José Mourinho, former Roma coach, gave an interview to Il Giornale in which he also spoke about his time at the Giallorossi, remembering it fondly.
>“I don’t know: for me, Rome was the best place of my career. I’ve never felt such an incredible atmosphere around me.”
>“A football team, the Olimpico always full, the way people feel about the players.”
>The Special One emphasized that the pressure isn’t a problem: “It’s not a drama, because when we won the Conference, the celebration was incredible: not even in my Champions League triumphs have I seen scenes like that. But my Roma is over.”
>Mourinho defends the fans, who are often used as an excuse for the lack of victories: “I don’t want to say anything else. Actually, one thing: no one should blame the Roma fans by saying it’s their fault if we don’t win. The Giallorossi fans are the ones who help the team, no one should touch them.”
