Roma coach Mourinho: Allegri? There's respect and esteem | OneFootball

Roma coach Jose Mourinho says they're ready to meet Juventus today.

Mourinho admits he is wary of facing a Juve now led by Max Allegri.

"There's an unusual concept," Mourinho said at a press conference. “Those who care more about the results are those who win.

“It seems that caring about the results is negative, but it's actually the other way around. For me it's the wrong conception.

“I have won and Max too, this must be seen in a positive way, not as something negative. It's not a battle between me and Max, but between Roma and Juve.

“It's not me against Max. It's a pleasure to greet him before the game. There's respect and esteem. We have seen each other in many conferences, there's no great friendship but I like Max as a person, and we are on good terms.

“It will be a pleasure to see him and I'm happy that he's back to work. A coach like him can't spend too much time on holiday."
