Paulo Dybala (Juventus vs Atalanta)

All the talk about the young Argentinian pre-game was unfortunatel off-field rather than on it. Massimiliano Allegri was having to fend away questions from the media about Dybala not getting as much match time as he may have deserved.

The Argentine hit back at all of these suggestions and took full advantage of his recent thinking-time on the bench, with a performance many compared to his predecessor Carlos Tevez.

He was involved in just about every chance created by Juventus, also adding a brilliant strike from just outside the area. The question will now be if Allegri rewards his brilliant performance in the next match against Sassuolo.

Felipe Anderson (Lazio vs Torino)

Lazio’s resurgence over the past four matches is causing some problems at the top of the table and Felipe Anderson has played a major part in this.

The Brazilian has played all but eight minutes of the last four games and has contributed three goals, two of which were crucial in defeating Torino at the weekend. His attacking from the wings, coupled with a knack to be in the right place at the right time broke the defensive line for the first goal, while he smartly sat outside of the play to nail home his second.
