Jose Mourinho is a shrewd coach, he is good at frustrating his opponents with the strategies he employs, one of which is the bus parking strategy which will surely frustrate their opponents because they have to penetrate the defense which is heavily guarded by almost all the players on the field.
Sevilla is a team that always manages to be in the Europa League and reach the final, and this season they have done it again. AS Roma have also since been handled by Jose Mourinho they have been able to provide tough resistance. It is difficult to determine who will be the champion this season, because Sevilla and AS Roma have the opportunity to do so.

Keep in your mind that how good the record that has owned by mourinho in all of his european finals. Mourinho has a very good win rate. Parking bus has always become the most important strategy that owned by mourinho. It has proven that so many times if counter attack has become one of most effiecient strategy right now. When the club was always doing defend and its opponent was forget about its weakness and the club can take the advantage from there. Sevilla was a strong team.
My primary concern if this time mourinho is facing sevilla, morinho is also having very good head to head against sevilla.

The team that won the Europa League title will certainly play in the Champions League next season, and not go through the play-offs. So, if Sevilla or AS Roma manage to get the Europa League title this season, then Sevilla or AS Roma are certain to play in the Champions League next season and don't have to go through the play-offs first. Of course, that is a very good result, considering Sevilla and AS Roma this season have also failed to finish in the top four in their respective standings.

But yes, regarding strategy and which team has a good chance of getting the Europa League title this time, I personally would still choose Sevilla. Because after all, I think at this moment we cannot only consider the big name factor of a coach, because at this moment a team that has struggled a lot this season I think has a better chance, and that is Sevilla.

Jose Mourinho must have already prepared what he is going to do against a formidable Sevilla side in the Europa League this season. He must have learned a lot about how Sevilla got rid of Manchester United and Juventus. AS Roma and Sevilla can be said to be the ideal final for now. Even though in attack I see Sevilla as superior, AS Roma also has a strong defensive scheme.

The coach is free to use any strategy as long as it does not violate FIFA rules including the bus parking strategy. This time Mourinho strategy will be tested by Sevilla toughness in the Europa League, Sevilla have managed to prove that they are specialists in the Europa League. Sevilla have reached the Europa League final seven times, six of which have achieved success by winning the trophy.
Both teams still have the same chance to win the Europa League trophy. Apart from wanting to prove the best in this competition, Sevilla and Roma are also aiming for tickets to the Champions League at least via the playoffs if they win the Europa League.

I guess it’s welcome back to Thursday night football for Liverpool next season

I’ve seen all the memes on Twitter laughing at us. The final is in Dublin though, that would be a great party for the fans. Hopefully we will be much better next season, some new players and get back in the top 4. Until then, at least we didn’t end up in the Conference League.

the final match is difficult to predict even though overall this season AS Roma's performance is not that good but this is not a benchmark for them in the final.
sebenacnya Sevilla is also not so good this season, it can be seen in La Liga this season they are still stuck in the middle of the standings.
I don't favor any one team, but realistically Sevilla will face a very tough opponent, AS Roma coach Jose Mourinho who is very experienced on the European stage should not be underestimated.

Sevilla have been able to perform much better than Roma this season. Sevilla has been able to secure victory in most of the matches. Roma performed exceptionally well at the beginning of the season when they brought in Paulo Dybala, but their performances have not been consistent at the moment.

you are right mate. there is no guarantee of victory just because of history but indeed these two teams must rely on strong strategy and performance to win the European league title. Sevilla and Rome have the same opportunity because of course these two teams want to win the title so they will use all their strength to get the European league trophy. I just realized after you reminded me that this is a final that neither Sevilla nor Roma want to waste.
although Sevilla looks guaranteed but I remember that there will always be surprises. and even though Jose Mourinho has brought top teams to win in the big leagues, Jose Luis Mendilibar also doesn't want his players to be defeated in this European league.

Both Roma and Sevilla have reasons from history to believe that they will win the final match. However, no team can win a big title only by relying on history. They must work hard to win a final match and if their players don't have motivation to do that, they will not be winners and champions.

Jose Mourinho so far has 5 final matches in Europe with Porto, Inter Milan, Manchester United and Roma from Champions League, Europa League and Conference League. He has won all of five final matches he joined.

Sevilla, in opposite, have had 6 final matches in Europa League and won them all.
Sevilla holds the record for the most victories, having won the competition six times since its inception.

From those stats, we can see they will start a final match in Budapest with very strong belief that they will be winner after the final whistle. It makes the final will be so interesting between to ambitious teams.

