Calling Lukaku lazy isn't racist let's be clear before we carry on with this discussion, it's not racist to give anyone an adjective. However his point is that calling Lukaku lazy feeds into a negative stereotype about black people especially when you compare him to other strikers like Aguero who wouldn't work as much as Lukaku did on the pitch, this is the issue here. He's pointing out that negative stereotypes have racial connotations attached to them whether people mean to say it or not, he's not saying that it's racist.
Negative stereotyping fuels covert racism.
