Lukaku is the very definition of a “streaky”, or a “confidence” player. When he hits a streak, and he’s full of confidence, he will bang in goal after goal after goal, but once he is out of that streak, he misses everything! I kind of feel bad for him in a way because clearly he can do it, but mentally there’s a major weakness with him, always has been.
Inzaghi and Drogba were like that. But they were somehow tactical with their streaks where they became untouchable kings in finals and would always score merely via confidence and foxy veteran positioning.
@@NJTRAF Its hardly a mental weakness when his teammate handballed the ball in the build up. Lets blame Lulaku for that. Teammate handball...lukaku sucks. Teammate doesng handball, lukaku saves belgium. Fandom is dumb
Never seen a wider variance in finishing ability. Like his floor makes Nunez look like Van Nistelrooy, but his ceiling is immense. When confident and angry, for Inter, I loved watching him. And it's not like I can criticise technique, shot type, or that he's rushing or shooting unbalanced. It must honestly be just a crazy mental block.
As an Everton fan, I blame the mental block on Manchester United. He was an absolute monster for us, unplayable on his day. Then he goes to United and is asked to replace Wayne Rooney, in front of the notoriously ruthless United fans, and I think thats where the mentality issues we see now stem from. His time in Italy showed the beast that he was at Everton is still there. I think his time at United just ruined his confidence and he still is struggling to recover.
you might not be completely wrong but your reasoning wy is a bit of i watched this guy from his first match till current as i live in belgium so i do folow the league and the main thing with his he has always been treated like the second comming of crist and acted as sutch but any time he gets confronted with the fact there are things and players bigger then him he completely shits its as his brain can't compute it
Chelsea also has the number 9 curse as well so basically he's just gone to the two worst PL clubs for elite players. I'm even saying it as a United fan 😂

@@bengtonNot go back to Chelsea for a second time since he already flopped there the first time? Only thing I can agree with in that transfer is Inter needing money.
Honestly, I just want Lukaku to score an absolute belter now, even if it's not an important goal (for instance let's say he scores the 3rd goal in a 3-0 win at 90+ minutes) A solid, 20 yards out, thumper of a shot that nearly rips the net off, just so he can get all his frustrations out
To be fair on Lukaku, he took those goals well but you know the Football Gods had to continue the Lakaka meme. He wasn't that bad compare to the World Cup in Qatar. Should have never returned to Chelsea 3 years ago though.
I laughed my arse off at the second disallowed goal. As soon as I heard they were checking I was like "Oooohhh they're gonna be so mad and it's gonna be hilarious if this one is ruled out too"
I do so hope he keeps trying...and i do so hope he keeps missing. It's just comedy gold watching him, his reactions and the inevitable memes. Just brilliant. You do you Lakaka 😂
Lukaka is who people think Morata still is. Morata I remember had his troubles at Chelsea, and he didn’t do much at Madrid since he was there during the BBC era. But at Atletico and Juventus, he’s amazing, for Spain he’s amazing. Lakaka is a decent striker, but he really is just bad, he has what you want, but he’s like KD in basketball, but he’s not good at what he wants to do. With his massive body he tries to finesse things, in his early career he actually did muscle people out of the way, and used his speed, but now he’s even heavier, but slower, yet he tries to be graceful, he should’ve been the box working on both feet and scoring headers, or shoving defenders away. He doesn’t play to his real strengths and he’s then had to deal with that in bigger or important matches.
I think "major tournament Lukaku" is a birt harsh. I remember 3 years ago at Euros 2020 he was considered one of if not the best striker on earth and he played like it for Belgium too It was when De Bruyne wasn't really at it bc of that face injury from the CL final, and Lukaku absulotely carried that team Major tournament Lukaku really only exist since Qatar
I've actually got £10 on Belgium getting grouped with a friend, De Bruyne said it at the World Cup in Qatar, that golden generation is too old now, their only potential saving grace is they're in a very average group
@@AnEagle That group doesn't make any sense. How does that group exist when Belgium and Ukraine are the strongest teams in Group E, or Portugal and Czech Republic are the strongest teams in Group F?
Lukaku is the most anti-clutch player of all time I remember when he was at Everton and Man United, he was always being made fun of due to his goal records against the big six.
I just want to point out that I grabbed Dragusin on a free when he was like 17 three or four FMs ago so he's my "I knew this guy was going to be good because FM" player
I still remembered him terrorising Brazil in 2018. How things change. Wild that absolutely nobody is commenting that the header for his first disallowed goal was going in - if he'd just left it untouched Belgium gets that goal.
