The “Special One” does not appreciate the way he was thanked by the leaders of AS Roma. He promises a return with “even more confidence”.
On January 16, following a defeat (3-1) against AC Milan, José Mourinho was fired from his position as coach of AS Roma. The Italian club was then stuck in ninth place in Serie A, although it was still in the Europa League race.
This Thursday evening, Daniele De Rossi’s men will face Feyenoord in the play-offs of this competition. The “Special One” regrets not having been able to continue the European adventure. » I will not be in these final stages, not because I have already been eliminated, but because I was “eliminated” by someone who knows little about football. It’s life, full of ups and downs, and I’m growing, despite the dismissal which was as unexpected as it was unfair. But I will come back, with even more enthusiasm and confidence, for these UEFA matches”declared the Portuguese technician during an interview with Pulsesports.
Solid experience in the European Cup
José Mourinho points the finger at the Friedkin Group, led by American billionaire businessman Dan Friedkin. “I have participated in many matches and reached the final several times. These are truly special matches, for us coaches, for the fans and, of course, for the players. So I have enough experience and knowledge to know how to move forward, even when we have opponents whose potential is much greater than ours.”recalls the Lusitanian technician, now 61 years old.
Mourinho’s record in the European Cup is impressive. The former Inter Milan coach won the Champions League twice, the Europa League twice and the Europa Conference League once.
