West Brom striker http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Romelu-Lukaku-c31672 is excited by the prospect of playing alongside fellow loan signing Yassine El-Ghanassy and expects the player to be a hit for the Baggies.
The Belgian centre-half joined the Baggies on a season long loan spell from Chelsea. Lukaku had joined the Blues in a high profile move from Belgian club Anderlecht, but never made much of an impact under former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 manager Andre Villas-Boas.
Despite being referred to as the next http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Didier-Drogba-c11044, Lukaku was unable to show what he was truly capable of and was restricted to the bench and reserve squad. The 19 year old striker feels that he was wasted the entire year and was thrilled at having completed
a move to the Hawthorns.
The Belgian centre forward made an impressive start to his Baggies career and scored a goal on his debut against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 as West Brom went on to win their Premeir League opener 3-0.
The forward was also very impressive in the draw against Tottenham at White Hart Lane this Saturday and contributed dynamically as West Brom earned a crucial away point.
Lukaku believes that West Brom are on course for greatness this season and will be able to build on the success that they had achieved in the 2011/2012 Premier League campaign. The striker also feels that the club’s new signings will help this cause.
He was full of praise for fellow player Yassine El-Ghanassy, and believes
the winger from Gent will surely catch the eye of all West Brom fans.
"We have been good friends for many years," Lukaku said. "He is an exciting player. He can play like http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Eden-Hazard-c11863, but on the left wing. That's his position. His ability to give strikers assistance, his ability to go around the outside of players is what
he can do well. Hazard is strong and can excite the crowd.”
"I'm not saying El Ghanassy is like Hazard but what he does have is that ability to excite the crowd. Now he has that opportunity and I think we will see something from Yassine, too. I think some people will be amazed of his qualities. He is that good."
