Made up Martinez said that. Shades of Kendall 'mind games' in the 1980s.

Lukaku will feel 10 feet tall going into the Chelsea game, knowing how much Martinez believes in him. Crucial for a young striker like Lukaku - I get the impression he's the type that needs an arm around him at times.

He is on a 5 year mega bucks contract and he needs an arm around him.
FFS Alan Ball will be spinning in his grave if he heard that

No he wouldn't, because alan ball was a firm believer in having an arm around a player. So.. please.

everyone knows the size of the contract is in direct correlation to the amount of self-motivation the player has.
stupid comment.

Would he, though?

Does being rich automatically make you confident and invincible to any emotional issues?

One of the press stupid comments I hope!

To all those posters who think I dont rate Romalu, I hope he bangs in a hat trick today and shuts both myself and Jose up.
I will be delighted to see it, come on the blues.
