I didn't say they can't play in the same position. They can play in the position - i.e. a fluid AM role - but Lo Celso doesn't also play as a forward, unlike Dybala.

For Spurs, and the way we play and are set-up, Lo Celso is probably a better fit. If that opinion puts your nose out of joint for some reason, then too bad.
Spurs are rubbish

I’m not really that concerned with Spurs to be honest. If I was I’d go on a Spurs forum.

We must be planning on playing 4-2-3-1 this season. If not, why did we play 4-2-3-1 in every single pre-season game?

Agreed, I think both players would significantly improve each team.

Just join in the excitement. Prat.
Meh, I was super excited about Di Maria, Falcao and Sanchez and look at how that turned out. Also, if this guy gets a huge wage and we miss out on Sancho due to money saving antics next summer, I reckon people will be signing off a different hymn sheet.

Dybala isnt a RW and even then its not like we couldnt also get Sancho when we still have the likes of Lingard in the side. Also Martial could move upfront and I am not sold on James
More a case of Dybala, Rashford, Martial and probably Greenwood would likely be put into the side over the coming seasons. Plus Sancho. They can’t all be in the first XI, and I can’t see any as regular subs. Maybe Greenwood for another year or two perhaps.

Why is everyone worrying about Sancho when that’s 12 months from now?

I can't believe that people aren't getting behind this signing? It's getting rid of Lukaku who adds nothing to our build up and replacing him with an exciting technical player.

Also means less game time for Lingard and Mata who people have been moaning about for years now.

I am going to wear crotchless chaps in to work tomorrow because there is no point trying to restrain my penis with conventional trousers.

Martial has an awful lot to prove as does Rashford and yes Greenwood needs to develop.

Plus if we want to compete at the highest level we need a quality squad

This is true and just about the biggest positive.

There's no guarantee he'll be as good as you think he will. Everything has an element of a gamble, just hope this turns out to be in our favor and stop worrying.

It is 50/50 reallly. We can only hope we dont feck up with his agent and Juve tell him to feck off ASAP. Hopefully they behave like dicks to him, no way back

I'm still struggling to believe this, it seems too good to be true.

Lukaku I would like to think would be quite easy to convince about Juve as it's probably offering him more chances to win a trophy than at Inter. However while it may just be pushing for a move wasnt part of his incentive for going to Inter getting to work with Conte? What will he make of Sari? I'm trying to imagine what Ronaldo will make of Lukaku's first touch or of Lukaku pointing at him...

I just hope Dybala is genuinely wanting to come here and we dont just throw money at him like with Sanchez just incase he struggles to adapt to the league and we're also seeing the knock on affect of Sanchez' massive wages.

The largest Italian Juventus forum asked "Would you trade Dybala for Lukaku?".. 90% has voted NO.

I really don't want us to cancel the Bruno Fernandes deal, but can we really bring in both? Is Dybala quick enough to play wide right, or is that like playing Mata out there? From what I've seen he looks like Mata with acceleration and a better shot.
