Thomas Tuchel lists five things he loved about Romelu Lukaku's Chelsea debut in Arsenal win

 



Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel declared his happiness with how Romelu Lukaku has settled into the team after scoring on his second debut in the 2-0 win over Arsenal.


The Belgian was making his first appearance in a blue shirt for eight years, having sealed a £97.5million move back to Stamford Bridge from Inter Milan in August.


Lukaku had not scored in any of his previous 10 league appearances for the Blues but wasted no time in getting off the mark, needing just 14 minutes to fire the visitors into the lead.


It was a goal right out of the striker’s textbook, drawing in Gunners defender Pablo Mari before bursting into the box and shrugging off the Spaniard, before tapping home from close range.