Havent really seen him at Everton nor before that but since that, apart from the I believe first season at inter(?) I was never convinced of him being a top striker, a good striker yeah but not on the level as Lewa, Kane, Suarez, Ibra and so on
There was a darts player with the yips at the world championship some years ago. Guy was literally crying because he couldn't throw anymore. If Lukaku truly has the yips that's more sad than funny
I don't really get this commentary. He did score twice. First goal disallowed was very slightly offside not visible without VAR, can happen to anyone. 2th goal he scored was a handball by Openda with a good finish from Lukaku. Not his fault.
because this wouldn't be the case had he score the 20 or so other chances he himself created by positioning. he was just terrible 99% of that game. in the 2 instances he was good, the goals were not valid. LMAO.
Man it’s sad what happened to Lukaku. His ego went to his head a bit after being settled and lethal at Everton. It was frustrating to hear him every time he played at an international level batting his eyelids at ‘bigger’ clubs - only for him to get his huge move then completely shit the bed. Purple patch at Inter aside he’s never been the same. Also - when he was at Everton he was so much leaner, why did he feel the need to bulk up and lose all that agility?
I was rooting for Slovakia to win the game, but it was painful to have Lukaku out of everybody be the guy who misses clear-cut chances and has two goals disallowed (even though he had absolutely no influence on the second one being disallowed). Also, if he plays the same game ten years ago, he's the hero for Belgium because both goals would have stood. Which is also why VAR, as much as people hate it, is the right way to go, since now Slovakia goes into their second game with three points, confidence and a great shot at moving on to the knockout phase instead of being out of the tournament with one foot already.
Many say that he can't handle big games or tournaments, but as an Inter fan, I think his worst game ever wasn't against a big team or in a big tournament but during a Monza-Inter (2-2) During that game he wasn't even a starter but he entered the pitch during the 2nd half for dzeko, and from then he literally got everything wrong. At a certain point, lukak missed a very easy stop, and the cameras showed dzeko laughing as the next thing.
Watching Lukaku handle the ball is like watching an old person with a cane trying not to trip when on frozen ground. It looks so bad, as if he has no idea how to actually play football. If Belgium want to progress they need to start Openda, he is a beast.
Openda hasn’t scored for Belgium for like 2 years, and if you remember his game against Madrid (2nd leg), he might be a bigger choker than Lukaku. Plus Lukaku is important in Belgium’s dressing room
@@LuffyL-ch1ku I know that Lukaku's record in the national team is insane; however, when you look at how he plays right now you gotta give it to Openda and give him a proper chance on the big stage. And nobody knows how often Openda actually got the chance to a) start for Belgium and not just come off the bench, and b) to start in the proper striker position and not somewhere else.
@@LuffyL-ch1ku I call BS, Openda has made 18 apperances for the national team so far for a total of 533 minutes - that is less than 30 minutes per match, and more than half of that was in friendlies, averaging 52 minutes per friendly match. How is that plenty of opportunities? He played a total of 144 minutes in the EURO qualifiers, 57 minutes in the Nations League, 7 minutes at the EUROs now and 13 minutes at the World Cup. That doesn't look like he got a starting spot in a striking position *at all* .
@@MrReese he didn't score against Montenegro with almost 90 minutes playing time though. 2 goals in 540 minutes is not good compared to his Leipzig carrer
If Lukaku played at his best all the time, he would genuinely be one of the greatest strikers we have today But he just has this thing making him hilariously disappointing And I feel bad for him, but also it’s very funny
Thought he had a good game honestly, he had two goals wiped due to very close circumstances. I know he makes weird personal decisions, but people just love to shit on him for any reason. Unwarranted imo
Not disagreeing but to offer some balance, the second goal should never have been disallowed. That wasn't down to Lukaku having a nightmare, it was instead the officials who fucked up there.

Thought he had a good game honestly, he had two goals wiped due to very close circumstances. I know he makes weird personal decisions, but people just love to shit on him for any reason. Unwarranted imo
What ancient trickster Football god did the Belgium national team insult?
Lukaku might suck at EURO but at least he is running unlike Zealand. Also i bet his backdrop is finished.
i feel bad for de bruyne man
Not disagreeing but to offer some balance, the second goal should never have been disallowed. That wasn't down to Lukaku having a nightmare, it was instead the officials who fucked up there.
Wait why shouldn’t we say Yips?
Lukaku's Important Matches rating should be a 1 in Football Manager.
