The shock defeat against Hellas Verona was certainly surprising. At that time Lukaku was not in the Napoli squad. Then, Napoli won 3-0 over Bologna which was good news for Lukaku even though Lukaku was not in the Napoli squad either.
Making his debut against Parma, he made the whole stadium cheer because their hopes of not dropping points were realized and he scored on his debut.
It is very likely that Lukaku will be the one who decides Napoli in every game. It is not impossible considering he is a player who has proven his quality in Serie A while he was not on the operating table.

It didn't take long for Lukaku to adapt and score, Lukaku immediately made an impact in his debut match, and I predict Conte will rely on him this season. We can see that Conte was not wrong to recruit Lukaku from Chelsea, the effect was immediately felt with Napoli managing to secure full points. Thanks to the dramatic victory over Parma, Napoli has now collected 6 points and is ranked 6th in the standings. Without Osimhen, Conte will certainly rely on Lukaku in the front line, his quality has been tested and it seems that Lukaku can meet expectations.

This is inseparable from his playing minutes in Serie A. Lukaku will be a deadly bomber and could be the right choice to replace Osimhen.
Osimhen, who has now left Napoli, will be increasingly forgotten by loyal Napoli fans if Lukaku can maintain his performance when he gets Antonio Conte's trust.
For the time being, Conte can rely on Lukaku, but Conte is not like other coaches who have handled Napoli. It is still possible that Lukaku's fate will be like Osimhen's. That's why I said that if Lukaku is able to maintain his good performance, a place for him as a starter will be given to him.
Lukaku's adaptation process with Napoli did not take long because Lukaku was already accustomed to the Serie A game, especially last season he became an AS Roma player on loan from Chelsea who was previously loaned to Inter. Of course, this made it easy to find chemistry with the new team. On the other hand, he also performed quite impressively at AS Roma, he managed to score 21 goals from 47 matches in various events because this is why Conte wants to make Lukaku permanent as a Napoli player.

Lukaku's selection to play for Napoli was the right choice because a player like Lukaku is what Conte wants. We can see this when playing against Parma, even though Napoli was behind until the 90th minute when Lukaku came on, he made many changes and managed to score a goal in the 90+2 minute. The goal also inspired his teammates to score another goal which was then scored by Zambo in the 90+7 minute. Of course, Lukaku's presence at Napoli is highly anticipated so that Napoli's front line will be sharper, in addition to being a replacement for Osimhen who was loaned to Fenerbahce.
