Chelsea FC: What do we know, what have we learned

Luk who’s here

Making a point, Lukaku style!

After a season as sensational as the last one, Romelu Lukaku was bound to be in the thick of the things at Stamford Bridge. However, not many would have thought that his time to shine would come so soon.

With 41,500 spectators watching, Lukaku broke the offside trap, gathered a through ball from van Ginkel and slotted it past the goalkeeper with ease.

Keeping the goal aside, the man was a monster, who terrorized the defence since the word go. He closed them down within a fraction of seconds and outmuscled his way out of many challenges.

Lukaku’s speed only adds to the devastation he creates. His time at West Bromwich Albion has helped him become a better footballer as he can hold the ball, trick it past the defenders and he has developed an eye for the final killer pass.

If Mourinho does stick with him as the first choice striker, he will surely not regret it. More of the same, please.
