Roma probably expected better results from José Mourinho because he is a great coach. That’s why they probably thought if they brought him in, they would probably not have to spend as much money as they would have to with some other coach. But that was the wrong decision. Because José Mourinho is a coach who can bring incredible results if he has the squad that he wants. As he had access to a very restricted fund, he was unable to bring in that good offer a result which they expected.
When Roma brought in De Rossi as a coach, I almost knew that it was not going to work out. Even when he started bringing in good results, I just had a feeling that it was not going to last very long. And that’s exactly what has happened. At the start, he was bringing in pretty good results. But after the “honeymoon period“ was over, he was unable to bring in good results anymore. But it is not fair to judge him after just watching half of the season that he was in charge of the squad. Hopefully, things will change for the better in the next season for him.
I also think Roma thought José Mourinho would do better because he is great coach. But they did not give him enough money to get players he needed. Mourinho usually gets good results when he has right team. But Roma did not have enough money so he could not do as well as they hoped. I also do not think De Rossi was right choice. He did okay at first but then things got worse. It is not fair to judge him after just half a season. I hope he learns from his mistakes and do better next season. Maybe with more time and help he can make things better for Roma.
