José Mourinho stymied in press conference
On the eve of the commitment against Frosinone, José Mourinho è introduced himself in a press conference: "We want and we must win, we must not look for any kind of alibi. We had three games before we finished the market where that one point left us in a situation that I think left many players with a burden. I thought after Empoli and Sheriff that weight came off the shoulders of the players. That wasn't what happened.
Some Roma fans would like his exoneration: "During the vacation period I had the biggest, craziest job offer a coach has ever had in the history of soccer and I turned it down for the word to my players, to Friedkin and to the fans. Three months later it seems that I am the problem, but I do not accept it. I don't read or watch TV, but I have friends and associates who get these rumors to me. I am not the problem. Things are multifactorial. I have given my word and will keep it; until June 30, 2024".
"I expect more" from myself, but also from the players. If I take two goals from defensive ball I think that I trainò defensive balls. Sì that I expect more from them. These guys are my friends and I am friends with them. I enjoy working with them" concluded Mourinho.
