Roma vs Feyenoord in the final, and my hopes are on Feyenoord
both semi-finals were tough, Leicester and Marseille had their times, but did not have the gut to pull it through
TBH, did not expected much from Conference league this season, but whole competition came up great, and small clubs have their time running for the trophy
congrats to both finalists

Since 1991 this is the first time they will be playing a final.
Joe's Mourinho knows what he wants, had a little Dix at Tottenham for sacking him.
He can deliver very well in the final that is no doubts about him, I hope he doesn't get he's players injured.

Mourinho can make history if he wins this competition, and in its first edition. In fact, he has already made history, reaching five European finals with four different clubs.
If you win this competition, you will be the first coach to win the main European competitions: UEFA Cup, Europa League, Champions League and now you can win the Conference League.

I see that the bookmakers have not yet published team quotes for the upcoming final and are not yet accepting bets on this event. Most likely the favorite will be Roma.
By the way, has it already been explained somewhere why Mourinho was crying after the final whistle? I saw that he was so overwhelmed with emotions that he could not restrain himself. Is it because the match was tense, I did not think that Mourinho is capable of such emotions in such a tournament.
Roma has an emotional coach but with that too, then Mou certainly has ambitions to become the first winner of the Europa Conference League title. Moreover, Roma's opponent in the final is Feyenoord, although I also don't underestimate Feyenoord but it seems that Mou does have a better chance of winning in the final match. Feyenoord is not a weak team and they have strong gameplay I admit that, but I believe Mou as a coach who already has many titles, so I believe Mou has a strategy to overcome opponents with Feyenoord's tough gameplay.
I saw how Romanista welcomed Mourinho to the club last summer. I watched his speech about reasons he joined Roma and his plan for the club. After nearly a season, we can see his love and his contribution, dedication for the club. The emotional moment after the referee whistle is just another evidence of his love.I see he has helped to improve general quality of Roma from attacking to defensive system, especialy in defensive zone. They have one final match and if they win it, they will be qualified for Europa League next season. Mourinho wants and urges his players to get maximum points from last three matches in Serie A in order to secure their fifth position. It does not only equal to a ticket for Europa League but also will help to increase the confidence in the club. Fifth position in this season, and they can aim at higher one next season.
Roma appear to be the favourites, but nothing is certain in the finals. The beauty of football is exactly here. Contrary to expectations, I think Roma will lose the match. For the match that will take place in 3 weeks, I hope there will be no injuries and the teams will be on the field with the full squad.

Don't know whether to crack a grin or just nod in approval reading Mourinho's post-match interview.
Gotta hand it to the guy though, he goes to a club, and he takes them to a European final (and wins it). He's the first coach now to be in the final for all the different (modern) renditions of UEFA competitions, bet you he's pretty chuffed up about it all.
Tammy's goal taken them to it, too.
And yeah, I dislike his tactics and strategies but track record alone proves he's the kind of guy who knows how to win cups. This has got to be Roma's.

I think Roma is a bigger contender for the championship, I think they will win. But there is still about 3 weeks into the match and that is quite a long time, there is a lot of time for the teams to prepare. Therefore, it is not easy to predict who will be the champion yet.
It should not be forgotten that both teams are strong
Roma will win, Believe me Mourinho do not really bottled finals like that instead he tells his players not to keep the ball too much in their own half and try to initiate countering attack, score a goal and defend it with your life's. The rejected stone has now become a cornerstone. What a game, what a heroic performance from Tammy. Hopefully they will win I just like Jose, he was so emotional after the win against Leicester It should not be forgotten that both teams are strong

I think Mourinho's main goal is to do well in the conference league. Roma's performance in Serie A is not good. They could not even win the last 3 matches. However, Roma's performance is good enough in every match of the conference. In the final they will play against Feyenoord. The Feyenoord team qualified for the finals by winning against teams like Marseille and Ajax. This team is not weak. Winning the title will not be easy for Roma.

