"why are people picking Ballotelli over Lukaku "

Because if he is played properly and in form, he's better than him. Consistency, absolutely swap it!

Such a big list of names!
Still I have to say that this is a worldclass article!

Gotta disagree Melton. For his age, Lukaku has an incredible scoring record. He could go on to be one of the great strikers.

98 career goals and he's still only 21. Since 2012 only Aguero, RVP and Suarez have scored more goals in England.

I find it really sad that Falcao is even being compared to Soldado, the lowest low he's reached so far
