Dybala has been super impressive this season, while Berardi has disappointed a lot. Zaza has improved to last season but still nowhere near what Dybala has done this season. They're all very talented but I must say Dybala has a leap to both Berardi and Zaza in terms of quality. He's a more complete player and his primary abilities are beyond those of Zaza and maybe Berardi too.

We should do everything we can to sign Dybala and then evaluate the options of Berardi and Zaza. If we cannot give Berardi or Zaza more then 15 games a season I don't think bringing them back is a great idea. Berardi is best at RF/RW (433) or AMR (4231), but can also slot in at ST in Allegri's 4312 similar to the way Coman has been used here. That said, I think having both Coman and Berardi in the squad for a potential 433 formation is a waste of everybodys time. We'd ensure surprising formation options but neither Coman nor Berardi would play enough of this system to develop the with the right pace. This is, if we have Tevez, Morata, Dybala and Zaza(or another 4th ST) in the team already. Hence 90% games played 4312 system.

For the 4312 system we'd need 4 ST and 2 AM.

I don't understand why Coman isn't played at AM when introduced instead of ST. This falls down on whether we'll sign an AM upgrade to Pereyra as well. And I don't think Dybala can play AM. CF and AM is completely different roles and Dybala wouldn't want to play there.

Cf and am are 2 completely different roles true but ss and amc roles separation is blurry, both tevez and dybala should be able to play as amc especially ones with their work rate and tracking back ability, will only depend on their preferences and mood

Dybala doesn't have the workrate of Tevez. And I don't think Dybala is a second striker - he'll want to be top scorer and therefore more of a poacher with an eye for his teammates. Tevez is this kind of player as well but looks like a second striker because he's a very complete player. Dybala has all the qualities to play as a second striker or supportive striker if that's the definition, but he's too good a finisher to be a pure SS.

We are sure, that Beradi will come to us?
Nope. Nedved indicated we would and last summer news had it we would take him back by July 2015. But nothing is certain, as he's had a rather poor season so far.

The man hasn't finished a full decent season yet and highlights experts already know whether his best role is treqariusta, attacking midfielder, second striker or striker.

They're ready to throw Berardi in the bin, a player who was scored more goals in Serie A and had a fantastic season in 13/14 (and has been pretty good this season) for the new latest flavour of the month.

Coman is completely forgotten too. From world-class to not even a memory.
Berardi is now average and nothing exciting after being a guaranteed first team starter while Zaza who was wanted by everyone as either a starter or a rotation player is shit.

Lazio being Lazio and all, they're pretty stupid with their decisions. But if they don't fuck up in the Summer and start next season strongly they're arguably favourites for 2nd place.

Roma are a pathetic mess, Napoli always fuck up against minnows and that's it really.

Out of all the people, it's Lotito who has Felipe Anderson. God damn that is a fantastic player.
I am surprised he isn't getting much media attention at all. The guy is showing insane potential and has been doing everything with very high consistency. He is dribbling, making great runs, great finishing, scoring screamers and headers. He must have a shit agent.

This a worldclass brazilian talent that is delivering on a weekly basis and most people haven't even heard of him. If his agent was raiola, he'd be getting weekly reports of 70 mill transfers. And yes most people who don't watch Serie A have no idea who he is or what he is capable of.

Thats why I think he is purchasable and worth any money that will go into him. If he can perform at this level for one season with us we'd double his value.

Lotito would never sell Anderson to us. We have a horrible relationship with Lazio right now.

I would say otherwise - he has a great agent who doesn't trash talk and distract his players from playing football (reference to raiola) with stupid out-of-nowhere rumors
