98 - Summer Stars
5.0
Unreal Striker
By TheBigPoppar, 11-07-2021

As a comparison I will compare him to Summer Stars Isak (95) and PIM Eto (93). This is the squad he is in, a 4-2-2-2 paired with Eto up front with engine (https://www.futbin.com/21/squad/9069926),


I had Eto at first and he was upfront with Kimmich and Eto was miles better and just a dominant striker that could get behind the defence, dribble well and score heaps of goals. I ended up moving Kimmich to the right and was considering getting TOTS Lukaku but he was nearly 600k so I passed and instead tried SS Isak who was 130k, Isak was like Eto but better at everything he was just godly up front and the mix of size and speed he was unstoppable. I was annoyed cos Eto cost me the remainder of my club to complete the SBC. A few days later I saw the Lukaku card come out and then realised that he was only around 300k which was insane considering his TOTS was double that a few days ago.


I was a bit iffy to purchase him, only because Isak was so good, but I did anyway. This guy is the best player I've used in this game. It's unfair how much of a machine he is! His pace, heading, strength, dribbling, finishing, passing, skills/weakfoot - literally every stat he has is god tier. I cannot recommend a player enough.


He picks up the ball and just accelerates so rapidly through defences and that strength allows him to push defenders away and come out of 50/50's on top. Dribbling is surprisingly nimble for a guy that big, which is super handy as he can manoeuvre around the box and unleash a shot from his left or right foot. One thing I noticed with him over Isak and Eto is the way he makes runs, he always gets in behind and the lines he runs sets him up for perfect through balls from my wide CAMs, they also let him get in front of defenders on crosses and his big head rarely misses a header or loses a challenge.


Best player I've used this FIFA and for less than 300k now he is a steal.

Everything, there is no fault in his card as a ST, his stats don't lie he literally has everything

THE ABSOLUTE UNIT OF A MAN

My goodness. Where do I begin. I have always loved Romelu Lukaku. The name is fun to say, he's the definition of a tank, and the tenacity IRL is the stuff of legends. I have however, struggled to effectively use him in Fifa. I've found his past versions to be clunky, and a fairly one dimensional "Power Striker." I was shocked to get Lukaku in my 4th player pick, and while he didn't fit my squad at the time, after a few game...

The complete striker!

If I would have to label one card as a complete striker, it would be Summer Stars Lukaku. I acquired this card and used him to complete the weekend league and he's been terrific! Let me say, it's already pretty difficult to express how crazy he is. First of all, it's tricky to pin down Lukaku's main strength. This guy is rapid, strong, an elite finisher, and his passing is top tier for a striker. Use his physicality...

Big Rom

All ill say is this, if you only use meta players and your defence is Mendy, Varane, Gomez and Semedo this guy probably isn't the best for you. This doesn't mean he's bad though. I'm only a div 3 player so i guess my opinion isn't the best but he is by far the most fun player I've played with in a while on FIFA in general and definitely my favourite in FIFA 21. If you want a fun player ...
