The Manchester United striker has been scoring for fun

It is true that Belgium have a lot of decent players in their ranks, but Manchester United striker, Romelu Lukaku deserves some respect for his incredible performances in the World Cup this year.

The 25-year-old has been one of the finest finishers in the tournament, converting up to 80% of his total 5 shots during the group stage. So far, the attacker has scored 4 goals in just 3 appearances, averaging a goal in every 37 minutes and inscribing his name on the goalscoring chart.

With a lot of creative players like Eden Hazard, Kevin De Bruyne, Yannick Carrasco and Dries Mertens in the Belgian national team, Lukaku would surely be a great contender for the World Cup Golden Shoe in Russia this year.
