Lukaku is crowned: “I am among the five best in the world; I am never wrong”

Few players determine both the way a team plays like Lukaku and perhaps that is where his sentence to France Football has been argued in an interview that the Belgian has offered to the French medium and of which the magazine has already published some advance with the cover. “I am among the five best strikers in the world,” the Inter forward stated bluntly. With the Lombard club he signs 12 goals and two assists in this start, being the cornerstone of Conte's scheme. “From a tactical point of view, in terms of positioning and movements, I am never wrong. I am one of the 5 best strikers in the world “, he goes on to go further by stating in advance of the interview that “If Messi, Lewandovski and Cristiano Ronaldo have exceeded their limits, why can't I do it too?”

Lukaku says that he has grown a lot in the last year and a half thanks to Conte, although he also points out that he has progressed thanks to the advice he has received from close friends such as Henry and Drogba. Inter is second in Serie A, five points behind Milan. Last season he stayed very close to Juventus. However, in the Champions League he hit a bump and now he's back on the ropes. He also failed to win the Europa League. Despite this, Lukaku has become a true nightmare for defenses. He is one of the forwards to avoid. Reducing his physical strength and technique on the field is a real challenge. The Belgian is comfortable in Italy, after leaving United after a low-key final season.
