I think our chances are much better with messi and ronaldo than they have been with Dybala so there is that

There is no doubt Messi is a much better player but Dybala is way younger and is improving if you ask me.
Dybala still has many years in him while Messi would give you a season or two.
Swapping them means we just look at the present while our attack average age is like in a nursery home. We would need to replace the whole attacking lineup in 2 years..

de Paul and Locatelli are names that will pop up again. - Fiorino

Well isn't that what juventus was saying with the ronaldo purchase ?
I think Dybala at most has 5 years in him
Messi maybe 2-3
Biggest difference beside having the two goats of all time together would be the insane marketing

Me personally like I said before when we chose pirlo I would have axed everyone older than 27 EVERYONE and started with a serious youth movement with the new coaches ideals

Leeds after him also now apparently

 

[Bianconero81]

Dzeko, Vidal and Kolarov

Looks like they're pinning it all on next season to win the league

They're also starting their own mummification center over there?

Bro I would be happy with zaniolo aouar chiesa and Locatelli
With kean and another young forward next to Dybala Is what I'm saying.

Since though we aren't selling cr7 and we won't make these moves for another few years why not get messi if we're gonna basically do the same thing. You see what I mean

No, I don't get your point at all. Juve is the least likely top team to be in for Messi now, the financial strain has been to strong for the club with that push for CL and big signings. Our wage bill is unhealthy to say the very least, it's time to downsize, not go the other way.

If you assume Juve could pull off Messi in these circumstances, then I'll say that the club can use that money and sign Aouar this Summer and go for Zaniolo next year. Looks like a much better and more balanced plan to me. You get rid of Khedira and DC, replace them with Aouar and Zaniolo and you have a younger, better squad. On top of that with a lower wage bill and no need to touch these positions for a few years.

So you think Dybala will be finished when he turns 31?
As for Messi Im not sure about 3 years - He is not Ronaldo...

Yeah I don't see Dybala playing much past that honestly. I'll repeat if it was up to me when pirlo was chosen everyone would have been axed and a serious fresh start would have happened but it isn't so

 

[Bianconero81]

3 years of Messi? yes. We can always find another dybala type player.

We gonna sell him eventually anyway. Messi & Ronaldo in the same team would be nuts any way you look at it lol

- - - Updated - - -

People here really underestimate how big having Messi and Ronaldo on the same team would be. We're talking the two greatest players of all time. It's something of a fantasy novel. There wouldn't be a country in the world where this wouldn't be front page news and on everyone's lips. The exposure we would have would be astronomical. We could easily double our commercial revenue. My answer is 100% yes! It's a no brainer!

I propose this GIF for anyone posting Messi shit or suggesting we sacrifice Dybala for that tax evading garden gnome cunt
