Former Lazio striker Paolo Di Canio criticises José Mourinho saying that Roma players are afraid of him and highlighting how the Portuguese coach made ‘the same mistakes at Tottenham.’
The Giallorossi are out of the top four, which was their primary target at the beginning of the campaign.
They were held to a 2-2 draw against Sassuolo yesterday, wasting an opportunity to move closer to Atalanta and Juventus who also picked up a draw in their meeting at the Gewiss Stadium.
Mourinho has heavily criticised his players both inside the dressing room and in front of cameras. Former Italy striker Paolo Di Canio highlights that this is a mistake that the Portuguese coach already made in the past.
“Mourinho hit the dressing room, like all those fans who criticise players who earn millions,” Di Canio told Sky Sport Italia.
“He has fuelled this aspect. He did the same at Tottenham, he blamed the players, but fans over there didn’t buy it. He was one point off Liverpool, then he lost the game against the Reds and collapsed in the following eight matches. Once again, he started to talk about players and referees. Not with this intensity, but the fans told him goodbye.
“The most ardent part of Roma fans still defend Mourinho, but a player has fear in Rome and has fear to talk about it with the coach.
“Roma and Lazio players feel like Brad Pitt when things to well as the radios in the capital always talk about them. However, they are afraid when they lose and live in fear of doing anything.”
The same Tottenham that’s has just loss 3 in a row with Conte?? The same Spurs that sit in 8th place with Conte? Even though Roma are unbeaten in their last 4 games Jose is under pressure but your Italian boy Conte who has not won a game in 3 and play Man city next isn’t even mentioned!! The Anti Jose media will always try to destabilize Mourinho!! Looks like Conte is under more pressure in my eyes!! 🤔
These players are earning a hell of money and they never sulk. It is right to criticise players who are not giving their best. The media mafia against Mourinho is always ready to criticise for doing his job. Many coaches are doing the same but no one talk about them. They said the same thing about Mou at Man Utd. Where are they now? United trusted the PE teacher and let him spent money and never won anything but just pampering the players. Mou was the last one to send them to 3 finals and won two and second in the league. Come Tottenham, he sent them in final just to be sacked a week before. Where is Tottenham NOW? Conte the Italian master 3 defeats but no one is talking about it. Leave Mou alone you biais
