What about Dybala and Insigne

Manos Staramopoulos • 5 de enero de 2022

Two great talents of Italian football. They wear 10 on their back but are always marked by irregularity

Paulo Dybala y Lorenzo Insigne

Itending to the latest, Juventus would have second thoughts about Dybala's contract, which now seemed a hair's breadth away from renewal. Wondering whether it is worth paying him ten million euros a year, especially if he then misses so many games due to various injuries and ailments. Also according to the latest, there is a strong possibility that Insigne will accept Toronto's offer in the American MLS which offers him a contract worth 11 million euros a year and therefore in January or at the end of the season he will leave Napoli with a contract that has now expired.


Of course, in this case, the immediately arising consideration comes naturally: and I believe you, and where does another team in Europe find it that would offer him so much?. Behind all this is the intolerance for the numbers 10 (even if Insigne has the 24 shirt with Napoli, simply because Maradona's 10 was withdrawn), their natural inconstancy almost always ill-tolerated - an artist does not paint masterpieces over and over even if Picasso was capable of very high compositional and inspirational rhythms the fact that football is increasingly moving towards super athletes of great physical imposing who guarantee a better average performance even if without the peaks of talent and imagination that players of the genre will not reach never.


They are rare players, the numbers 10, who cost a lot and involve a high dose of risk, because it is not easy to integrate them with all the others and enhance their football made up of dribbling and selfishness that often frustrate the coaches' schemes.


Dybala and Insigne were too often a problem, as were Baggio or Zola in other times, and Juventus and Napoli did not have the opportunity to wait for them, on the contrary they often looked for other protagonists, other showmen, turning off the spotlight inevitably aimed at they. Players of this kind hardly move between Italian clubs, they are too expensive and above all they are a difficult bet to win. So, in fact, either they stay where they are, or goodbye, they disappear from our horizon.


Dybala wears Platini's shirt, Maradona's Insigne. The condemnation of certain players is the weight of responsibility, the expectation they create, the unconscious promise that their very presence means returning to magical and exceptional times. When they do, they pull the audience and bring them to their side, but that's not the rule. Insigne has a controversial relationship with Neapolitan fans and the one with De Laurentiis is right of mutual tolerance.


Dybala paid a very high toll on Cristiano Ronaldo's untouchability, then slipped into a tunnel of injuries and depressions just as he and his agent were making very high demands to renew the contract. Up to raising questions about whether to renew it or not. The road traveled by Milan with Donnarumma could be an indication, no one is indispensable, everyone can be done without. Di Insigne, however, his matches in the national team remain in my eyes when Italy won the European Championship. The beautiful "tiraggiro" to Belgium.


If I were a manager I would obviously do the math, but in general I am very struck by the consideration that all in all we can do without some players, the conviction of finding an alternative that costs less and patience even if not of the same quality. To me the only hypothesis of the farewell of two players thus gives me a great sense of loss and defeat.
