I'm not a big fan of Lukaku. He's built like a beast and has plenty of talent but he's too lazy and doesn't make use of it. One of those annoying players who will throw his arms up and stare at his team mate if a pass isn't right at his feet, even though he'd be twice the player if he made more of an effort to make runs and make more of a nuisance of himself. I actually prefer the Welbeck/Vardy types who probably don't have as much technical ability as him but are more effective because they put the work in.
I wouldn't give United a turd, especially with Mourinho there.
I'm losing patience with Ramsey though. The seasons are flying away and I can't see the progress. It's the same with Wilshere, they just aren't getting even the basics right. They should know when to play it fast and simple, and when not to take risks but they prove they don't time and time again. And they're made of glass too, although I'm not sure if any player exists that this club CAN'T turn into glass...
I actually think Ramsey would improve a lot under Mourinho. Wenger's management style is to let the players do whatever they want on the pitch which is why Ramsey has turned into a bit if a headless chicken and leaving gaps in our midfield. Mourinho would beat some discipline into him and teach him where he has to be and why. That's what Ramsey needs most right now IMO. All the more reason not to let him go there, and for someone at Arsenal to give Aaron a kick up the backside and teach him how to boss the midfield like a true all round box-to-box midfielder should. He's 25 and should be looking at what players like Vieira and Vidal were doing at that age, because that's what he should be doing.
I heard someone say earlier that the only player in the Prem who had scored more goals than Lukaku over the last 4 years was Aguero? If that's true then it's kind of impressive, considering he's done it at West Brom and Everton (as a loanee during half of that time), and has only just turned 23! Doesn't look like he misses many games either...
I just want someone who's pacey, strong and doesn't shit himself when through on goal. Surely can't be that hard to find!
If Wenger signs Lacazette I'll have something good to say about him as I very much approve with this signing, would make a change for us to sign someone I actually would like us to sign as opposed to someone I've never heard of or really am not bothered about or don't want here.
At least we don't have to listen to the Morgan Schneiderlain hype machine any more now he's warming United's bench most of the time.![]()
