Chelsea striker Lukaku grateful for praise from Man City captain Kompany

Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku is grateful for the praise from Manchester City captain Vincent Kompany.

Kompany says his fellow Belgian has improved since joining Chelsea, despite his lack of playing time.

"It's true what Vincent Kompany says - I have progressed since I joined Chelsea because I train against top players - but I miss the atmosphere in the stadiums and public support.

"The other strikers are not standing still, so something must change," confessed Lukaku.
