Not sure Dybala would work so well as a #10, he's more of a false #9, and recently a right mid/winger. If we used last season's diamond, he would work in the Lingard role. But in a 4-2-3-1, surely Bruno would be better?

People should note he scored 23, 19 and 26 goals in his previous seasons as second striker before moving out to the right. I hope if we do get him we would play him centrally.

few people in thread, people think juve are being duped swapping an 80m player for him and are assuming it is lukaku + cash etc. One person above somewhere used the words '150m player'

I dont think he was ever a 150 million dollar player. But i find it odd that this once hyped up person here on the caf and by juventus fans is worth one lukaku. It doesnt mean i see dybala as a 150 million dollar player i literally asked if something happened why he's basically being treated by juve as surplus to requirements and available . I thought the deal was lukaku plus cash but you are looking at it the wrong way. I thought it was cash and dybala to equal about 70-80 million euro. Reading the translated article that seems not the case ,but it wasnt like i thought it was lukaku and cash to equal 150.

Come to United Paulo, and you can play in the same team with your buddy Paul :drool:

Actually i have no doubt Pogba will stay if Dybala comes. I think we’ll sell him to Inter though for full cash

Pretty sure this is just Juve f*cking with Inter's Lukaku transfer, pressuring them into paying big money for the fat donkey.
But if there's any truth to it, and a player of Dybala's calibre is willing to join us... Damn, that should seal the top 4 spot for us! Just imagine the difference between playing 4-2-3-1 with JLingz or Mata in #10, and having Dybala there.
Not to mention that he's Paul's best buddy, so there's chemistry right from the start.

If you mean me saying ‘I thought he was meant to be a 150m player’ - that wasn’t me actually saying he was

He was compared with Neymar around the time Neymar went to PSG for £198m
i did mean you and im glad you are getting the same impression as me that people think he is that player. very underwhelmed by his highlights and always find it a bit baffling - guess he has good stats as a striker for juve before last season

So he'll make loads of nice runs and make me want to smash his face in with his off-field antics? Don't want.

More reason why he's probably not coming :lol:

Reddit IDK: Ole's live reaction when Sir Woodward tells him he swapped a bench warmer Ole doesn't fancy for Dybala plus enough cash to seal the Maguire deal:

If Dybala is in doubt whether to join... Maybe Sir Alex may call Ronaldo and ask the boy for a personal favour (to convince Dybala)? Ronaldo respects Sir Alex

They are all using Di Marzio’s information as the source, so nothing really new there whether it’s from sky sports or whoever. Issue is whether you trust Di Marzio or not with the information he was fed

Dybala and Pogba in the same team. :drool:

Are they still bros like when Pogba was still at Juventus?

I'd rather take the cash from Inter and go for a wide forward or even Federico Chiesa if he is available. I don't see where Dybala fits even in a 4-2-3-1. We've got too many central players without a proper wideman of sufficient quality, and we don't have a top defensive midfielder to be able to accommodate Pogba and a second striker like Dybala in the same XI.

Pogba and Lukaku were also meant to be best buddies and yet the two have zero chemistry on the pitch

He's a natural second striker, playing just behind #9 and easily contributing 15 goals and 15 assists for us in that position. Not a traditional #10 slowing the game down, but an attacking threat perfect for pressing football. This could be massive transfer for us, a real difference maker.

Social media manager?
LOL! Touché!

I am certain Dybala story is made up by media and has no legs. There is no way Dybala wants to come to United, and there is very little chance he is wanted by Ole, either. Selling Lukaku or not, a striker is not what we need the most. Most of our experienced forwards prefer to play through the center – Rashford, Martial (even Sanchez if he ever wakes up) - we have strikers that are as talented as Dybala and more experienced in Premier League. Priority for Ole, in attack, is a winger, regardless of whether Lukaku leaves or not.

Big Rom is a fat failure desperate for a move to Serie A while in his prime, who the hell does that? Get rid ASAP, he's not good enough to polish PP's shoes.

Even if we don't have a quality DM we should not miss this opportunity. It could be a big upgrade to our attack and bring class where some of our other players lack. What is missing can be added afterwards like Liverpool buying VVD etc.

Ole has name dropped Dybala before as perfect
