Jose Mourinho has explained why he is "annoyed" at Roma, despite his side claiming a 2-0 win in Serie A on Sunday night.
Check Out: Mourinho Addresses Future After 'Worst Start' To A Season
The Rome-based outfit got back to winning ways on Sunday, beating Frosinone thanks to goals from Romelu Lukaku and Lorenzo Pellegrini.
Before the result on the weekend, the Portuguese manager's single victory in six league matches was the worst start he had ever made to a season, leading to questions about his future at the club.
Reacting to Roma's win late on Sunday, though, the former Chelsea and Manchester United boss bemoaned how quickly his reputation has taken a knock in Italy following his impressive first two campaigns in charge.
"I already explained it yesterday, three months ago I was the loved one, the wanted one," Mourinho told DAZN.
"Three months later it's no longer the case, because I have to say we had a horrible start to the championship in terms of results, but also multi-factorial. It annoyed me.
"I knew that the boys would demonstrate that we are a team, that we are united. I am very happy that they won the match because it is not easy after you lose a match like we lost the last one.
"You have to be emotionally balanced, you have to have the mental structure to enter the field, but I must also say that we have never felt the support of our fans falter and I have to thank them."
