Just checked his stats - big drop in goals last season compared to previous. Was he playing a deeper role following Ronaldo joining? His record in 17/18 was great.

17/18: 26 goals in 46 appearances
18/19: 10 goals in 42 appearances

Yeah he spread his playing time across ST, playing off the striker and on the RW. In 17/18 he played mostly as a second striker. Where the hell would Alli play?

do you think Ronaldo was going to pass to him?

Has anyone mentioned in this or the Dybala thread that it might be a smokescreen? :facepalm::banghead:

If it is true, I think it might be more about quality in squad depth.

Hypothetically speaking if we buy Dibala, it's Lukas and Lamela whose place is under threat IMHO.

If we are buying Dybala is gonna start.

I dont think it is that simple. It's a squad game. There will be different formations for different games, some players less well/better suited, injuries (which a wise manager will 'bank on') and form.

Club leaked info. Too many sources ran with the story at the same time for it to be a coincidence.

Either Eriksen is off - and we may have a better sense of that later today - or Spurs putting pressure on Betis to conclude the Lo Celso deal.
Pressure ? ‘We have loadsamoney’? Nah
