Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has insisted that he is putting no extra pressure on the shoulders of Romelu Lukaku to continue his fine goalscoring start to life at the club.
Lukaku made it seven goals in as many appearances since his summer move from Everton with a late strike against his former club during United's 4-0 victory over the Toffees this afternoon, but only after he had earlier missed a glorious chance to double his side's lead.
Mourinho stressed that he is more concerned about his players adhering to his tactical plans rather than who gets on the scoresheet, insisting that he is "totally happy" with the Belgian.
"He knows that from me there is no pressure for goalscoring. My pressure is for the tactical plan, for the organisation of the team, and he knew that I was totally happy with him, so no reason to lose any confidence," Mourinho told reporters.
"Again, his goal was the third. For me, the second goal was the most important not the third, but it's always nice for him, it's one more goal and strikers always like to score goals."
Lukaku's goal saw him become just the third Manchester United player to score five goals in his first five Premier League games for the club, following in the footsteps of Louis Saha and Robin van Persie.
