That's laughable for sure...
I mean, Verratti going for less than Dybala? I know the papers are hyping this Argentinian kid up crazy but him going for more than an elite central midfielder? From PSG no less?
Not happening. And, let's be honest, if Dybala was Italian we wouldn't even be talking about signing him for more than 20m. That South American hype train is real. And less than one year removed from Iturbe hype that soon flopped?
Verratti would cost much more than 30M, true.
Watch more of Paolo Dybala, though. Get BeIn for 20 bucks a month, you can commit one month at a time. Great streams of every game in the league in English (plus every Ligue 1 match, ever Liga match, CONMEBOL action, etc.).
This isn't about the South American hype train, the kid is going to be sublime. I think another team will pay 40M this summer, which is why I'm praying Beppe can find a couple parts to include, and seal this deal ASAP. We'll probably miss out.
In terms of productivity, even if you just counted his goals so far this season, he's already more productive than Iturbe was all of last year. Iturbe had 8 goals, and 4 assists. It's not like he blew the doors off the league, and remember, Iturbe's stats were padded because he played with Toni.
Dybala has 13 goals and 10 assists right now. He's nearly twice as productive so far, in fewer games.
Way more intelligent, way more composure on the ball. Fantastic technical ability, someone mentioned he likes his left, that is not an issue, he's good with both feet. He is a reference point for that team, and truly the type of player you can build offensive strategies around. Real deal!
Man.. Cavani is Cavani. He is the CF we have always dreamed.
Morata is for the future... but Cavani is a god among men in scoring goals..which Morata isnt. He also has Tevez like workrate and strong as hell body.
Cavani must be bought if possible. Period.
I can't agree anymore, brother. He's a great player, was outstanding for Napoli, but I think the circumstances are wrong now. Also, Morata, if you look at is U-numbers, was potting almost a goal a game. He's going to be a volume scorer, and he's developing a really nice work ethic. If he decides this is where he wants to be longer term, I think he'll do great things for the club.
I don't want to bring in Cavani for huge money, on huge wages, with a huge ego, and have him disrupt the wage structure -- and very likely the development of the 2nd best young player on our squad. Cavani is great, but I think that ship has sailed. Juve will need that money later, to keep all of these young, developing stars that we're currently enjoying.
I like where we are right now, and I would be trying to sign Tevez's understudy/partner/eventual replacement -- one Dybala, please!
