looks lost and short of confidence and his timing, positioning are all bad. First he has to have confidence whenever he is with the ball, if you watch him closely you will noticed to control the ball is now a difficult thing for him to do is all down to lack of confidence. technically Lukaku was not good right from his time at Chelsea but his biggest asset then was his confidence believing that he can out run the defenders, control the ball well. on air he was good, he uses his body to his advantage but due to lack of confidence he have lost all that, he hardly run past a defender, can't control the ball well and can't win any ball on the air. So for me his biggest issue is his lack of confidence in himself .

OBVIOUSLY he is some lazy after all how can he run fast with his huge elephant size body He is a good striker afterall When he get the ball inside the box then he scores But he has not got much skills or any speciality
