What about Havertz’s game makes that so that is lacking in Lukaku’s?

His movement. He's a good creative link with the midfield and the other attackers. Lukaku tends to stick to central areas as the focal point, and whether it's planned or not, we end up playing a very predictable game where we force feed him the ball.

nice to see a rival struggle as much at home against brick walls as we do.

Maguire wasn't playing, was he?

Mate how many times did Ole with that shower of shite beat us at the Etihad ?

they weren't *this* shit at any point during those years i'm sorry

That’s a difficult one to solve as 50% of the time, Lukaku has the first touch of a horse.

Disagree. Van Nistelrooy he isn't.

Disagree. Van Nistelrooy he isn't.

He had the face of a horse, not the touch.

It’s all linked though. Movement, first touch and angle of body when receiving the ball.

He needs to improve all 3, imho.

Really crap performance. Big win considering.

Honestly, had forgotten they signed Saul Niguez.

So had Chelsea for a while..

33 goals this season in the league. Defenders or penalties account for 16 goals and 8 assists.

The shit's just not sustainable. They will have more games like Burnley and United where their lack of goals will cost them points.
