Roma manager, Jose Mourinho, fired back at journalist Marco Juric, during a press conference ahead of their away trip to Venezia in Serie A on Sunday.
Mourinho’s men have been struggling recently, winning just two of their last five league games.
They have now slipped 12 points behind leaders Napoli and AC Milan.
Juric asked Mourinho: “It’s been six months since you signed for Roma, would you change anything that you’ve done in terms of choices, statements, requests or anything that you’ve done?”
Mourinho replied: “You are here in practically every press conference, but either you are very intelligent and you want people to think you are not or you are not intelligent at all.
“I want to think you’re intelligent but you like to do what you do.”
