Will Chelsea set up to get the best out of Lukaku?

For all the massive transfer money spent on him, he's never really convinced that he's an elite striker.

Bit of a flat track bully. Scores lots against junk teams.

Those kind of goals are important, obviously.

But for that kind of money you'd hope he'll also be doing it in CL knock-out and against the big EPL teams.
In theory he scores every other game, but in reality he seems to do it in bursts in between barren spells.

Not a single paper or pundit predicting Liverpool.  Bit short sighted. 
That's just, like your opinion man.

Its the concerns over the forward line, especially with Mane and Salah heading for the African Cup of Nations in the winter, as well as the strengthening of the other three clubs, especially Chelsea and City.
If they could bring in another decent forward option, I'd be more optimistic myself.

I doubt they'll win it tbh. Forward line not as effective(though Jota should help). Question marks over whether VanDjk is what he was. They still don't have decent cover for left back I don't think and Robertson instrumental to them. I would be shocked were they not in top four mind you and maybe might challenge for a while. The intensity they play with and the lack of break with the euros I think will impact them too.

I think people are sleeping on Manchester United. Have been active in the transfer window and have been going from strength to strength with each passing season since Ferguson walked away. I think this season they will win either the PL or UCL (not both). In terms of the FA Cup, I think it is losing its novelty and is becoming more and more irrelevant
