AS Roma manager, Jose Mourinho responded sharply to Antonio Cassano’s criticism of Roma’s style of play. Roma came out to narrow 1-0 winners against Torino in Serie A on Saturday, thanks to an eight-minute Paulo Dybala penalty.
Mourinho said: “Everyone is free to have their preferences and to make criticisms. But when you talk about others, like Antonio, they are different. He has fun. The others work seriously. It doesn’t interest them if they criticize Roma or Mourinho; they have fun. Cassano played for Roma, Inter and Real.”
“In Madrid, he is remembered for his jacket. With Roma, he won a Super Cup without playing, in Inter, he didn’t even win the Lombardy Cup. You know what? I won with Inter, Real Madrid and Rome. He will have a problem with me. I won’t be with him. I’ll tell him only one thing, watch out, Antonio, you’re 40, and I’m 60.” Mourinho’s remark about Cassano’s jacket was about his apparel when he arrived at Real Madrid in 2006.
Roma are third in the league after back-to-back wins. They are on course to book a Champions League slot for next season, something they haven’t achieved for five years.

What did Antonio Cassano say about Jose Mourinho?
Antonio Cassano said Jose Mourinho is “doing worse than he did at Tottenham” while in charge of Roma. He said that Mourinho doesn’t care about football and does not know how to work or speak.
“Roma is a disaster,” Cassano, who played for the Italian club from 2001 to 2006, said. “He’s been terrible since that 6-1 loss.” Even in the media, where he was always number one, Mourinho is doing worse than Tottenham. Nothing appeals to me.”
“He can return to Real Madrid if Ancelotti does not continue, but if Los Blancos want a coach, they will not call Mourinho for their new project. Mourinho doesn’t give a sh*t about football. He doesn’t like to work. He doesn’t know how to communicate or speak. Let’s not be fooled by his story. I don’t know how he achieves those results because it’s just cinema.” Cassano said that Mourinho was a great coach but is no longer fit to work at the top level.
