Pizy 18,953 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 This would make zero sense for Juventus. Losing a world class player entering his prime years while he's still on a long term contract for peanuts (in relative terms), with no worthy replacements lined up ... really odd.That is very, very strange.What makes no sense to me is that if he can be had for such a low fee for someone of his class, why the hell isn't EVERY big club after him? Why aren't PSG, Barca, Madrid, Bayern, City, and ourselves after him?Why aren't we offering them £25m and Ramires or just a boat load of cash for him? Like I've said time and time again, if José could design the perfect midfielder on a computer Vidal would be it. He's an absolute bulldog that contributes in all phases of the game.Yet seemingly the only club being linked to him is United. Mind boggling.

Mind boggling.That alone is what's making me think there's nothing concrete in this. United at the moment are being linked to nearly anyone: Fabregas, Kroos, Di Maria, Robben, Reus, Hummels, Cavani, Schweinsteiger etc.What all of these players have in common is that United either missed out when they moved elsewhere or have absolutely no chance of signing them because they're not going anywhere at least this year. The media are going over the top with linking everyone and their dog to United because that's what sells papers, and a cynic would say that also sells Manchester United season tickets if these rumours are coming from someone inside the club.I also find it odd that no one in Italy seems to be reporting much about Vidal going to United, at the moment it's all just English media with some whispers also coming from Chile.

bababoom 4,478 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 United must be offering him insane wages, I wouldn't put it past them seeing as Rooney's on 300k, RVP's on 250k and even Shaw, an 18 year old is on 100k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laeth 527 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 If Vidal is leaving this summer; then about 5 other clubs with more clout than United at the moment would be interested. Just can't see him going to United. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their fans would be very upset if that were the case. The way Moyes talked about the players they were going to bring in before he left and the way their board and players talk it sounds like they were bringing in some serious names. I think they will certainly bring in at least one world class player.If they make no more signings I think they'd do extremely well just to scrape 4th.

sherry33 234 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Did Juve even have to sell him in the first place? Do they need the money really bad? Who they are rumoured after for his replacement? or did they already have a decent backup?If the answer is "No" for all the question, it is most likely just a bull**** rumour.I was reading an article last days about Vidal going to United only if Juventus manage to get Ramires there..

termninja 5,290 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Arturo is one of the best midfielderas in the world for me, and defo a player who would fit in really really nicely in midfield trio with Cesc and Matic. I really hope we try to bring him in, whatever the cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nadavTKL 1,787 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Conte has resigned. Maybe it has something to do with Vidal leaving?If it is, im sure United wouldnt be the only club chasing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bababoom 4,478 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 If United sign Vidal we can forget Pogba, didn't Juve say they'll only sell one? Saying that we're probably not even in for Pogba. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBlueGuy 1,552 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Pogba price 60m, Vidal 40-45m. For me Pogba is the better deal but Vidal isn't that bad of a deal either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, it has more to do with the lack of attackers coming into the team. But his departure can definitely affect some players, especially Vidal, imo.

chopchop 68 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Personally I wouldn't mind United getting Vidal as long as we're in for Pogba, but if that isn't the case then fuck this shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
