José Mourinho returns to cause controversy in Italy. After having warmed up tomorrow’s derby saying that, while his Roma played against Vitesse, “Lazio is at home smoking a cigarette with Sarri”, today the Portuguese responded very emphatically to Zdenek Zeman. The coach stated that tomorrow the biancocelesti are favorites and that, until now, “Mourinho’s Roma has disappointed”. The former Madrid player, at a press conference, was very tough: “A coach who has won 25 titles cannot answer another who has won Serie B twice and nothing more. I can answer Capello. Zeman? Please…”.
Mourinhowhich left doubts about the goodbye of Pedro (“Let Tiago Pinto tell the story. If he has scored nine goals for Lazio, all the better for them”), spoke with enthusiasm of the atmosphere that is expected in the Olympic: “Finally the tifosi are back, the derbies without them would not be derbies. We are already in a quasi-normality”.
The coach announced that the Roma “he recovered all the injured, except obviously to Spinazzola“, and was clear about the team he wants for tomorrow: “The Roma that I like the most is the one that wins. And tomorrow I want to win”.
