Lukaku scored the first goal of the game in the 15th minute and also created a lot of chances that ensured the Blues dominated the game.
I am very happy with the way that he has integrated already. He is a very smart guy. He likes to be in the group. He is a very democratic leader. He is very friendly, very humble. He gives something to our game that we did not have so much like to protect the balls, to play very direct upfront into the last line.
