Lukaku, who picked up the Man of the Match award, insists the squad’s hard work on the training ground paid off against the Clarets.
“We are Manchester United, this is how we have to play in every game and against Tottenham we did the same,” he said. “The people will now see a different side of us. Everything that we worked on in the last couple of weeks is coming out now – lots of quick passing, runs in behind, a lot of action and a lot of chances.
The big Belgian frontman possibly could have scored more against a Burnley side that had already played nine competitive matches this season, yet he is more than happy with the team’s improved performance.
“I hoped for the hat-trick in the second half and I think I should have got a penalty on the last one. I don’t dive, I’m not a player who dives,” he admitted. ”But, anyway, I am happy with the two goals, I am happy with the win, the way we played and now we have to continue and bring this consistency to the next games.
Lukaku concluded by declaring that United will switch the attentions to the international break before returning, ready to face a strong Watford side who beat Tottenham on Sunday.
