The Everton star, who had earlier missed an easy chance, is delighted to be working closely with Henry, as well as coach Roberto Martinez.

"I think he [Henry] teaches me a lot. He is very direct with me," Lukaku said.

"I know what I'm doing well, when I am doing something wrong he tells me as well. I am very pleased with his help here.

"I think he helps us, the strikers, and also the team to have a certain concentration when we are on the pitch.

"He's won it all so when someone like him talks, you listen.

"We do it with the manager too, he teaches us a lot tactically, offensively and defensively, so I think the future looks bright for us."

Belgium are top of Group H in qualifying after two wins from as many games, ahead of a clash with Gibraltar.
