In other words, you can't wait for Lukaku to score goals for Roma?

I'm feeling disappointed by your statement. While you remain my favorite Tuz poster, your remarks have brought danielsz very close to overtaking your position.
he can score 3 hattricks for roma as long as they're not against us of course and preferably against the likes of inter

He can also put all 9 goals against Inter and Im willing to add two bonus ones to be used in their return game.

As for reality - I hope he chokes wherever he goes unless for some reason he ends up with us.

Roma will be pretty strong, Dybala and Lukaku is very good attack on paper, if they can stay fit. Better than our definitely.
i'm fine with chiesa and vlahovic, if fit and used properly, those two should do the trick for us

i'm more worried about our midfield. mckennie shouldn't be near the starting lineup for juventus

It’s not a bad frontline at all that’s for sure but it is however quite a stretch saying that washed up and injury prone Lukaka and Dybala are ‘definitely better’ than our attacking line, the main two aforementioned are untill proven otherwise still Chelsea, Juve and even Inda rejects, with one of them being largely an overpaid meme nowadays…

To put it in a different way, the difference would be that Chiesa and Vlahovic are still young and with plenty of potential, perhaps one good season away from us being flooded by 80-100M offers from Premier League/PSG, while on the other hand Lukaka and Dybala are one season away(no matter if good or bad) from moving to Saudi League/MLS.

Pointless comparisons tbh.

Age and potentially wise ur right, but currently? Dybala is still a better player than Chiesa (especially in second striker role) and Lukaku, as much as we can hate him is currently better than Vllahovic, jnless Dusan is able to improve vastly in this season.

@Akshen is right

chiesa 33 games 4 g 6 a total 10 direct goal contribution
dybala 38 games 18 g 8 a total 26 direct goal contribution

in 5 more games played dybala had 16 more direct goal contribution outcomes


vlahovic 42 games 14 g 4 a total 18 direct goal contribution
lukaku 37 games 14 goals 7 a total 21 goal contribution

in 5 less games played lukaku had 3 more direct goal contributions

chiesa and vlahovic are no where close to being dybala and lukaku levels of effective

I like Chiesa, maybe he ends up being a great second striker but yes it is a fact that Dybala is currently better there. You know, because he was doing it for years at a strong Juve side and Chiesa has played there for about 2 hours lol

And where did you find those Chiesa as second striker stats or did you just compare a semi-wingback coming back from an ACL injury to an SS having his best season in the last 4-5 years ? Might want to look at Vlahovic (who had a nasty injury niggling as well) in an actual attacking team too.

There's no comparing two young guys to an injury prone player and the biggest bottler to have ever lived, in my mind. No matter how many distorted stats are being brought up. Let's come back at the end of the season.

it's convenient how the excuses come out when the stats come out. now all of a sudden we care about injuries and when it comes to dybala, but chiesa tearing his acl is ok he must be given time to maybe get better.


dybala gets injred bad he sucks he is worst player of all time. chiesa gets injured hehe lets give hime time even though players don't recover from this to past level hehe

I guess context equals excuses in your book. End of discussion then. Again; revisit in May.

Also, I'd take one ACL injury over 25 muscle injuries in 4 years anytime but hey, why use logic.
