Flashes of true Dybala: has Juventus really found him?

Against Milan two assists and a great start, only continuity is missing. Joya at her levels knows how to be central, Pirlo will have to find a place for him

Those shooting sessions at the end of training recounted by Chiesa are especially useful for the younger ones, but also for Paulo to find himself: the recovery process continues and sends very encouraging intermediate reports. After the ownership and the goal Dybala entered phase three: recover the magic. The heel kick with which he opens the advantage of Chiesa is a “memento” for everyone: this is the real Dybala, this is what it can give, these are the plays that can open a game like the famous can of tuna. The second, more ordinary assist is a small step towards phase four: continuity.

Pursuing continuity

We haven’t entered that one yet: the Argentinian made a great start even against Milan, he played for half an hour at very high levels, then he placed just a couple of more flashes, before going out because he was not well from the interval. . Feverish during the week, not at his best physically at San Siro, but still decisive. There is enough to remind us that Juventus cannot ignore someone like this, when they will find continuity over ninety minutes and a series of matches. Then of course, he will have to play them, a series of games: and this is a pleasant problem for Pirlo. For now, a minimum of continuity of employment will come “thanks” to Morata’s muscular ailment, who will also miss the third consecutive match against Sassuolo (after Udinese and Milan), then looking for a return for the match with Inter.

Stable placement

In the two games of 2021 Dybala put in a goal and two assists in the farmhouse, confirming precisely that he was on the right path, but there are still issues of position and compatibility to settle: Kulusevski who cannot be used simultaneously because he starts from the same clods; there is a need to find the Argentine closest to the area. Then there is the Ronaldo question: a single match cannot make statistics, but is it possible that the Portuguese player’s difficult evening is also due to the absence of Morata, more functional to trigger him and open up spaces for him? Pirlo did not have and does not have much time to work in training, but slowly, counting on an improving physical form, he will have to definitively incorporate Dybala into the technical project. The trident hypothesis remains far away, but the true Dybala, with more frequent flashes, cannot be given up.
