Roma coach Mourinho: This season can be a painful one for body and soul

Roma coach Jose Mourinho says they need to buy in January after a poor first three months of the season.
Mourinho was speaking after Sunday's shock defeat to Venezia.
"Until it becomes mathematically impossible, I want to keep saying fourth place is the target. Roma finished sixth or seventh the last few seasons, the club made an effort over the summer, but it was more reactive transfer activity than building," he said.
"I don't think this squad is stronger than last season. We lost a lot of experience, we had to bring in players to replace those who left, many of them lack experience at this level.
"As a coach with a three-year contract, this season can be a painful one for body and soul, but still a very, very important one for me to understand something I couldn't have understood before I arrived. I already know more than I did two months ago."
