Roma director Tiago Pinto says the Giallorossi hired Mourinho to “win every game” and blames the international break: “It is impossible to play that many games.”
The Giallorossi face Juventus Turin today at the Allianz Stadium.
It starts at 7.45pm UK time.
When asked about the appointment of José Mourinho in the summer, Tiago Pinto said: “We made him win all the games, the games against big clubs are more adrenaline but they are worth three points like those against Empoli, Udinese and Verona “said he said DAZN.
“This coach has made the Roma stronger with his experience and quality.”
José Mourinho has won four of his last five meetings with Massimiliano Allegri, who has two wins.
The last time they met was in 2018 during a Champions League group match between Juventus and Manchester United.
The Red Devils won 2-1, but the Old Lady had beaten the Premier League giants in the second leg at Old Trafford two weeks earlier.
Tammy Abraham sustained an ankle injury during an international match, but was in the Roma starting XI against Juventus.
“It’s a dream for players to play with their national team, for me it’s a heart problem. Today we sign players, but then they play more games with their national teams, ”added Tiago Pinto.
“I watch every game during the break because I’m always afraid that something can happen, it’s impossible to play so many games in such a short time.”
So far this season, Roma have accumulated 15 points, won five games and lost two.
Juventus, on the other hand, welcomes Roma after three wins in a row in Serie A, but is four points behind the Giallorossi with 11 points in seven games.
