The former Giallorossi director went on to state that he supported the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603 player and had advised the board to hang on to the player-turned-manager’s services.
Montella became the caretaker manager of AS Roma after Claudio Ranieri was given the sack due to his poor performances. Montella took over and steadied the ship after their
poor start to the season. There was a high probability of Montella staying at the club to take over the duties as the permanent manager.

Despite taking the side to a decent finish after February till the end of the season, Luis Enrique was preferred to the services of Vincenzo Montella. AS Roma were taken
over by American investors in the summer, and they felt that Enrique would give them the brand of football they envisioned Roma playing.
Enrique was the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 B Team head coach, and the owners wanted an influx of the style of Barcelona in the Giallorossi’s style of football. Montella was snapped up by
Catania after Roma opted for the services of the former Barcelona star.
However, the former AS Roma director stated that he wanted Montella to take over the reins of AS Roma, and mentioned:
“I asked Roma to give him a chance when we were looking for a Claudio
Ranieri replacement. There are times when you need the courage to try new ideas and I think it was the correct decision. I advised Roma to keep hold of him for this season too, but a different solution was opted
for.”
AS Roma have had a start-stop season so far, however, they have managed to string together a couple of good results. They are currently in the sixth position of the Serie
A and trail the last Champions League qualifying place by seven points. They can still make it to the Europa League as they trail http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003 by a single point.
Montella has transformed Catania and they now sit in the eighth position in the Lega. He has been so impressive in the deployment of his troops and the tactical prowess
shown by the Italian throughout the season has ignited interest from clubs such as Napoli, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan.
