This is a group of professional players that must be more self confident. We analysed the match against Udinese. We could have played better even if the result highlighted the negative aspects of our match, we have shown some good things and surely deserved more. They played very defensive football, we hade some difficulties building up the play&#34;.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;SUBSTITUTIONS AGAINST UDINESE&lt;br /&gt;  &#34;When you lose you are always wrong. We are at the beginning of the season and some players are still not 100% fit. We are used to seeing Bonaventura play always great matches but we must accept if he plays one game below expectations.

I think that the project we are working on can actually give us more confidence&#34;.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;SINGLE PLAYERS&lt;br /&gt;  &#34;Sosa? He played a great match but then he was tired. Calabria? He is a player we have decided to keep. We have 5 players for only 2 places available on the wings. He is young and can play different roles, therefore he can surely be very useful to the team. He can and must improve, he lacks a bit of continuity in the 90 minutes. He is a great player to play counter-attack, but we should let him grow&#34;. &lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;PLAYERS THAT ARE CERTAIN TO MAKE IT IN THE STARTING BIRTH?&lt;br /&gt;  &#34;&lt;strong&gt;Everybody here must prove they deserve to play&lt;/strong&gt;, starting from training.

Sunday we got very close to scoring a goal from a set piece. We should have done better. It&amp;#39;s a pity we didn&amp;#39;t manage to score, but I am sure that with training we will improve&#34;.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;THE GOAL IS TO CLIMB UP IN THE TABLE&lt;br /&gt;  &#34;After two defeats in a row &lt;strong&gt;we need to climb up the table&lt;/strong&gt;, and we will do wverythin we can to win Friday and Tuesday against Lazio.
