At this point I just want to go to sleep and wakeup when the window is closed.
Paulo Dybala

Leaving a Juve side that's got Ronaldo and done the business they did this summer will not be an easy pill to swallow, especially as he does seem to adore the club. The option being touted is then a Man United in a six year slump and thus far, modest transfer window with an inexperienced manager. It's on us to convince him of the short term. I doubt he has any qualms about the history and honor of playing for United, as was evident from his IG post last season.
I don’t know mate but reports are everywhere that Juve and Sarri are blatantly pushing him out themselves, i mean why would he care about that anyway if that’s what they done to him
How many more Argentinian playmakers are we going to buy and then sell on due to underperforming? Veron, Di Maria, Heinze to an extent. Fool me once - shame on me, fool me twice shame on you, fool me three times - I'm thick as a bulls knob.

I remember all too well when the theory went that Argentinians can't play in Manchester. Name one! (Aguero right)
What about Heinze and Sergio Romero?

Yes. I really like Dybala as a player even if he doesn't fit most modern tactics but i just can't imagine he will be very motivated playing for United right now besides a huge wage increase. That works too for the first couple months but it may eventually turn out a Di Maria or, worse, a Sanchez.
Go back 70 years and you'd be saying black players can't play for Man United. Lets call this opinion what it is. Racist.
Heinze and Romero? Nah. Won't call them a roaring success. Or Tevez for that matter. Now, Aguero... He's bloody marvelous.
It's not racist and I don't agree with said theory. Obviously. I'm just saying there was a theory once upon a time.
it was a joke about how we've had a few shit argentinians at the club.
And a few good ones too. Tevez and Heinze ended poorly but they had successful terms here. Tevez was a big part in our CL win. So really we've had a couple of shit Argentinians, and more than a couple of shit Englishmen. Maybe we should stop playing english players too.
I'm not particularly sold on this transfer but not every player is going to be the same as Di Maria. Reasonably professional football players also exist.
Goal.com reporter treated as gospel on Twitter. Wake me up when the window ends.
I second this...! It's so frustratingly slow!
Decently reliable reporters can work for shite websites. It's hardly impossible.
Lukaku is on 8-9m gross. Reports on Dybala's wage demands come from Italy, where wages are reported net. So Dybala's asking for more than twice of what Lukaku's on.
people's mood changing based on insta likes. christ.
People weren't talking about a #10 as most of us assumed we would be playing 433 which doesn't have that position. But this preseason it's obvious that Ole is having us play 4231, in which case our options for that role are basically Lingard or Mata (possibly Pereira or Gomes as well, but I doubt we'd see them much).
In that case, we should not go for him. We need to avoid this, high wage low performance signing. Dybala is world class on his day but he seems the player who is not consistent. Seems a bit like Ozil to me this.
No joke.. Saw him in Dukinfield today.
I'd prefer Dybala over Bruno, the former is more proven at top level. Bruno has been great in the Portuguese league, but his numbers might plummet in the PL.
The word "theory" should be substituted with a much more pertinent term "superstition".
I had to google where that is and really hope you are not trolling.
Worrying tbh reading that he is not too gone on coming here. If that is his attitude we are better off without.
He also doesn't want to stay if the manager doesn't see him as a key member for their team.
Your chips are good, we are getting Dybala in exchange for Lukaku.
He definitely isI had to google where that is and really hope you are not trolling.
Amen. We need to do ourselves a favour and assume we are starting the season with the current squad, possibly minus Lukaku, it's the hope that gets ya.
somebody doesn't get sarcasm.
If it'll make you feel better then let's do it!
There was a superstition that Argentinians can't play in Manchester.
He definitely is
I am one of those who cannot decide. On one hand I don't watch him every week but the few CL games I've watched him make me want to get a player like him.
On the other hand my Serie A supporting friends tell me that he's a bit shite. He doesn't deserve anywhere near the type of money he's asking for.
On way or the other, I will be fairly happy whether the deal goes through or not.

If this does go through i hope we can also lump Darmian into the deal somehow.
You and me both. I am tired of it
juve is a well run club which wins trophies and challenges for the CL. why would a player actively want to leave that? of course, if the manager doesn't want him, that will change things.
Ill go out the box on this... Zabaleta wasnt too bad in his prime.
What - calm down mate before you pull the racist card! I think the point being made is that Veron and Di Maria and to an extent Heinze / Tevez didnt work out that well. I'm sure that was what was meant.
