Regardless if you give a slight edge to Inter or not (I personally dont), we have the much superior coach, I'm seeing us as Scudetto challengers and will be very dissappointed if we are not

Dybala was better than Martinez in 2019/2020 and 2018/2019. Almost similar minutes between the two for those two years and Dybala was head and shoulders better. Dybala did have a bad injury spell here recently and hopefully can come back as the main man at Juventus. Martinez definitely was the better player last year, no doubt. And he won a Scudetto for his efforts.
Yes, I think Morata/Dybala as the SS/CF pairing are stronger than Osimen and Insigne, Ibra/Diaz. Especially if you take into consideration Diaz is a mid and not a SS. And Insigne is playing wide and not as a second striker. See, that's why its hard to do a SS/CF pairing comparison because none of the teams mentioned use two strikers except for Inter. Almost all of these teams in Serie involve a single striker with wingers/wide players. So of course you take Chiesa into consideration. Just like we take Insigne who currently plays wide into consideration. Inter really is the only two striker team of those you mentioned imo so we're comparing apples to oranges if we take the only two striker team and then force us to compare Juventus to that. Morata/Dybala is better than Ibra/Diaz and Osimen/Insigne. But none of us play that way.
Listen, I know the Woj hate is strong right now and for some good reasons. He's made some really bad plays to start this year and had only slightly above average last year. But this is straight up revisionist to think Handa in 2020 or 2019 or even 2018 was anywhere near Woj. Woj is a better keeper than Handa. Now and two years ago. 3-4 years ago, not at all. Handa was nearly worldclass. But the last three years, Woj has easily been the better keeper.
I agree on all accounts here.

I didn't mean to include 2021 because I agree. But 2020, 2019 and probably 2018, Woj was better than Handa.
Handa allowing awful goals has been a thing for almost five years now. Both in CL and in Serie A. I mean, he stands and watches so many goals go in because his positioning has regularly been absolute shit. Watch him stand and watch goals go in.

De Laurentiis is not giving up: he doesn't want to lose Koulibaly, Anguissa, Osimhen and Ounas for the African Cup in January and is working hard on that. He would clash with the players who believe that it is an honor to represent their countries in that tournament.
