The Inter striker was feeling the lockdown boredom this evening and decided to have an impromptu Q&A session on Twitter.
Among other things, the Belgian confessed his best moment in the Nerazzurri jersey so far was “my first goal! It was the start of everything.
“Communication is key,” was the secret to his excellent rapport with Inter teammate Lautaro Martinez.
“The best part of playing in Milan is playing in a full San Siro. It’s great, I love it. My favourite Inter goal was Genoa, the second… I showed a lil skill.”
Asked for the most inspiring managerial team talk he has heard in his entire career, the Belgian pointed to this season.
“Conte when we were 2-0 down against AC Milan. He didn’t scream at all, he told us what we had to do and where to find space and we did the business.”
Inter fought back to win that Derby della Madonnina 4-2.
Lukaku spent much of his career in England, but this was the response when asked if he will ever play in the Premier League again, perhaps for Everton.
“I don’t think so, but I loved my time at Everton, for real. Both experiences (Chelsea and Manchester United) were good… People can say it was s**t both for me, it was good at one club, gave me an opportunity to come to England and learn from my idols.
“The other came at the right time for me to make a step up and play in the Champions League.”
Lukaku was asked the difference between Serie A and the Premier League.
“Tactically here you get tested every week… the speed in the Prem is higher.”
