A player out of time. He's a classic second striker at a time when none of the top clubs play with one. Everybody is playing variations of 4-3-3, 3-4-3 and 3-5-2. He can't play a free#8 role ala De Bruyne, Modric, Silva etc, he can't play as a sole striker ala Agüero, Cavani, Lewandowski etc and he doesn't have the right skill set to play on either of the wings. He'll do a job in all those positions but you won't see the best of him.

From the radio this morning (I know!) it sounded like his vision, hustle and strength were very much Tevez like. Wouldn't this be a good link between isolated forwards and a defensively setup midfield (because they have to be) containing a talented yet lazy and erratic show pony?

Nah he's no Tevez, he can hustle but he doesn't have the pace and natural fuck you aggression. Tevez wouldn't have his issues as he could play anywhere on the pitch in any system due to his natural zest for the game.

He is nothing like Tevez. He is more like Jovetic, skilful but lightweight. Despite all the hype he has managed just 24 caps for the worst Argentina side for decades and only played once (in the Third place play-off) at the recent Copa America. I am not saying he is a bad player but he is absolutely not a highest-level player, that's why Juve are getting rid of him. He looked brilliant as a teenager but, like so many, has just not kicked on.
 
Can't say I've ever seen Dybala play well. There are a lot of players like that though and they aren't all shite, but he's one of those who you hear hyped up about all the time, but I don't think I've ever really noticed him when he's played? Jerome Boateng is the ultimate for this, he is literally the worst defender of all time if judged solely on games I have seen him play

Me too you see the occasional wonder goal from him but he isnt a top notch player.

This in a nutshell... the fact that Juve think Lumpakaku is the better option should say everything!
