Romelu Lukaku has named the three strikers Belgium boss Roberto Martinez told him to watch in order to improve his game at Everton.

The 24-year-old had been in red hot form for Manchester United - following his £75million move from Merseyside - as the new season got under way.

But Lukaku suffered something of a goal drought prior to netting twice in Belgium's 3-3 draw with Mexico in an international friendly.

Martinez will be hoping his star striker is full of confidence going into the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

And it seems Lukaku, who was told to study the games of Hugo Sanchez, Edinson Cavani and Javier Hernandez while at Everton, is still doing all he can to better his performances.

"I've improved my movement, especially in the box," Lukaku told Belgian publication DH.

"Two years ago, at Everton, Roberto Martinez made me watch videos of my own movement, but also those of other strikers like Hugo Sanchez, Edinson Cavani and Chicharito.

"You need to sit down and watch the Uruguayan's movement inside the box. It's incredible. On top of that, I worked three times a week on my runs inside the box with my coaches."

Manchester United will take on Newcastle at the weekend where Jose Mourinho will be hoping Lukaku can get back to goal-scoring ways.
