Allegri Claims Dybala Is Pivotal for Juventus Despite Ronaldo’s Impressive Performance

DBasia.news – Cristiano Ronaldo was signed by Juventus during last summer transfer market, despite the team already have a deep squad and won the Scudetto in seven consecutive times. It shows Juventus ambition to achieve all trophies this season.

Ronaldo’s arrival to Turin also threatens Paulo Dybala’s position. Moreover, the Argentinian player could hardly write his name on the scoreboard. During the 2018/2019 season, he just scored two goals in Serie A, and Ronaldo did that nine times.

Another teammate, Mario Mandzukic, was also succeeded in scoring six goals. It makes the public assume Dybala is no longer the main choice of Massimiliano Allegri, or even guess the 24-year-old player would leave Turin.

But Allegri stated the different opinion. He thinks Dybala is still one of the most important players for Bianconeri.

“The team played very well on Tuesday and the three at the front did extremely well. Mandzukic, Cristiano Ronaldo and Dybala. It is true he (Dybala) is scoring less, but on the other hand, he is linking midfielders and strikers and above all, he takes us all out of trouble with his skills,” Allegri said cited by Goal.

“He has had many chances to score since the beginning of the season. He hasn’t scored much compared to last season, but he is pivotal for our game,” the Italian manager added.

Juventus are having the 2018/2019 very well. They just gained one defeat of all competition and now lead the Serie A temporary table with 37 points.

After successfully defeating Valencia in the Champions League, the players would be ready for the next match, the away match to Fiorentina on Sunday (2/12).
