Manchester United Transfer Update
With 11 goals in 15 matches, at 22 years of age, Romelu Lukaku has had a good season with the potential to develop much better seasons in the future. This has peeked the interest from the English giant Manchester united.
United currently have the best defensive record in the league with only 10 goals in 15 games. However they are struggling to find the net in games and it is evident by their 5 draws in last 10 games. Four of which has ended in a 0-0 at the full-time whistle. The United skipper Rooney is currently not the best form of his life, the young Frenchman Martial has impressed so far however United seem to be out of option other than the 20-year-old new signing from Monaco. Also considering Martial is new to the league, expecting a lot from such a young player in terms of experience and league familiarity is probably a little unrealistic. Lukaku on the other hand, comes as a good option for United. The young Belgian has been in Premier League for a few years now and is familiar with style and methods of English Football.
Now that United are out of the Champions League the pressure will start mounting on Van Gaal and questions will be asked in many fronts. The Dutchman will definitely try to buy a striker and fill the striker void left by the departure of Van Persie, Hernandez, Wilson. The only question remains is, is it worth buying attacking player when the style of play does not support it?
Chelsea fans may find this news bit irritating as Lukaku was once touted as a next big thing at Stamford bridge before opting a move to Everton. Seeing one of your talent playing for a rival is always a painful business in football.
