Manchester United star Romelu Lukaku may have hit some fine form of late but it has not stopped his Belgium teammates from aiming a few shots at their striker.

Romelu Lukaku has found some consistent scoring for Manchester United and Belgium of late and he reacted brilliantly to a hilarious tweet.
The Man United star took the opportunity to pad his states with a first-half brace as Belgium hosted Saudi Arabia at home on Tuesday night in an international friendly.
Lukaku scored on both the 13th and 39th minute for Belgium before Chelsea’s striker Michy Batshuayi (currently on loan at Borussia Dortmund) and Manchester City star Kevin De Bruyne scored in the second-half to seal a 4-0 win for Roberto Martinez’s side.
Napoli’s in-form forward Dries Mertens however took the opportunity to troll his international teammate Lukaku following the international break.
Mertens posted a picture to twitter in which Lukaku can be seen kneeling at an ‘awkward’ angle, which is far from flattering.
While we are in no place to speculate what Mertens, Lukaku and Eden Hazard get up to during their international breaks together – Mertens did the job for us as he posted the picture with a hilarious caption.

Lukaku embraced the joke from Mertens in a clever fashion which understandably sent Man United fans into hysterics.

United fans will be hoping that Lukaku can continue his fine form today as Jose Mourinho’s side host Swansea City at Old Trafford.
