That's fine ,but somebody should ask mombly when is Guardiola going to land.
We can possibly end up with two jabronis starting if dumpian comes here.

I am about to feel bad for this guy.

Why?


Because I can almost guarantee you that he is the one that will have to tell Paulo that he is no longer wanted here.

If its Sarri's final decision that he doesn't fit into the team, why feel bad? That's his job.
The same Sarri who said in his first press conference how much he likes Dybala? The same guy who said he had specific plans for Dybala?

You mean that guy?

I get it. You're working under the premise that the coach has any say in the personnel matters.

Quite possibly the only reason why I was somewhat hopeful for Sarri as a coach was to see what he could do with Dybala. Look what he did for Higuain and Mertens, who neither one possess the amount of skill that Dybala has.

Welp. Forget it now.

Have we ever had a coach straight up tell the media that one of the clubs star players isn't wanted?

He wasn't asked specifically about Dybala in that press conference


"Ronaldo is talented, so is Dybala, Douglas Costa is a potential top player who hasn’t really shown what he can do consistently. These are great talents and we must see how we can build around them, what they can give in defending."

"I think Dybala can play as a false nine quite comfortably," Sarri said.


"We can also set up the attack slightly differently, with the 4-3-1-2 and Dybala playing on the right of a front two."


Does this sound like a coach who had no plans for him?

I know what he said. I'm saying we have never had a coach tell the media that one of their top players was no longer in his/clubs plans. Not really the coaches job to talk about who is leaving like that IMO.

Coaches don't usually take the negative route like that unless its over a recent performance. I've learned to take what coaches say with a grain of salt when answering questions regarding transfers/mercato, etc.

Then don't make it sound like it's Sarri's "Final decision", when A) He has no decision making power, and B) Everything he has said about Dybala so far has indicated that he wants him here.

He and CR7 will arguably be the two most talented forwards he has ever coached. What coach wouldn't want that?
