Alans Shearer Comes To The Rescue Of Romelu Lukaku!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Alan Shearer, in a column for The Sun, wrote:\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/h3>\n

\u201cOn Saturday, there was some criticism about his movement in the link-up play. Yet [Jose] Mourinho said in the summer he was not interested in all that and he was not that type of player.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cHe just wanted a goalscorer operating in and around the box to put the ball away. All this business about strikers dropping deep to link up play is overrated in my opinion anyway.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Alan Shearer also shared his experience as a player. He reminisces his time as a player at Newcastle. He furthermore added:<\/p>\n

\u201cIn my time at\u00a0Newcastle, if we were going through a bad spell I found myself dropping deeper to help my team-mates.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cBut at the same time, this was negating my greatest strength. When we were playing well, and I was on the shoulder of the last defender, we were dangerous.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

In addition to this, he also praised the current Manchester United team. He wrote:<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is enough creativity in that Manchester United team right now as it is. It seems to have a lot more pace and energy, with more players now confident enough to run beyond the ball.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cMarcus Rashford,\u00a0Henrikh Mkhitaryan\u00a0and\u00a0Juan Mata\u00a0all have quite enough ability to threaten and open up a defence without the need for Lukaku to come back and join in. Just stay up there and finish it off.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Well, with this, Lukaku might understand that people are studying his each movement and that this switch is huge for him as well as for football.<\/p>\n
