Arent they close to Dzeko?
Icardi, Dzeko, Lutaro, there is no space for Dybala there.

And don't look now, but that team, with Conte as the coach, is suddenly a lot scarier than we thought.

A lot of people here are just over-reacting man. This club is renowned by people outside of this forum as having one of the best management in world football - we should be a hell of a lot more proud of that. Our track record in transfers is far from perfect but extremely strong compared many of our peers.
We sign De Ligt and everyone sais we have the best management. A few transfers later and we think they are hopeless. Let us not forget that Paratici has been instrumental in scouting and helping Marotta on some amazing work. I remember the days when everyone thought it was the end of the world when we couldn't sign Draxler for instance.
Have a little faith guys. You know, our biggest problem right now is a problem many clubs don't face and that is that no-one wants to leave. Think about other clubs where many want to leave. We never keep players who wanted to leave and that sometimes has hurt us financially in the short run but now many world class players want to be here.
I am a little sick and tired of the negativity and the ever changing bias. Perhaps its emotion.
Also, think about things practically. I like Dybala - I like his flair, his image and his appeal etc. But think about this for just one second. Not saying I want this. But imagine having Dybala as your number 9 in Sarri's system or Icardi for instance. Who is going to be more effective? We can say that he comes with baggage etc....ok, so who else then? To be honest, outside of extremely highly priced players like Kane etc - there are not many classic number 9s that are either available or affordable right now.
Kean? Yeh, sorry he left. But think about it. He had 1 more year on his contract and Raiola didn't want to extend. So what if he doesn't and we lose him for free?
There is a reason for everything you know. Sometimes we are just to quick to judge. Lets wait until after the deadline and look at the squad we end up with versus what we had last season. I am fairly confident it would be better and we do it in a financially sustainable way.
I still stand by the management - I have faith. I still think the team is stronger than last year. I am really looking forward to seeing a Sarri style of football at least for the novelty. My biggest doubt is whether his style is going to actually work and give us a better shot at winning the champions league - that is all.

For the record, I can still have faith that management will do the right thing and be absolutely disgusted with how they are treating Dybala.
