Bilic is impressed with Lukaku's world class

Last season, Romelu Lukau had already scored one of the most beautiful goals of 2016 against Chelsea. That skill showcase proved that he is one of the most impressive and potent strikers in the world, this Sunday he doubled down on that with another stellar performance against West Ham United. But watching Lukaku with front row tickets makes anyone realize they are in front of one of the very best, Hammers' boss Slaven Bilic got through this experience and suffered Lukaku's wrath in front of goal. 

Talking to the press about Lukaku, Bilic said: "Of course he's a world-class player. On one hand it was enjoyable to see him live, especially when the game opens up and you see everything – skill, pace, physique, a plan in his head. Until 2-0, we coped with him really good, but of course he is a world-class player. Unfortunately he is doing that always against us."

About the match outcome, Bilic added: "We should have taken something from this game. I'm not saying that they didn't  deserve it. At the end of the day they were more mature when the game was on the verge. But we should have done better after the start we had in the first 20 to 25 minutes. The first goal was very cheap. We had a couple of chances to equalize, but they were dangerous through Lukaku – they always are on counter-attacks and they scored a second one."

He continued: "We didn't go high flying after the three wins, now we are not going to drop. We showed some good football, but we are concentrating on this game and I am big time disappointed. When we offered them a little bit they took it straight away. They offered us a lot and we didn't take it. If you don't score goals you have a big chance of losing the game."
