"Jose [Mourinho] has told me just to be a monster," Tammy Abraham said, via Eurosport, back in November 2021, just months in to his time at AS Roma. "I think one of the things he said was that I was too much of a nice player and that you have to show aggressiveness as a striker as you're getting older.
"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.
"It's always tough when you move to experience a different country and different culture. I felt the sooner I settled in the better and started learning different types of football and different styles."
