Former AS Roma forward Sandro Tovalieri shared his thoughts on the play of Ukrainian striker Artem Dovbyk, who is part of his former team.
Sandro Tovalieri«In Girona, Dovbyk didn’t seem as static to me as he does now in Roma, but it is true that strikers are judged by goals, and last season, the Ukrainian scored 17 goals one way or another.
Dovbyk’s participation in team play leaves much to be desired: he is constantly outplayed, leading to dangerous counterattacks. Furthermore, he isn’t very aggressive in the penalty area.
Psychologically speaking, Dovbyk is also not in the best moment. The boos from the stands are a sign of the fans' discontent, and this, of course, can affect Dovbyk’s self-confidence. In any case, the Ukrainian’s reaction will depend on him,» Tovalieri was quoted by Retesport.
