Romelu Lukaku analysed his role with Inter in the chat he had on social media with Thierry Henry and exhibited an unusual maturity for the future.

Romelu Lukaku's encounter with Thierry Henry and Axel Witsel on social media was quite controversial. The Inter CF criticised the fact that Serie A had to wait for a positive Juventus result to come to a complete halt.

But the Belgian didn't just speak about that. He chatted with the French legend about his development at Inter and his thoughts ahead of the future. He showed that he is a much more mature player than the one who did not manage to completely succeed at Manchester United.

"Scoring is my medicine, I live for it", he started. "But, as we grow, we have to start using our intelligence. As we mature, we stop thinking only about ourselves", Lukaku said.

"I can't just score goals. I have to help my team-mates, everyone must be important. If I can't score, I pass the ball so that a teammate can do it", he concluded.

Since his arrival at Inter Milan under Antonio Conte, he has scored 23 goals and got 5 assists in 35 matches.
