Chelsea fans hail Romelu Lukaku's star assist for Belgium against England

Romelu Lukaku's outrageous assist against England on Tuesday has seen Chelsea fans call for the Belgian to be given another chance at Stamford Bridge.

The 30-year-old striker is the forgotten man at Chelsea where he has been shipped out on loan to Italy, but reminded fans of his star quality against England at Wembley.

England were showing confident signs of forcing a second goal when Lukaku outmuscled Brighton centre-back Lewis Dunk and assisting Tielemans with a pinpoint cross.

Lukaku shaped the ball with the outside of his left-foot back across goal where Tielemans had made a bursting run from midfield to head past Jordan Pickford.

Lukaku is currently enjoying a season-long loan at Roma, scoring 18 goals in 37 appearances across all competitions, and is expected to seal a permanent move to the club in the summer.

However, some Chelsea fans feel the centre forward hasn't been given a fair chance at Stamford Bridge since re-joining in a £97.5m deal from Inter Milan three-years ago.

Another similarly added: 'This Lukaku I’m
