Speaking about Lukaku’s performance, Nevin said: “He’s scored a goal but it’s not just that… His energy levels are easily the best I’ve seen [from him].
“It’s really exciting to see that from the big man because if he buys into all that sort of stuff suddenly we’ve got the player we were all really hoping for at the start.”
