‘Toughest ever’ – Mourinho reacts to Roma’s 4-1 defeat to Genoa
AS Roma manager, Jose Mourinho has described the current season as the “most challenging start” he has experienced in his managerial career.
The Serie A team is positioned in 16th place, having secured only one victory in their initial six league matches.
Mourinho’s team possesses the third-weakest defensive performance in Serie A this season, having conceded a total of 11 goals.
Roma’s most recent setback occurred on Thursday, suffering a demoralizing 4-1 defeat against Genoa.
“It’s also the worst start of my career, but I think it was also the first time in Roma’s history that we played two European finals in a row,” Mourinho told a news conference.
“You can cry internally because it hurts your heart, also because of my relationship with Roma fans it affects me even more, because it is not a personal issue but also a general one that makes me feel this way.”
