Italian media football-italia reported that Sabatini, former director of Rome and director of present-day Salenitana, commented that Rome is a special place. 'Mourinho will try to do better, but he certainly can't do it with a player like Oliveira. Sabatini metaphorically says that now Roma's players, after Mourinho's arrival, are like being punished by being tied to a burning post until they are burned.

In an interview with the media, Sabatini first spoke about Vlahović's move to Juventus. In Italian football, Fiorentina and Juventus are not on good terms, so Sabatini is not impressed with the transfer. "It was a despicable decision, unbearable, how could you be so disrespectful to a club that trusted you so much? Donnarumma is the same in Milan, and it's time to look at character. ”
Speaking about roma, where he used to work, Sabatini said: "I had arguments with the former president of Rome, Palota, but we at least had one conclusion, and that was that we had built a Roma team that could play well. But how could I accept such a thing when Marotta subsequently appointed Baldini as his personal adviser? Yes, Baldini didn't interfere with my work, but everything turned into chaos and the scouts didn't know who to talk to about their work. ”
Speaking about the impression of Mourinho, Sabatini replied: "He is a successful performer, but what I want to do is real football work. Maybe Mourinho will say that he won everything and I didn't win anything. Mourinho is a particularly suitable coach for a certain type of team, with clear goals. I now feel that Roma's players, after Mourinho came, were like being tied to a stake and punished until they were burned to death. Roma is a special place and Mourinho will try to do better, but he certainly can't do it with a player like Oliveira. ”
