They are not gradually falling back to brilliant form. They are actually miles and miles away from brilliance and this result against the last team of the Serie A table standings only came to happen because Roma had two shots on target and both hit the back of the net. In the entire game they had two shots on target, that was all they had against the weakest team in Serie A.
There is a fact we can not deny, they are getting better results in two latest matches than previous matches with Mourinho. We also can not ignore another fact that in previous matches, Roma and Mourinho had to play against stronger clubs so losing points is not something strange. With two winnings, De Rossi and Roma can move onward with more confidence about themselves and they need to beat strong clubs to prove that they are ready for top four. Brilliant form is not important and the ultimate purpose is joining top four.
You will never find a top coach that would glorify a bad performance because of a good result unless it was a knockout game where all that counted was the win. It is the win that counts, but coaches want to see progress besides the results because they know that bad performances will give you good results in a very limited number of cases. Instead, coaches want reliable and stable performances because that is the recipe for long term success.
If you say we can't deny the fact that they got better results, true. But we can't deny the fact that they didn't play any better than before is also true. If you disagree and you are interested, let me know how exactly Roma performed better in the last two gams apart from the results and what makes you positive for the next games based on the last two games except for the results.

De Rossi has only brought two wins for Roma and I don't think we should say if he is able to handle Roma now, there are still a few matches to see the true quality of De Rossi and if he is able to overcome big teams later, if yes then it is appropriate for us to Hats off to him, currently Roma have only beaten two small teams and that cannot be a benchmark for De Rossi success.
Apart from that, two weeks after Morinho left, of course Roma game scheme has not changed much and of course the Roma players are still using the same tactics and style of play from Mourinho has been implementing it all this time. De Rossi only handles the team that was formed by Mourinho and so far we have never praised Mourinho when he wins against small teams but it is actually different when now it seems like De Rossi is doing more when he is only able to win 2-1 against Salernitana, isn't that not fair?
I think Mourinho dismissal from Roma was not because he was unable to handle Roma, but because of his bad relationship with management who did not want to provide a budget to buy decent players for the Roma squad.
