Mourinho always applies the same strategy when dealing with a team that is considered stronger than his team. The bus parking strategy is very familiar to Mourinho, he prefers to defend while occasionally counter-attacking.
Mourinho was unlucky against Napoli, Roma conceded a goal when the game entered the last 10 minutes. Disappointment clearly reflected on Mourinho's face because his plan to get points failed miserably, Roma had to settle for losing points due to not being able to last until the game ended.

This is really making me annoyed. Roma shouldn't play a defensive football against any team in the league. Because they have really effective attacking players currently. Mourinho is just too stubborn to use the same strategy all the time in big matches. There is no way you are beating an in-form team like Napoli by playing passively. We watched it live also as Napoli defeated them 1-0.

Roma were playing even more defensive in the second half and this helped Napoli players find many more chances to score. It was a big sign for a winning goal for Napoli. Osimhen finally found the opportunity and scored wiht an amazing shot to his left corner. Smalling's mistake cost them that goal by the way but he was playing good until then. I'm sure that this loss won't change anything and Mourinho will continue to prefer the same strategy in this kind of matches. Grin

Yes, Jose Mourinho will never change his strategy wherever he is. The Special One is indeed known as a coach who plays negative football in order to achieve positive results. Many tactics make it so boring even though he manages many quality players and also a big team.
