Romelu Lukaku urged the team to continue improving and building upon this positive streak of results.

In his post-match interview with Roma TV at full-time of Roma 4-0 Brighton, Lukaku said, “We have to continue like this, we could have scored more goals. This result is good but it’s not over yet. English teams always have the mentality of never quitting so a really difficult match awaits us.”

“I think we worked a lot on how Brighton moved when in possession,” he added. “We worked hard for a result I think we deserved.”

“For me, scoring is the best thing in football, but winning like this and scoring goals is even better. I am a winner, I want to win. The team wants to win, now we are growing as a team and we must continue like this to achieve our goals.”

“Overall, I’m happy with the way we’re all currently playing,” he concluded.
