Cristante and Mancini return, disqualified against Verona, but above all the true technical leader of the team returns. The last training session confirmed Dybala’s recovery. He stopped due to yet another muscle problem in De Rossi’s first match against Verona. 57 minutes and then the stoppage, also missing the useless test against the Arabs in Ryad. Against Salernitana he will be the starter, in the new external position and less close to the goal in the new 4-3-3. El Shaarawy-Lukaku-Dybala to represent the offensive proposal, in a different role for the Argentine compared to the one more as an attacking midfielder with Mourinho, in a position that had produced 24 goals since he arrived in Rome.
Dybala’s numbers with Mourinho
With the Special One, Dybala had the best scoring average of his career. A goal every 154′. Exceeding the scoring percentages with Allegri, Sarri and all the other coaches they had in Italy. Including Gasperini and Iachini during their Palermo days.
With Allegri on the bench Dybala played 221 games, with Sarri 46, Iachini 57, Gasperini 18, Pirlo 36 and finally 56 games under Mourinho management with the highest realization yield. For Dybala, the opportunity against Salernitana, last in the standings, to score in the new coach’s first away match. To take advantage of the softer calendar and try to achieve the Champions League objective indicated by the owners.
