Two races and a half without goals, CdS again attacks Lukaku: "Too much for …"

The last goal of Romelu Lukaku with the shirt ofInter dates back to the September 21 derby. And this is a fact. Between that game and today, however, the games played were just four, thanks to the stop for the national teams. In one of these (in Barcelona), Lukaku was unavailable due to a physical problem and in Genoa against Sampdoria he played for only 34 '. The "beauty" of two races (and a half) without scoring for the Belgian. At least it was enough for Corriere dello Sport to underline the abstinence of the new Nerazzurri purchase:

ONE MONTH WITHOUT GOALS – "The last goal in Inter Romelu signed him in the September 21 derby. Since then, thanks to the stop due to the accident and the break, almost a month has passed without exultation. Too much time for a bomber like him. However, compared to two weeks ago, the Antwerp striker is now better off and in the last few days has given discreet signs in training. Against Sassuolo, he wants to confirm these indications and then never stop. In Reggio you will also be able to count on the transfer factor where you have signed 2 goals out of 3 so far".

FALSE START – "Lukaku is a goal animal, not surprisingly he is the best scorer in the history of Belgium (51 centers) and in the Premier League among the active scorers is the fourth of all time (behind Rooney, Aguero and Kane). Precisely because he has accustomed the insiders to certain numbers and because on him the management has invested 65 million euros plus another 10 bonuses, the number 9 is called upon to increase its sub-gate performance. Lovers of statistics will not have missed a "particular" certainly not secondary: to find in his career a less prolific start to the championship must go back to 2014-15 when in the first 7 days he had signed 2 goals against West Bromwich and Crystal Palace. In 2015-16 he had left his mark 4 times, in 2016-17 goals were 5, in 2017-18 even 7, but even in a 2018-19 anything but memorable it was already at 4. But there is more: even in 2013-14 had started better with 4 centers despite the transition from Chelsea to Everton and just 5 races out of 7".
