If Jose Mourinho wants to get Romelu Lukaku firing again, he needs his £75million striker to reach boiling point.
I am not talking about a petulant reaction to a penalty-box wrestle with an opponent, but rather his performance.
It might be the right moment to leave him out against Watford on Tuesday. Lukaku has scored a single goal in his last 10 games in all competitions.
Give him some space so that he comes back an angry man, with some fight and determination.
