Lukaku, 24, has been frustrated with service during a seven-match goal drought in the last month for United.
And United ended up losing their second Premier League match after poor defending allowed Alvaro Morata to score the winner last Sunday.
Lukaku was said to be one of the most vocal in the post-match inquest among the squad minutes after the defeat.
He was making his first return to his old club since joining United in a £75million deal after it looked like he would be re-joining Chelsea from Everton.

But Lukaku got on the scoresheet for his country on Friday with a double against Mexico in a friendly, making him Belgium’s joint-highest scorer.
He said: “At a young age I’ve achieved something great like this which is really good but there is a lot of work to be done and I’m relishing the challenge.”
The Frenchman linked up with international team-mates ahead of their win over Scotland and could be back in time to face Newcastle later this month.
