Not the top level striker we needed. Still isn’t. Only time will tell if any of Rashford, Martial or Greenwood will be. One thing is for sure, I prefer watching any of our current 3 to Lukaku, and the are more of a United type of striker.
He would never fit in with the front 3 we have now and how they play, glad he seems to be enjoying his football
Think they found a health issue that went undetected at man United, which has enabled him to stay trim, and both parties are defo in a better position now.
Being better and fitting into the style of play are different things. He's certainly a top striker in the right system.
He's scored and assisted over 30 goals so far, in his first season.

He’ll score goals in any team but he’s not elite.
Martial is hopefully becoming that. Lukaku doesn’t score any of Martial’s last 3 goals imo.
He is better than both of them.
He’s without doubt an elite striker for me. He isn’t an exceptional footballer, but his goalscoring record speaks for itself.
Better career goals to games ratio than the likes of Rooney, Owen, Anelka, Fowler, Keane, Hasselbaink, Ferdinand, etc.
Only just 27 years old and given the kind of player he is, if he stays fit, I’d only expect him to improve for seasons to come.
The wrong player for us under Sokskjaer, for sure, but a goalscoring machine.

Good goalscorer but I respectfully disagree.
Wasn’t always entirely his fault but he didn’t score enough goals for us either.
42 goals in 2 seasons is not good enough for what he cost especially who consider he got something like 11 goals in his 1st 10 games.

Do you think it's genuinely unreasonable and completely insane to hold the opinion that Lukaku is a better player than Rashford and/or Martial?
Do you really think that's such an insane opinion?

Lukaku has achieved far more in his career than either of them. They're yet to outscore Lukaku in his best season for United, let alone his best season for Everton, let alone his best season at any club.
Lukaku is also Belgium's record goalscorer, over 100 pl goals etc. etc. You can't say Rashford and Martial who are just now having their first really good seasons are better than him. it's crazy especially when you consider even when they're having this good season that Lukaku is having an even better season in Italy.
Anyone who has watched United the past 3 three can see Martial and Rashford are at a far higher level than Lukaku ever was for us.
Lukaku has never had issues with the socring part of his game. He's always been succesful doing that wherever he went. But his style of play is a different story. Depending on how the team is set up, meant if Lukaku would be more than just a target man up front. He is a good effective player if you play to his strengths.
But now, i am more than happy with the change in style of our attack we have. Much more fluid and deadly. The goals scored is more spread out. And it makes it much more difficult to second guess this attack, as all 3 can effortlessly interchange and create havoc.
Lukaku would probably score plenty in our current set up but also would break down many attacks with a poor touch.

Lukaku is a better player than the two of them. You can’t compare what he’s achieved in the game to what the two of them put together have achieved. He’s scored over 100 pl goals ffs, they’re not even at that put together.
Whether they suit the current system united play or not, it’s completely foolish to say martial and Rashford are better than Lukaku at this stage. They need to achieve a lot more in the game before you can say that
