Roma had a desperate start to the season, winning only five of a possible 18 points in Serie A, so Jose Mourinho went on the offensive against the Italian media, which did not spare criticism after the debacle in Genoa on Thursday (4:1).
"Vučica" had an exciting transfer window, serious reinforcements such as Romelu Lukaku, Renato Sanchez, Leandro Paredes arrived... But the games and results are not good in the first forty days of the season.
"I'm not the problem at Roma. I just don't accept that because it's not true," Mourinho said.
The fans are not satisfied, neither is Mourinho, who says that he had an offer this summer that was difficult to refuse. Saudi Al Hilal reportedly wanted him and offered him an annual salary of 30 million euros.
"I had the biggest offer in history when it comes to coaches. I turned it down because I promised to stay at Roma. I have a contract until the summer of next year and I want to see it through to the end. Only the club leaders have the right to tell me that I finished here before my contract expires. If it's up to me, I'm ready to keep the word I gave. I'm not afraid even of the fans' whistles," Mourinho added.
Roma welcomes Frosinone on Sunday evening from 20.45:7 p.m. and chases the second triumph of the season. She scored the first against Empoli when it was 0:XNUMX.
"We have to be brave and be ready for the audience's reaction - whether it's an expression of dissatisfaction or support. It will be difficult, there is pressure, but we have to react," said the Portuguese.
