It&#8217;s a very difficult, important match, he is important for us, especially without [Paulo] Dybala and [Lorenzo] Pellegrini. Lukaku must play.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>However, touching upon whether Inter fans will be hostile towards Romelu, he added: &#8216;I didn&#8217;t know he was so important in Milan, because what he did, winning the Scudetto, two cups, 200 players in Inter have won a super cup.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/25\/16\/76989475-12671457-Roma_manager_Jose_Mourinho_has_taken_a_dig_at_Inter_Milan_fans_f-a-4_1698249511250.jpg\" height=\"425\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Roma manager Jose Mourinho has taken a dig at Inter Milan fans for their treatment of Lukaku<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/25\/16\/76989465-12671457-The_Belgian_striker_has_scored_five_goals_in_seven_Serie_A_games-a-5_1698249511262.jpg\" height=\"425\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The Belgian striker has scored five goals in seven Serie A games for Roma so far this season<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Afterwards it is interesting to understand why if Lukaku goes from Inter to Roma to help his coach it is a drama, while in the past [Fabio] Cannavaro went from Inter to Juve without problems.
