Jose Mourinho, the Portuguese coach who leads Roma, lost a lot of nerves after the team’s defeat by Inter (2 : 0) in the Italian Cup.
According to the Italian press, he quite insulted his football players in the locker room.
“I don’t know why, when we play against Inter, we look naked for the first ten minutes. And I want to know why we fought against Milan in the first 10 minutes. All of you. No one is excluded from this. I want to know why you have shown yourself as small for two years against big clubs. If we are small, the referees will always look at us as small,” he said, “special” to his players.
At the conference, when he commented on those events, Mourinho answered.
According to the stories I heard, some would think that I would come with a plum on my eye and a swollen face from the fight. And that is a big lie. The players told me they like the way I work. I have no secrets with them; we tell each other the truth in person. The players tell me they don’t want me to change. Also, I tell them that I will not change because they asked me to, “said Mourinho.
