paradoxically Roma went better when Mourinho wasn't there, that is the special one
the most expensive and useless trainer in the world
I'm sorry to extinguish the enthusiasm of those who praise this character, but they are not capable
and I'm not saying it because I don't like him, look at Roma's position in recent years
he didn't do anything more than what Roma already did
That is literally the reason why he is their manager. If the dude was "the special one" then he would have been managing a big club, and yes he was great at some point in his career, winning league titles and champions league and all that, he was known as one of the best at a point. However, for the past 5 years or so he has been given chances left and right and he always got bad results and that is why he has been sacked.
Roma is not a huge club, sure a known club but not a huge club, and that is why Mourinho went from "the team that may win the league title and champions league in a single season" to a team "should be fighting for a UCL position hopefully" level.
As you rightly said, Roma is a well-known club but not a big club, but they have a serious project, and the investments made in recent years also demonstrate it, the guy "the special one" it's true that he hasn't improved things much but in alternative led them to victory in a European competition, it may not be a great record in the eyes of many but for Roma fans it was an important milestone. However, it is a trophy that brings a little more prestige for Roma
