Jose Mourinho said he was "calm" ahead of his first competitive game as Roma coach, insisting that taking charge of a team for the 996th time in his career poses little anxiety.

"It's true that this will be my first official match with this club, but it will be my 996th match if I'm not mistaken so I am calm," he told Sky Sport ahead of Thursday's Europa Conference League play-off first leg at Trabzonspor.
