Juventus coach Allegri: Dybala ideal working behind Mandzukic

Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri sees Paulo Dybala as a second striker behind Mario Mandzukic.

The pair combined for victory over Palermo.

Allegri said, “Dybala is playing better as a support striker connecting the midfield and centre-forward, as he has great technique, while Mandzukic like Morata tends to attack space in the box. Depending on the moment and the characteristics of the game, I choose between these various elements.

“This squad is capable of learning several different systems and approaches, but we still have lot that can be improved."
