The big Belgian striker has been in sensational form since securing a summer move from Everton to OId Trafford.

Brought in by Jose Mourinho to be the missing piece of the jigsaw up front for United and to fill the void left by Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s injury, Lukaku has made an excellent start to life at OId Trafford.

Four goals in his opening four games, including two on his Old Trafford debut, have instantly endeared him to the United fans.

Lukaku will be confident of maintaining his form if he can remain clear of injury. The quality of players in behind him such as Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Paul Pogba means chances should keep coming his way throughout the season.

The 24-year-old smashed in 25 Premier League goals last season, his best haul since moving to England, and there is every chance he could go on to better that this season given this impressive start.
