Antonio Cassano commented on the Inter vs. Roma match on Bobo TV while saying some really harsh word about Roma’s coach Jose Mourinho
“There’s not much to say about Inter; they were outstanding in every aspect. They could have scored more goals, but they made some wrong passes. They had a great game and deserved to win.
Thuram has had a fantastic start to the season and is positively surprising me. Asllani came on well, Barella is regaining his form. Inter didn’t suffer, except for Cristante‘s chance. Obviously, the team is strong, they have clear ideas and confidence, playing in their comfort zone.”
His focus then shifted to the Giallorossi: “Even when I used to play, Mourinho was always like this. He prepares mentally strong players not to leave him and then attacks them. When I keep saying that Mourinho doesn’t give you anything, it’s because of this.
He’s good with champions in personal communication; he’s good at making you feel important. But as football evolves, strong teams don’t buy into it anymore. The big clubs don’t want him anymore. It happened with United, Tottenham, and it will happen with Roma. It’s easy to coach champions, but we want to see football.
Lukaku? I felt sorry for him. Beyond the difficulty of the boos, he was isolated up front in an undignified manner. You can’t expect Roma to play like that. In the post-match, Mourinho shifts and uses his communication strategy. Four or five idiots follow him. Sooner or later his luck will run out.
Roma can’t string three passes together. In the past, he won with great teams but with bad football. but eventually, football evolves. His communication is fake. At San Siro, it was an unworthy attempt, with everyone behind the goal.
Since Mourinho arrived, Roma has had the most red cards and yellow cards. On Saturday, they simply played for a 0-0 draw. This game was horrible in my opinion. A player with a strong personality destroys everything in the locker room when they see such a mess.
He tries to make it easier for and sweeten the players by working a lot on their minds. But that style of football is gone. Sooner or later, people realize they’re being fooled.”
