Heading into the new season, Jose Mourinho's coaching at Roma has become increasingly difficult. In the latest round of the league, Roma lost 4-1 away to promoted Genoa, setting a new record for the team's biggest defeat against Genoa in Serie A. In addition, Roma have only 1 win, 2 draws and 3 defeats in the first 6 rounds, and only 5 points to drop the team to fifth from the bottom of the table, just 2 points away from the relegation zone, which is Roma's worst start in the last 13 seasons.
For manager Jose Mourinho, just five points from six league games is the worst start of his managerial career, down from seven points in 2015/16 when he was in charge of Chelsea.
Mourinho responded after the game, "It's also the worst of my career. However, I also think I led Roma to two consecutive European finals for the first time. ”
For the team's poor record, Roma fans are very dissatisfied, brushing the screen on social platforms, calling for Mourinho's resignation and letting Conte coach, such as "The captain will not defend, the team has no tactics for two years, the coach always shifts the responsibility to others, if you support him, you want the team to suffer." He should be sacked and stripped of Pellegrini of his captain's armband. ”
Now, less than 24 hours later, there is an update on whether Mourinho has been sacked by Roma.
According to Italian media outlet Corriere della Sera, despite Roma's poor start, Mourinho is currently not at risk of being dismissed because the owner Friedkin family has no intention of sacking Mourinho. At the same time, Mourinho himself is not considering resigning, as his contract expires in the summer of 2024.
Roma had no intention of sacking and Mourinho had no intention of resigning, so the latter continued to lead the team.
According to statistics, Mourinho's coaching career has been dismissed by 4 clubs, including Real Madrid, Chelsea, Manchester United, Tottenham, because the contract has not expired, so it has also received a lot of liquidated damages, of which the "Mirror" analyzed the amount of liquidated damages Mourinho has received since he began to coach, a total of 97.67 million pounds, has approached 100 million pounds, looking at football, I am afraid that no other coach can surpass him.
Of course, Roma are not rich clubs, and even if Mourinho is fired early, he will not pay high liquidated damages, but it can make his liquidated damages exceed 100 million pounds.
