Romelu Lukaku has been crowned PFA
player of the month - with more votes than the rest of the Premier League combined. The

September
Top six (votes in
percentage)
Romelu Lukaku - 53.7
Harry Kane - 15.8
Alvaro Morata – 15.6
Kevin De Bruyne – 7.6
Sergio Aguero – 5.1
David Silva – 2.2
It is resounding
acknowledgement of Lukaku’s incredible form in the opening two months of the
campaign, following his £75m move from Everton.
The 24-year-old has
scored 11 goals in 10 games for United - 15 in 12 including internationals.
And his votes drawfed those received by Sergio Aguero, whose record of seven
goals in eight appearances, only earned him 5.1 percent.
Chelsea’s Alvaro
Morata picked up 15.7 percent.
Lukaku won the vote by a landslide
Lukaku has spearheaded
United’s undefeated start to the season, which sees them top the Premier
League, level on points with Manchester City.
And Jose Mourinho has
hailed his No9’s impact.
“I think every step in
his career he grabbed the opportunity with both hands,” said the United
manager. “It was always his dream to come to this level and since he arrived I
don’t think he thinks about another thing than in his success so he works hard,
he rests, he has a great professional life outside the football pitch.”
