For all Romelu Lukaku’s issues this season, the Liverpool dressing room at Wembley will be a happier place if he is left out of Chelsea’s line-up.
Kai Havertz is a talented player but I would be amazed if Virgil van Dijk and Joel Matip would rather play against Lukaku than him.
They will know the Belgian can knock you about physically and hurt you with his pace in behind. The midfielders will not want to see him either because they will have to screen him.
Lukaku’s 10 goals in 28 games this season is below expectations but he still has greater capabilities than any other Chelsea forward.
