Way more consistent than Dybala. Got better seasons under his belt also. More creative and fits the am/ss position better, Dybala is a poacher and I'll insist on this :baus:



We can't. Tis a joke.
Dybala at his age has been one of the leaders in a great team, winning back to back doubles. Coutinho is a midtable team player, until he lands in a top team you cant really say he's better

I just don't get it. PSG did not let Verratti go to Barca but in the same transfer window they take one of their finest players. Can we go for him though since they'll need to spend to fix their FFP? Btw Dybala is gone. I wouldnt even bother denying.

While I do not have a problem with our policy of letting players leave who don't want to be here anymore, it absolutely should not happen faster than 4 years for young players we have invested in. Vidal and Pogba were both here for 4 years. Bonucci for 7 years. Allowing Sandro or Dybala to leave after just 2 years (or even next summer after 3 years) is beyond stupid. These aren't 29-30 year old players we got for peanuts like Tevez, or even older and cheaper in the case of Alves, in the twilight of their careers. Those players are basically 1-2 year rentals. It's just fine for them to be shipped off after a year or two if that is what they desire. But young players like Dybala and Sandro who we invested 40mil and 26mil into respectively and have made integral parts of our squad should 100% be told they are staying here for a minimum 4 years because of that investment.

Hopefully we always have a core of a few top players (Italian and the occasional other) who we keep long-term and give continuity with, but for the rest, 4-5 years is manageable turnover, allows you to prepare to adequately replace players, allows you to build a team, figure out its best formation, tactics, etc., rejuvenate it with fresh faces, and so on and so forth. 2-3 years is bullshit for a young player we invested in, the turnover is way too fast, and does not allow the team to ever really come together and maximize any sort of potential. The last two summers was the end of a 4-5 year cycle and the beginning of a transformation. That's just fine and dandy, we ended up with a fantastic team this past year that was 1 terrible half of football from a perfect season... build on that... but it isn't alright if we are all of sudden starting to sell the young players we brought in to build this new Juventus over the last 2 years. Sandro and Dybala should not be allowed to leave for 2 more years minimum.

So Dybala is a poacher, who's inferior to Coutinho? Douglas Costa is similar to Krasic?

Think that's all the footy insight I can handle for one day.

:p

Paulo isn't going anywhere this summer!

Coutinho better than Dybala :lol::lol::lol:

Paulo at 23 is the best player of the Serie A Champion and UCL finalist. Coutinho is playing in Loolpool

Paulo has more than 0,5 G+A per game. Coutinho not even close of that

Dybala's not a poacher. Trezeguet was a poacher. Inzaghi was a poacher.

Paulo was our main creative force offensively the past two seasons.

As for consistency, Paulo is a year and change younger and was more productive offensively than Coutinho in 14/15, 15/16, and I suppose you could basically call last season a tie. (Dybala 16/7, Coutinho 14/9 all club comps). It's true, he had a slow start, and is better suited to a support striker role.

I feel like people are butthurt because they thought he was poor in the final (he was), and because they think he's leaving.

For me, Dybala is a bit like Del Piero. He's no trequartista. He can play there well. However, I think that he can reach his full potential playing as a SS. I think what most here means by "poacher" is him playing as a SS where he should score more goals than now when he plays as a trequartista.
