He only wanted us

 

[Ronin]

"Inter were the only club I wanted, because Inter is Not For Everyone. I’m here to bring the Nerazzurri back to the top." These were Lukaku’s first words as a Nerazzurri player.

A little cringe.

I'm happy with the transfer though, I think he'll do well here.

 

[Luka]

Conte should be well pleased as he finally got his man after many years. Curious to see Lukaku play under him.

Good luck.

 

[ElDiego22]

Welcome Romelu.

 

[Luka]

"Lukaku is the eighth best foreign scorer of all time in the Premier League with 113 goals, and has reached double figures in all of the last seven seasons. "

Not a bad stat for a "horrible" striker.

 

[SiamoNoi]

He trained with Anderlecht to force transfer and its ok with us but we are not ok with Icardi and his actions?Seems like double standards strikes again.

 

[Vertigo]

Im not too excited for this, but still..

Welcome Big Rom, i hope you fulfill Adriano's unfinished destiny here

 

[Big Willy]

Welcome Rom!

He will cockslap Chiellini with his 24 inch schlong.

When fans were expecting goals suddenly Lukaku gets laid by Wanda and the new seasons of the soap opera to begin with new character joining

first pic of him meeting the mgmt

oh wait

wrong pic...sorry

 

[Moradinho]

Really have no idea how he will do here. I feel he needs more space than serie a defences usually provide, but happy to be proven otherwise. Welcome Lukaku! (and holy shit thats a lot of money, but yeah, I guess thats how it is nowadays..)

 

[yoszee]

No, it was icardi and that blonde is Wanda while imagining his BBC.

Poll added. Will close in 10 days.

I've never been a fan of Lukaku, not even during his time at Everton. It's a matter of taste. But even though I would have never signed him for my team, I've always failed to understand the acrimony with which people often talk about him. Is he the best striker in the world? Of course not. But there's acknowledging his technical limitations, and then there's trying to pass him off as a bum who only happened to get lucky more than 200 times so far in his career. His stint at United didn't pan out as expected, and he must take most of the blame for that. However, I suspect that the toxic environment and tactical cluelessness that has been plaguing United since Ferguson left might have played a part in his (and his teammates') failure to live up to expectations. We, as Inter fans, should know about it.

It is said that Conte had already tried to sign him twice in the past. Third time lucky, as you would say. Even though I'm not particularly fond of physical strikers, I realise the importance they may have in Conte's tactics. He likes his forwards to put constant pressure on the defenders so as to force them to commit turnovers in dangerous positions, thus exposing themselves to quick counterattacks. He also likes them to be quick in transition as he prefers a more direct and vertical approach with regards to tactics. Lukaku - at least his Evertonian version - fits the bill perfectly. Now it's up to Pintus to get him back into shape. As for Serie A's mythological tight defences, they didn't prevent two absolute lugs such as Petagna and Pavoletti from netting 16 goals each last season. I don't see why a clearly superior player like Lukaku should be cursed to fail.

Whether Conte will be able to get the best out of Lukaku is still to be seen, but let's at least give the big man a chance before we throw him under the bus...

Welcome Romelu and prove us all wrong!

 

[JJM]

No, it was icardi and that blonde is Wanda while imagining his BBC.

Wanda is Inter's CEO and Icardi the SD...with a lift of a finger he can sell other players...

 

[D-Sky]

Somehow I believe he will succeed here.

Welcome Romelu. Now dear god please prove your skeptics including me wrong and make up for that ridiculous transfer fee by putting penaldo into a back seat on this seasons' top scorers list.

It's either gonna be that or the exact opposite.
