Romelu Lukaku

Lukaku was believed to be having a poor season by his standards but a brace against Crystal Palace in midweek took his league goals tally to 10.

His two smart finishes proved crucial to United’s 3-1 win at Selhurst Park and will have given the striker a real boost ahead of the final matches of the campaign.

The Belgian international has a very decent record when playing Saints too and has seven goals in 10 meetings for West Brom, Everton and United.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer fielded both Lukaku and Rashford versus Liverpool and this may prove to be a very difficult pairing to stop for Saints if utilised again.
