I see some similarities though. Not in style but it took Dybala a couple of seasons (in A and B) before he had a third breakout one with Palermo. You mostly saw talent and the odd flash of brilliance from him. Even in his last season with Palermo there wasn't consistency but it's all relative when a player is that age in a smaller side. Dybala jumped up several levels at once in his first Juve season, sometimes quality shines through like that joining other players of quality, especially in such a dominant side as Juve.

Schick is about the same age as Dybala was going into that third season with Palermo and already he is more consistent in terms of goals, it's very impressive from a rookie who only has one season in the Czech league behind him. As I say we are seeing bits and pieces from him still because he is not a regular starter, but what he is doing with his minutes is very impressive, it's a better ratio than could be expected. Schick has a clear issue though, and it is that Dybala came in to replace an outgoing important player like Tevez, so unless we are suddenly losing an attacker than Schick at this point wouldn't have the same potential space in our team.
Just tell Schick you will be next great Juve striker, Higuain is fat and old, max 3 seasons and you get most cl games
Itll be a quick :donedeal:

On the other hand if we got the kid we'd most probably kill two birds with one stone. I can see him playing CF and SS/AM in our formation. Superb finishing, tall, strong and at the same time has a very good technique and mobility.

Right now we have no subs for our front 4. If we count in Pjaca and Spinazzola as wingers, we'll need a player or even two players able to play AM/SS and CF. The questions is whether he's good enough to contribute here.

Schick reminds me of Morata; tall, good feet, great shot still very raw.

I could see him being brought in gradually like him. The guy rarely starts at Samp, I don't see why such a big deal is made about him being an immediate starter at his net club.

Exactly. And we should put him in our lines asap... on the reserves i mean.. and insert him.

This kind of players seems to have above ordinary potential..they must be thrown in the fray.

Just wait and see next year real amdrid buying Mbappe and letting him command the lines on all fronts at 19 years old. Zero fucks given.

can someone tell what is so special about schick? if he is for rotation lets get italian at least, because we are becoming inter or napoli ffs
:wth: :howler: Why do we have to get Italian? There are many non Italians in Serie A (Bundesliga and Ligue 1 as well) who are talented, far more talented than most of the Italians in the league for that matter. Are you proposing we compromise quality for the sake of nationality? Schik will displace Higuain in 2-3 years.

Fabinho, Schick, and Keita Balde seems like a realistic mercato. Fabinho can be deployed in midfield, or as a RB, Schick will be loaned back to Samp to gain experience and have regular playing time, and Keita Balde can rotate with our forward line. Sure, he has some issues with discipline, but I'm sure we can rectfify those issues: two words, attitude adjustment. Over and above, the kid is only 22 ffs! Fabinho is 23, and Schick is 21. Solid mercato. Young talent, pace, and abundance of quality and ability, cost effective, and tons of potential.

Fabinho would likely cost around 40 million, Keita Balde around 20, and Schick another 25-30. 90 million expenditure, and this is without even incorporating sales. Very doable. However, we need to renegotiate our deals with Adidas and Jeep. Real Madrid are getting an insane amount from Adidas.

Schick reminds me of a more agile Zlatan. Great skill for a tall fella and light on his feet. I'll take a punt on him. We'll kick ourselves in the long run if we pass on our his lad. Especially at this price.

My ideal mercato is: Meret, De Sciglio, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Schick and one winger.

-Meret, Schick for their potential. Buy and then loan them out.
-De Sciglio is versatile, he can play RB, LB or CB in three CB formation, offer reliable in defence and intelligence passing. Perfect for 25-squad restrict.
-Sergej Milinkovic-Savic is steadily improve this season, his numbers speak for itself. He can do it all: endless run, tackle, won header, take on player, creat chance, assist. He can play as a sub for Khedira, Dybala and may be, Mandzukic here. I think he is our number one midfielder target this summner.
- A winger depend on what Max wants, a winger with pace, stamina, defence contribution (F.Anderson, Bernadeschi) or more goal scoring/ assit type (A. Sanchez, Keita Balde)