Feyenoord isn't going to be an easy task for Roma in the final, making it to the finals is an indication for that. However, I do think Roma would win the trophy, these are kind of games Mourinho would give everything to win.
Roma aren't doing too well this season in the league, and are only still competing for a place in Europa League next season, but I think Mourinho haven't a terrible job, looking at the squad he's got and it's just his first season at the club.
in the semifinals, Feyenoord performed well by beating Marseille in the first leg and holding a draw in the second leg. in the Feyenoord, League performed quite satisfactorily. it won't be easy for Roma to beat Feyenoord.Roma aren't doing too well this season in the league, and are only still competing for a place in Europa League next season, but I think Mourinho haven't a terrible job, looking at the squad he's got and it's just his first season at the club.
Roma's own performance is not so good in Serie A. Mourinho may bring Roma look good with his perfect tactics. but sometimes Roma players don't do it well.
however, Mourinho gave something good for Roma's achievement. and they have a great chance to lift the trophy.
Jose is known as the special one. That's because he knows what he is doing. Roma has just been revived and is ready to take off again. It is the first time in thirty years that Rome has reached an official final in the European Conference League with a team that can hardly be called ambitious or modest. Jose is expected to win the European Conference League for the first time.

I feel that this is the revival of Mourinho because his reputation had taken a hit when he was managing clubs in the premier league, and now I hope that Roma wins it for him. Furthermore Abraham was a shrewd signing by him, but I believe that next season he’ll be signed by a premier league team so I hope that he at least leaves by winning this trophy.

Hopefully they ( AS Roma) can successfully get their hands on that trophy, couple of players in the same team/squad has won the UEFA Europa league competition win him Manchester United, ohh yeah, Chris Smalling and Henhrikh Mhkitaryan. Would be the second time they win something with the special one.
Winning this will also bring back he's reputation high leveled as he's been bad over some two to three years now! I'll say less, hopefully they get what they want. Congratulations in advance.
I don't find the purpose of this cup but I'm happy for Roma.
This edition, the first one it will be the only one people will remember in the following years.

Congratulations to both the tactician Jose Mourinho and Roma, they have successfully reached the UEFA Conference League finals.
Jose Mourinho is now the first manager to make it to the Champions League final, UEFA Champions League final and also the UEFA Conference League finals. As he was seen in years as he guide them successfully.
Two players that have indeed impressed for Roma in this competition are both Tammy Abraham and Zaniolo. It's a good thing too see them consistent over the past game's prior to this! I'm sure rooting for them to win in the finals, Jose will sure get this one wrapped up!

Congratulation for Jose Mourinho become the first manager on the world success lead to final on Champion League, Europe League and UEFA Europa Conference League. I think not bad with AS Roma achievement until the final UEFA Europa Conference League because begin several match with bad result and ever loss on group stage but AS Roma looks serious performance when knock out stage. Although UEFA Europa Conference League as third level UEFA league competition but I think still become the only one chance for Jose Mourinho giving first trophy for AS Roma in this season after long time can't get any trophy yet.

It's just that the Mourinho figure itself has a special meaning here and because of this there is a certain information background. Everyone knows perfectly well that Mourinho is able to create and maintain a stir around his name and it turns out that there is more noise around the Conference League final than the Europa League final, which should be higher in status. However, this can also be largely explained by the fact that this is the first draw of the Conference League and the winner will go down in the annals of history as the first winner of the tournament. By the way, Mourinho has already made history as the first coach who took his teams to the finals of the Champions League, Europa League and Conference League.
Yeap, it is true and Mourinho already said about it in the press conference after the first leg match. He said "It would have been a loss 5-6 months ago". I agree with him because in early or middle of the season, AS Roma were more vulnerable in big matches. They managed to scored goals and have acceptable matches but their defense system were weak and collapsed in important moments that caused defeats in the end.After a few months, Mourinho has improved it successfully and considerably. AS Roma has achieved the final match because of their efforts and improvements. Well done!
Let's look at match statistics
You can compare statistics in first leg and second leg matches. In terms of ball possession, there is not many difference and Roma with the defensive, counter-attacking approach from Mourinho have less than 40% ball possession in both matches. The point is Leicester City created less shots in the second match. Even if you only watch the match highlight video, you will see that Leicester City did not have too many opportunities in Rome.
