Juventus manager, Massimiliano Allegri had come out to say that Paulo Dybala thought he was the new Lionel Messi during his time at the club. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, the Argentine definitely had that feeling earlier in his Juve career, and he can only urge him to go back to being himself as he departs Juventus.
Allegri added that no player can copy or emulate someone else, therefore he cannot get carried away.
His words, “Dybala has to go back to being himself. There was a moment when he got carried away by being the new Messi.”
“You cannot copy or emulate someone else. Paulo has a lot to give to football, he has extraordinary technical qualities, but he has to go back to focusing on the latter.”
On if his team needs wholesale changes, “Milan, Inter and Napoli finished ahead of us in the standings but they were not superior to us.”
“We lacked something in terms of character or management.”
“I had set myself the challenge of returning. A challenge that I want to win together with the club and the fans, returning to triumph in Italy and in Europe.”
