José Mourinho, the coach of Roma, was not kind to Houssem Aouar, Thursday after the Europa League match.
AS Roma failed to secure its qualification for the 8th round of the Europa League on Thursday evening, sharing the points with Servette de Genève. In the eyes of José Mourinho, the culprit has already been found. This is his Franco-Algerian midfielder Houssem Aouar.
Mourinho no longer has confidence in Aouar
Starting as in every C3 match, Aouar only stayed on the field for 55 minutes. The Portuguese technician chose to relieve himself before game time. And for good reason; he was not at all happy with his performance and his attitude on the field.
At the end of the game, “The Special One” did not hesitate to criticize the former Lyon player. “We had some important chances, but the start of the second half was something that happens to us too often. It’s a shame that there is no camera in our locker room at half-time, because every time, I tell them clearly that the opponents who play at home and who are down by one goal will to fight. Once again, we were superficial in our attitude, in our interpretation of this moment of the match. There are players who, once again, missed the opportunity to prove themselves, like Aouar”said at the microphone of Sky Italia.
“There are several who are on the bench and who come into play in Serie A with a great attitude, then in the Europa League they come into play with this lethargic attitude, as if they are not used to being on the bench. bench and do not improve the game”, added Mourinho in an uplifted tone.
Aouar has therefore apparently exhausted his credit with his Gialorosso coach. While he has only been at the club for a few months, the Algerian international no longer has the trust of his Lusitanian technician and it would be surprising to see him stay in the Eternal City for more than one season.
