Seriously though, why isn't he in? He's been great for Roma.

I have no idea. Even the well-known journalists from Argentina are confused as well.
Some theories have been thrown around and I have my thoughts too
1. After winning the Copa America, Finalissima and the World Cup, it's only natural that complacency sets in and players might think that their spot is secured even though Scaloni warned them several times that we cannot be complacent. The majority of the people thought that Dybala will be in the squad and maybe this was Scaloni's way to send a message to the group that nobody's spot except for Messi and Di Maria and he won't hesitate to drop them if they do not bring a good performance.
2. Dybala has been Messi's like for like replacement. Maybe Scaloni is going for a different approach in which if, for whatever reason, Messi can't play, instead of replacing Messi with Dybala, Scaloni will go for a different team strategy by playing with 2 natural wingers and make it unpredictable for the opponents.
3. There are rumours that Dybala turned down call-ups in order to remain at Roma for some games and Scaloni wants full commitment. Out of the 6 World Cup Qualifiers so far, he hasn't played a single WCQ game and didn't play in the recent friendlies as well. Last time he played was the March 2023 friendlies, which is when the team celebrated winning the World Cup.
4. Scaloni might be planning for the future and doesn't think that Dybala won't make the World Cup 2026 due to his injuries and being on the wrong side of the 30.
I personally would have liked Dybala to be in the squad as he brings that X-factor but who knows. Only Scaloni can tell us.

Basically not a single good reason there.
Absolutely shambolic decision.
There must have been a fall out behind the scenes. That's the only explanation.

Scaloni has an agenda against him, not suprised as Lionels never liked him

Merseyside police must be breathing a sigh of relief now that Temp is back to camping 12 hours on Barcaforum/Messi topics on Sundays instead
when he wasnt here you said 'he's hiding' , when he is here you say 'he's camping' - can this man win?

You should get your head checked. The only ones pining for you when you weren't around and posting 24/7 about you were Fati and Rassvet and Birdy (occasionally).
