Smalling puts past differences with ex-Man Utd boss Mourinho to one side amid Roma 'excitement'

The England international came in for criticism from a Portuguese while at Old Trafford, but they are pulling together in Italy
Chris Smalling holds no grudge against Jose Mourinho and is putting any past differences with the former Manchester United boss to one side amid much "excitement" at Roma.

One of the most decorated coaches in world football finds himself back in Serie A after taking in spells with Chelsea, United and Tottenham in the Premier League.

During his time at Old Trafford, Mourinho once questioned Smalling's willingness to play through pain - when the England defender was ruled out of action through injury - but the pair are pulling in the same direction after being reunited at Stadio Olimpico.
