So why is he captain again? If Dybala is ahead of him not because of appearances but continuity, shouldn't Alex Sandro, Cuadrado and some others like Bentancur, Bernardeschi, Szczesny, also be ahead?
Swedish TV interviewed De Ligt after the match and one of the questions was how we silenced Lukaku. His reply was that you don't have to be physical to stop him because that's where he is better. Bonucci is the perfect example of a defender that does not do physical work.

Dude is an absolute farce. Have you seen him attempt to "attack". Legit blooper reel material when he thinks he has channeled Pele and runs forward trying to take on defenders. He will, like any defender on planet earth other than De Sciglio, have a good game every now and then. However, he's a liability in defense and financially. Makes way too much money for the quality he offers.
Do you mean he is good at defending when we are playing 27% possession catenaccio?? We haven't kept a clean sheet in Serie A in, what 20 matches? He is a large reason why. Can't mark set pieces. Has 0 athletic ability. And of course earns on par with superstars.
