94 - TOTS
4.0
OHHH ROMELU LUKAKU
By ybjlzzz, 11-05-2018

I got this Lukaku out of my EPL TOTS SBC and after playing with him for a couple dozen games and having an above 1:50 goal per game ratio I had to review this card. When reviewing a card like Lukaku I had to start with his physical traits. 6'2, 99 Strength, 99 Heading. This card wins 80%-90% of headers without any problem. If you have a goal kick aim it at him and he'll flick it on to a runner or head it back to control the play allowing for a lot of options on attack. He holds and pushes off defenders without any problem, especially the common 84 Bailly's, 85 Ferdinands, 87 Desailly etc.


Once you have control and you have that shot lined up its hitting the back of the net 9 times out of 10. His weak foot isn't too much of a problem especially with 4* however i wouldn't recommend shooting from far outside the box with it because it will probably go wide or high especially off balance. Speed is more than enough especially when he gets going. His strides are a little longer than say Aguero, Firmino etc so keep that in mind. His passing is great for a striker and he will find the open man without any problem.


I find the only issue is quickly cutting in and out of runs and with 75 agility and without 4* skills it makes it a little bit slower and can allow defenders to get into a better position but he does control the ball well and can hold off nearly all defenders. If you don't hold that Sprint button too much it shouldn't be any issue.I think if you have a player that's more agile like a Aguero, Jesus or Firmino he works perfectly running with the ball, in support or holding it up for other players around him to make that run behind.


All in all I would definitely recommend this card even with a 600K price tag. If i was choosing it would be between him or the 93 TOTS Firmino and my decision would come down to who would suit my style of play.

The Monster that is Lukaku

Romelu Lukaku, Big, Belgian and an absolute monster, not only is he extremely hard to stop once he gets going, he still somehow manages to find the back of the net in almost any circumstance, I did have my doubts about him performing for me cause my play style is quite fast and flowing, but somehow, Lukaku finds himself in the right places at the right time almost 90% of the time, yes, he does have a few games where he's ta...

BEAST!

I was lucky enough to pull this guy out of my first PL upgrade pack, but since I had my forwards set, I was only able to play him as CM. So I converted him to CAM and play him in a 4-3-2-1 as the left CM and let me tell you, this guy is just not fair. He outmuscles everyone, and with the guardian chemstyle he gets that necessary defensive boost. His workrates are fine for me, as I play with Rui Costa as well and I'm sort of...

Romelu "The Beast" Lukaku

Well, well, well....... I was lucky enough to pack him in sbc FOF guaranteed. I have to say that he is so far the best ST I have used this year ( even last year) . In 35 games, online seasons and SB, he scored 33 goals. He, literally, has the capacity to score a goal almost every time he touches the ball. He's a bad dream for all defenders. His physicality is outstanding, his composure, finishing and passing are from anoth...
