Belgium’s DH says Martinez has distributed new rules, in English, to the Belgium squad. It sounds pretty simple stuff, with one rule being no smoking, but AS Roma’s Radja Nainggolan likes a cigarette, something confirmed by former manager Marc Wilmots.

Wilmots had previously been quoted as saying: “Yes, Radja smokes. It’s a habit in France and Italy, where many players do it. I am flexible on that level. It’s his body and as long as his performances on the pitch are to his best, it not a problem for me.
     Under Martinez, Nainggolan will have to be careful, or smash up his room. There’s also no alcohol, and if a player is even a few seconds late for training, he’ll be fined €1000.
