What problem? Man Utd striker Lukaku crashes through 20-goal barrier (again!)

Manchester United striker Romelu Lukaku's brace against Huddersfield saw him crash through the 20 goal barrier for the season.

Lukaku has now scored six times in his last eight games, moving to 21 goals for the season. It means he has reached the 20 mark in all competitions for the fourth campaign in a row.

After the FA Cup win, Nemanja Matic said of Lukaku: "He is our first striker and he is very important to us.

"It's good for his confidence that he's scoring goals. He's a great striker, very strong and he is still young. I am sure he will be important for us until the end of the season."
