We Take The Knee And Take Tons Of Insult After The Game; Chelsea Playmaker, Romelu Lukaku In Serious Doubts Over The Gesture

Chelsea star and playmaker, Romelu Lukaku is the most recent Premier League player to address whether taking the knee is having a solid effect in the long fight against racism.

Right ahead of the current mission, Premier League players consented to keep making the motion in the continued fight against racism. Up until this point, Wilfried Zaha and Ivan Toney have quit taking the knee.

Gem Palace winger Zaha marked the act as ”degrading” recently, while Brentford striker Toney said players were being ‘utilized as manikins’ in being approached to take a knee.

Recently, Lukaku’s colleague, Marcos Alonso reported his choice to quit making the pre-match signal. Addressing CNN, the Chelsea striker said: ‘I figure we can take more grounded positions, fundamentally. Indeed, we are taking the knee, however eventually, everyone’s applauding except… now and then after the game, you see another affront.’

Lukaku accepts players should meet up to take on tremendous web-based stages like Twitter and Instagram.

This is what Lukaku had to say;

”The captains of every team, and 4 or 5 players, like the big personalities of every team, should have a meeting the CEOs of Instagram and governments and the FA and the PFA, and we should just sit around the table and have a big meeting about it.

How can we attack it straight away, not only from the men’s game, but also from the women’s game. I think just all of us together and just have a big meeting and have a conference and just talk about stuff that needs to be addressed to protect the players, but also to protect the fans and younger players that want to become professional footballers.

If you want to stop something, you can really do it. We, as players, we can say ”yeah”, we can boycott social media, but I think it’s those companies that have to come and talk to the teams, or to the governments, or to the players themselves and find a way how to stop it because I really think they can.

I have to fight, because I’m not fighting for only myself. I’m fighting for my son, for my future kids, for my brother, for all of the other players and their kids, you know, for everybody.

At the end of the day, football should be an enjoyable game. You cannot kill the game by discrimination. That should never happen. Football is joy, It’s happiness and it shouldn’t be a place where you feel unsafe because of the opinion from some uneducated people.”
