Udinese have decided to renew their trust in Marco Davis, a player who had a lackluster start to the season but who coach KostaRunjaic believes is still ready to make his contribution. The episode was mentioned in an interview with *Il Messaggero Veneto*, where the technical chief praised the attacker's resilience and underlined the importance of constant support, both on the pitch and on a psychological level.
Runjaic noted that although Davis has not yet found his most consistent form, his presence is crucial to the team's balance. "The player doesn't feel overwhelmed by the absence of goals; his performance isn't affected," he said, adding that the striker continues to try, even if he sometimes fails to deliver. The coach also highlighted that the presence of teammates like Zaniolo can relieve the pressure on Davis, allowing him to play with less responsibility.
The coach then spoke about other key players, such as Chakvetadze, calling him "a little underrated" but with potential that can lead to continuity of performance. “I believe its growth depends on its ability to maintain consistent performance,” he said. Runjaic concluded that although Giornano still has room for improvement, the player has interesting elements that can translate into positive results.
For the next match against Roma, Runjaic has outlined an aggressive game strategy. “Roma will try to dominate with their usual intensity, but we must avoid conceding,” he said. He suggested facing the match with courage, aiming to exploit the opportunities and obtain a result which, despite having a stronger team, can still be advantageous. Regarding the match against Venezia, he underlined that the opposing team tends not to give its all, but that it remains a compact team with a good ability to verticalize.
With the match against Roma scheduled, Udinese is trying to get back on track after a difficult start to the season. Coach KostaRunjaic reiterated the need for continuous support for Davis and outlined a tactical approach that aims to exploit the opponent's weaknesses. The result of this match could be decisive for the recovery of the Friulian team and for confirming the trust placed in Davis and the rest of the squad.
