Tammy Abraham scored twice as AS Roma put on a counter-attacking clinic to stun Atalanta with a 4-1 win in Bergamo on Saturday and climb to fifth place in Serie A.
Jose Mourinho's side finished the game with 29 per cent possession and eight shots to Atalanta's 17, but they were far more efficient with their chances.
'Yes, I think so,' Mourinho told DAZN when asked if it was the best Roma have played this season.
'We showed fantastic spirit. The players knew that we couldn't be in control for 90 minutes against Atalanta. They were strong in every perspective.'
Roma moved to 31 points, six behind the Bergamo club in third, and ended a six-game league winning streak by Gian Piero Gasperini's side.
