#3 Not equipped for English football

Would he be a good signing for Manchester United?

Time and again, we’ve seen big-name players come to England and fail to live up to the hype surrounding them. That’s not to say that they weren’t talented; it’s just that the Premier League requires a stark adaptation of playing style.

English football is physical and fast, meaning if you’re not strong or fast on your feet, you’ll struggle. Of course, there are exceptions like David Silva and Juan Mata, who have managed to navigate England’s toughest defences despite their physique. Does Paulo Dybala possess that speed of thought? I doubt it.

Let’s consider his countrymate, Angel Di Maria, as an example. No one can question the Argentinean’s talent, but in England, he could barely muster up Ashley Young numbers from the wing.

English football isn’t for everyone and when you’ve been accustomed to a laboured and slow style of play, the Premier League isn’t the place to be ‘finding your feet’.

For the money United would have to pay for the 25-year-old, it’d be a costly wait too.
