THE BIGGER PICTURE: The report also mentions that Mourinho and his staff have also joked about Orecchio’s scouting abilities, as Roma's training ground is wrapped in sponsor banners to prevent outsiders to take a look at the practice sessions. However, to be absolutely sure, Mourinho sent his assistant Nuno Santos to take a walk around the training ground to see if it was actually possible to have a sneak peek by hiding between the hedges.
