What you see, is what you get

As my title suggest, what you see is exactly what you get.

Overall, very good player when used correctly. You can guarantee that he will be in the right place at the right time, be able to score with his left foot with relative ease, win headers a lot and hold up the ball very well. If those features suit your play style, I couldn't recommend a better player.

Pace: Fast enough for this game, takes a while to get there but he does reach some pretty good speeds - Long balls from fullbacks up towards him work very well as they allow him to reach max speed and thanks to his positioning, strength and aerial ability, he wins most long balls that you send his way.

Shooting: His positioning is great and has a very powerful strike that is very accurate from close range.

Passing: His passing felt very good, he holds up the ball with ease and can send passes through to his fellow attackers with ease and with good accuracy.

Physical: Very strong and can last a full 90 minutes quite easily - a mixture of his M/M work-rates and 84 stamina helps him last all game.

Dribbling: He feels extremely clunky. He can run straight through players, but don't expect him to weave in and out.

Defending: Yes, I know he's a striker, however, with many other strong strikers I've used, when I go defensive they seem to come back and put in a decent shift. I expected the same from Lukaku due to his physical presence, but he kind of just lingers around doing nothing.

Weak foot: 4* seems decent but it does not feel like it, feels more like a 2/3 star. I'm pretty sure he's yet to score with his right foot.

Romelu Lukaku

Beast

This year i decided to play a formation with two strikers and currently i am pairing him up with Aguero. His strength, height and headers is what i enjoyed most with this player. His first touch lets him down sometimes but he can make it up to you with the rest of his abilities.

I used Lukaku in the WL. He scores more than 1 goal/game. Only player that really surprised me. I was really doubtful on him before.PACE: 8 Not a great acceleration but he is impressive in sprint speed.

Romelu Lukaku

Insane AF

I packed 88-Lukaku from the FUT Champs packs, quite surreal tbh. Lukaku is such a beast in-game and is definitely the meta-striker from the PL you are looking for. I mean 4 star WF, bags of pace, Akinfenwa-like strength and insane finishing.He bags most crosses in the box and is able to regain you possession in the final third, given you press well enough. Interplay with other players is can be questionabl...
