Couple of interesting stats in F365's summary

Romelu Lukaku
Scorer of his 106th and 107th career goals, having only turned 22 in May.
The common retort when mentioning Lukaku's goal record (which I do, a lot) is to point out that he scored plenty of times in the weaker Belgian league, but here again there is an easy comeback. Since moving to West Brom on loan in August 2012, Lukaku has scored 44 goals in 106 Premier League games. In that time Wayne Rooney has scored 41. Rooney may have been deployed in a central midfield role for some of that spell, but he's also not been playing for mid-table clubs. I'll repeat it again: Lukaku has only just turned 22.
The Belgian's performance against Southampton was a perfect demonstration of his arts. The first was a header that required Lukaku to strain his neck backwards to gain the requisite contact on the ball and guide it into the top corner. The second saw him win the ball back in midfield and exchange passes with Ross Barkley, before driving past two defenders and finishing coolly.
It was no coincidence that Lukaku looked more energised at St Mary's, Roberto Martinez choosing to play him alongside the excellent Arouna Kone. One of Lukaku's biggest limitations at Everton has been a lack of support in the final third. He's too often been asked not just to score chances, but create them for himself. The initial signs of link-up between the pair are very promising indeed.
Despite my obsession with the goal record, it is Lukaku's physical fitness which remains his most impressive attribute. On Saturday Mauricio Pochettino spoke of Harry Kane's fatigue after a long season and short pre-season. Kane is only two months younger than Lukaku, and was equally relied upon last season to lead his club's forward line in four competitions.
Yet Lukaku is rarely given a rest. Since the beginning of 2013 (and including friendlies), he has played 144 matches. By the time he turns 23, he will be closing in on 350 as a professional. That's obscene.
At a time when England's elite are all crying out for forward reinforcements, it seems bizarre that there is a young, prolific Premier League striker doing his thing for a club who would see a top six finish as cause for celebration. If Lukaku was English, we'd be hailing him as the second coming.
