ALVISE CAGNAZZO: Jose Mourinho's Roma reign fell apart because his football became predictable and his relations with the club soured... this is their worst season in more than 20 years and his magic touch vanished

Jose Mourinho has been sacked by Roma in his third season at the club - a recurring theme for the Portuguese 'Special One'.

Premier League fans will be familiar with this chaotic character arc. He was sacked in his third season by both Chelsea - in his second stint there - and Manchester United.

Roma have been mediocre this season. They sit ninth in Serie A with 29 points, four points behind bitter rivals Lazio and only one ahead of Torino.

It's a sorry position that shows the terrible poor management - from top to bottom - of the Giallorossi.
