We theoretically study the emission statistics of a nonlinear photonic dimer during coherent Josephson-like oscillations. We show that the phase and population oscillations allow to periodically approach an optimal squeezing condition resulting in strongly nonclassical emission statistics. By considering a realistic exciton-polariton field in a appropriately designed microcavity, we show that the antibunching should emerge in such semiconductor system where nonclassical signatures have remained elusive to date.
