Lukaku wants United team-mates to know his movements better
Manchester United's striker, Romelu Lukaku, is not having a good run of form for his club. He has only managed to score 4 goals in 13 matches for the club, this term. Tomorrow, as he faces his former side Everton, he would hope to end his goal-drought, which has been going on for eight matches. Lukaku wants his team-mates to know his movements better.
Lukaku's form for Belgium has not dropped
It is notable that Lukaku's form for his national side remains spectacular. He has already netted in five times this season in four appearances for Belgium. Last year, Lukaku had already netted in 11 goals in his first 13 appearances for Manchester United.
Mourinho has no other options for the striker's role
United manager Jose Mourinho has also spoken about Lukaku's dip in form, but he remains without any option for the role of the center forward. He cannot play Marcus in the position since United do not have an extra winger to fill Rashford's shoes. Mourinho said, "One day his confidence levels will be back to normal" while speaking about Lukaku's goal drought.
Lukaku feels United's teamwork needs to be better
Lukaku believes that the teamwork between him and his Manchester United mates needs to improve for him to bounce back. Comparing his position in United to the national squad, Lukaku said that he has been playing in Belgium since he was 16, and that is why players know him better. "When that starts clicking the results will also come here", feels Lukaku.
Editor's opinion: What about Lukaku's prolific form last season?
If lack of teamwork is the reason behind Romelu Lukaku's goal drought, why did it suddenly arise this season? United have not made any radical changes to their squad this term, and it cannot be said that the teamwork, which was there last season, has now just evaporated. Lukaku managed an impressive haul of 16 Premier League goals in 34 appearances last season.
