#1 Lukaku's worrying form

Image result for lukaku — Lukaku is going through a poor run of form.

Romelu Lukaku has not been in the best of form lately and has come under criticism from the fans after his horror performance against Wolves in the weekend. He got a golden chance to be a match winner against Wolves, but his lack of agility and awareness went against him. It was arguably one of his worst performances in United colors.

Today he didn't look sharp at all and missed a 1-v-1 against the goalkeeper and also a clear header to increase United's lead in the first half. Mourinho will want his central striker to get scoring as he doesn't have that experience on the bench to replace the Belgium international.

About the author

A sports enthusiast and an avid follower of football.

Since childhood I was encouraged to play cricket and in no time it became a hobby. Gradually I found interest in other sports also.

Football is in my blood and I love the electrifying ambiance that surrounds it. I often watch the pre and post match analysis of a match and try to learn how to analyze a football game.

The thing that intrigues me the most is that there are so many things happening behind the scenes that are oblivious to our naked eyes. The technological advancements that has been made are phenomenal.

I like analyzing a game from a statistical point of view. Being a data guy myself , I am firm believer of providing insights through facts and data. Though a game is always unpredictable , analyzing it from different dimensions can provide some very interesting conclusions.
