De Rossi took over a mess. Mourinho's tactics were a disaster. Negative, defensive, boring football. De Rossi comes in, changes everything. Attacking football, energy, excitement. Europa League qualification? Thats a huge improvement. Thats results, not talk. The owners, they're smart people. They see what De Rossi's building. It takes time, it takes vision. Its not about winning one trophy, its about building a dynasty. Quality takes time. Mourinho is a great manager, but he was overrated at Roma. Past his prime. De Rossi's the future. He's got fresh ideas, he's connecting with the players. Give him a chance.
Somehow I personally feel you don't like Mourinho generally, because I don't know why you will condemned him this bad, he was not doing so fine at the beginning of last season with the team does not mean he has been really terrible all along, he has been at some point a really good coach especially in his first season at Roma where he was able to give the team a face lift, so entirely he isn't such a bad Coach and I wouldn't want to see him as such either but to say he was just at the verge of still putting his team in place but wasn't clear enough with his plans.
