Former Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham admits his move Jose Mourinho's Roma has been an eye opener.
Abraham was asked what Mourinho has taught him during his time at Roma.
"Just to be a monster, really," he says. "One of the things he said was I was too much of a nice player and that you have to show that aggressiveness as you are getting older as a striker.
"It's not always about being nice on the pitch. You need that character, you need that presence to frighten defenders and I think that's something I'm learning and getting better at."
He added: "One thing I didn't expect was it to be so tough. Players are very smart and defending is very important in the Italian style of play. In England we are so used to attack, attack, attack and for me it's about learning the other way, how to break down those teams.
"It's part of the learning curve and you see the likes of Lukaku who have gone abroad and come back to England and for me it's about developing myself."