This condition is still possible because regardless of anything they also want good results and they are strong enough with a strategy like this.
Some matches even from the last 16 they tend to play like this and indeed when talking last season also in the Conference League and winning there they did the same thing.
I think as long as they are effective in this way, even though it doesn't seem too elegant, their target is clear, the most important is winning.

because that's the tactic that Mourinho usually uses to hold back the dominance of the opponent and course makes the opposing team frustrated when they always lose the ball when designing an attack. there is nothing wrong with Mourinho's tactics, but maybe we will still see that from the first half. maybe they will plan to counterattack or want to force the opponent to arrive at the penalty shootout. just a guess, but Roma probably won't make much of a difference.

I'm not expecting to see Mourinho parking the bus again as long as Roma aren't the team ahead in the score. But if they score first in regular time or maybe extra time then I would have no doubt that he would do the exact same thing. This is like a lifestyle for him in the end. He did the same thing against Leverkusen and it totally worked out.

But it is a really annoying tactical move by him at the same time. Because when you park the bus you don't play a watchable football. Of course he doesn't have any responsibility to make us enjoy the match. But still I don't see this as real football. Roma have very nice offense players so I wouldn't have fully defended my opponent if I was their manager.

I know everyone expects Sevilla to defeat Roma in the Europa league final because they have a good record competing in the competition but let's not quickly forget that Mourinho is a champion and a man who has proven himself to be a winner in different leagues, underrating him will be a dumb thing to do. This will be the 6th finals across all european competitions.

No, it doesn't mean Sevilla is better than Roma, in fact, Sevilla was never better than Manchester United or even Juventus but in the end, they won both games, something you don't need to be better at to beat the other team, Sevilla just knows how to use the chances they get during the game and that's why they are in the final match in this season.

Jose Mourinho is known as a perfectionist when it comes to parking of the bus and so many occasions has that style of his managerial approach worked for him just like it successfully worked for on Thursday and I don't think he's gonna stop that style of football anytime soon.
For his Roma side to win the UEFA Europa League competition this season, he'll have to win against a defensive disciplined Sevilla. It'll be a very difficult task for Mourinho but I expect them win the competition ahead of Sevilla

Unfortunately the situation is like that. on the other hand, Rima definitely wants that title, despite the pros and cons both within the team and outside, related to the coach and various other things. but right now they only need to focus on the final match later which of course they have to play optimally and solidly. solid both from the point of view of players with players and also with coach and various suitable strategies. it's complex. on the other hand, Sevilla will not be easily beaten either because they are currently in quite high motivation. it will be interesting.

Full defensive has bigger risk strategy because give chance for opponent team dominance with ball possession and has many chance with created attempt, but Jose Mourinho have understand well about his defensive strategy and running well how to make Bayern Leverkusen faced difficult scoring goals on second leg match.

You right about can't guarantee on the final with full defensive strategy will running well, Sevilla has Iva Rakitic can create attempt from shoot out site penalty box and full defensive seems difficult how to anticipation if Sevilla try to create attempt with not only open play but also with free kick. Jose Mourinho have to more variation tactician not only focus with full defensive but how to build faster counter attack.

No, we actually agree much more than you think. Read my post here. You are right that the standings right now are ok and it is not like Roma *** up and is at the bottom of the table, but they played a very good first half of the season and I thought that they are probably going to set some goals higher than 7th rank, which gives them nothing. They had 37 points after 19 games and were 1 point behind 2nd rank. It looked great for them.

When you want to make progress with the club you do need some results and also qualification for the international tournament. It is helping financially, but also when you want to convince a coach like Mourinho to stay or new players to come to your club. This makes it much harder and that is why I said the season would have a bad ending after they started so well.

I mean do you think that Mourinho would spend a year at Roma without any European tournaments? I don't know, I am not sure about that. But winning the final now would help them a lot with many things.

In general, I fully agree with you. Before the season started nobody was expecting from Roma to finish the season in the Champions League qualifier rankings, let alone 1st rank.

It is similar to Arsenal's performance in the Premier League. When you are on a good way and then start failing, even when you finish the season quite well, you are disappointed. I think that's normal and Roma players would not be happy if they lose the final and miss the qualifiers in Serie A.

For myself, I really do think they're capable of winning that Europa League Competition by all means, they have a coach who's done it before at Manchester United, with that experience, he can do this still. I won't be surprised to see both As Roma and Manchester City facing themselves once again when they meet during the next super cup. Sevilla do not look so sharp this season even if they've turned the bad form around, they can't beat Roma.
