I am not defending it, but why are we blaming him for yesterday? You can blame him for his lack of availability, his prior failures in the competition, but yesterday is not on him.
But I did expect Dybala to offer something against a tired opponent and instead he offered zilch when he came on and was just another part of our 15 minute colossal embarrassment. It’s been a multi-year pattern with him, injured or fit, so it’s hard to give him the benefit of doubt and say he would have done better if he was fit. Because he hasn’t for 5 years now.
