Well we sure are making a meal out of this so far.  Lukaku may have scored from 2 feet out, but he is about as fast as the speed of a striking slug.  His movement and ball control are non-existent.

yes we look like mustard packets

That was actually decent holdup play there from Lukaku

How did Rom score? Did Ziyech take a shot that deflected in off his stationary expanding posterior?

 

Yes, I agree that he has stepped up a bit his game since he scored.

Lukaku coming more into the game, perhaps this playing him until he hits form again plan might just work 😅

Ziyech doesn't need to try that every time, he will become too predictable eventually.

silva down...

dont think we need 3 CBs, gotta protect silva

I feel if Lukaku would be a little bit more proactive he would have 3 goals already this game 

I think it's commendable the way we keep the opposition in the game. Everyone's on the edge of their seat - if we were a boring outfit like City or Liverpool this game would be 4-0 at half time and there'd be nothing to do but eat ice cream and chat to your mates.

I'll take that first half, I reckon a 2nd goal for us should be enough but definitely won't feel comfortable only riding the single goal

There’s hope for me yet!

Ice that knee and rest him FFS!

Why can't we just put teams away by half time,our forward line is such poop.

Lukaku repaid his transfer fee with that huge goal.

Could bring Trev on or switch system and add Kante to midfield.

Kinda cursed at scoring goals since Ancelotti was sacked.

Delighted to be leading 1-0 against this combined team of Barcelona, madrid and PSG superstars.. because clearly this is not Al Hilal..

I have no clue why we need 7 defensive players on the field..

That moment where Dave knocked the ball back into the 6 yard box and Lukaku just stood there staring at it.... He's so unbelievably sh*t and lazy.

Don't remember seeing Kai mentioned at all so far? He the invisible man today?

I think Kai has played well

Played pretty well in my book. why waste time praising others when there is so much to complain about?
