Mourinho can't guarantee his stay as Roma boss, a bit tired
2023-06-01 13:26Roma lost to Sevilla on penalties in the Europa League final, and manager Jose Mourinho said that despite accusing Anthony Taylor of refereeing "like a Spaniard", some of his decisions were "Scandalous" and said he hoped not to encounter him again next season, but he and his team left the game with dignity.
It was Mourinho 's first defeat in a European final, having won five in a row before. After the game, Mourinho said he was "tired of being the only one saying we were stolen".
Mourinho also said he was not guaranteed a continuation as Roma boss and demanded a change, but insisted he has not discussed his future with any other clubs.
"I can't say I'll be here next season. I'll be on holiday on Monday and then we'll talk. I told the club owners that if I start talks with other clubs, I'll tell them. As of now, no other clubs have been in touch. Me. Now is the time for me to talk to the club owners. The club owners should talk to me too."
Mourinho said he had to defend his players, including one involving a potential handball by Fernando that didn't award Roma a penalty, while VAR overturned an initial decision given to Sevilla on Roger Ibanez against Lucas. • The decision to award a penalty for a foul by Ocampos.
The player himself received thirteen yellow cards, plus at least three more were given to those on the Roma bench, including Mourinho himself, for putting pressure on the referee, but Mourinho claims he was wronged by the so-called Rob is angry.
Mourinho said: "I must say that we are used to this situation, but this is a European final, facing this kind of referee, it is difficult to accept. If we talk about refereeing situations, not two or three, but It's a lot, and that's not counting the big decisions. People who have been around football for years realize right away what's going on."
"Pellegrini went down in the box and got a yellow card; Ocampos did the exact same thing and got no card. It's a scandal. VAR called the referee, shame on Ocampos , but no card. Lamela scored a goal in the penalty shootout and deserved a second yellow card, but didn't. I told my players, you can lose a game, but you can never lose your dignity .Today we lost, but we didn't lose our dignity. I've won five finals, but I've never been as proud as I am today."
Mourinho went on to joke: "We missed two penalties, then Taylor and VAR ." He continued: "We couldn't help but worry about what was going to happen...but that was it. My players deserved more. I deserved more. They fought and deserved more. I'm kind of tired of being the coach, the manager, the media executive, being the image that says we've been robbed. I'm tired of it all. If I could make it Contribute more and I will stay."
"Next year we won't be in the Champions League, which is great news, it might sound contradictory, but it's good. We're a young team and we're not ready for the Champions League. Since Taylor is so good Referee, let's hope he and his mistakes are only in the Champions League and not the Europa League, where we are, because we are more humble than that."
