Yes, he is just a name for time being.
This player thread is 81 pages long now. I didn't get worked up to get involved here till now for these reasons :
As much as a name he is, it is a well known fact who watches Serie A consistently that his best was in early 2018. Since then, for some reason or other he hasn't performed consistently. Ofcourse Poch can change that.
Assuming Dybala is attainable, we will have to sped 70 to 80m in this crazy market. And to do that, we will have to sell Eriksen.
Is Selling Eriksen & buying Dybala who's been off for 1.5 season sound enough ? If Eriksen is willing to stay & sign a new contract, IMO, thats the best deal we could do this summer. Eriksen when fit is 7/10 to 9/10 player. I can't say the same for Dybala.
For me, if we have 80m to spend on one player, there are so many options in the market.
If the window ended with Eriksen signing a new deal , Toby staying, not getting Dybala but only Lo Celso, Ndombele, Sess we would have had a brilliant TW.
Also , as Poch indicated, if we didnt sign another forward, Parrott would get his opportunity. He has been arguably the best player of preseason till now. So, why not ?
I don’t understand the desire to retain Eriksen or Toby. Both wanted to leave us the former for Madrid. He openly came out and admitted this. Why would we want players that aren’t committed to the club. I hope we offer him to Juventus and bring in dybala. If not offer him elsewhere. He has run his contract down the same as Toby has they don’t care about the club they are not 100% invested anymore. We need players that want to play for us not players that settle for it because they have nowhere else to go!
