He is a winner and he scores goals

Unlike some of the players Chelsea currently have on their books, Lukaku wants to win. He wants to play. He has the mentality of a player Chelsea need.

Someone like Fernando Torres – who former boss Carlo Ancelotti called the ‘weakest character’ he has ever managed in a football dressing room does not.

Lukaku is passionate, vibrant and even when the going gets tough, does not give up. Yes he might miss chances at times, but so did Drogba.

He also feels he has a lot to prove to Chelsea and Mourinho – and will stop at nothing to do it. Better he does that for Chelsea than against them!
