Depends what you consider 'plastic'. Best player wears number 10 in Italy and Messi is objectively better than Dybala. Let's hope by the end of next season that is not the case, but very slim chance of that happening imho. Dybala deserves number 10 here, but not in Argentina NT?
Besides Dybi would be a 9, if we play him with CR7 and Messi. I mean along with being a sub. He might also be sold for massimo ('culo') plusvalenza...
Messi is definitely not Messi from 10 years ago, but damn are people deluded to not see he is the main reason Barcelona are competitive at all.
