GDS reports that that we have prepared 60 mil Euros bid for Vidal which his agent will submit on 17th August when Juve return home.
GDS have given Vidal a deadline to decide his future, etc
So in all the same old bullshit we have been hearing since the last 2 weeks or even summer with different figures and dates.
Did his agent lose our last bid? Facepalm.
Here you go brother. Its word for word & time for time..
Vidal's future remains in the balance - #MUFC has in its hand a cheque of €60m & is ready to submit it to Juve. 5:31 AM - 9 Aug 2014
Man Utd's offer for Vidal is ready: 60m to Juventus & 8-10m/year for the player who currently takes 4m+bonuses at Juve. #GdS 5:42 AM - 9 Aug 2014
#gds reports that after Aug.17 (when Juve will return from the Tour) Vidal's agent will submit #mufc' 60m bid to Juve 5:49 AM - 9 Aug 2014
Today's #gds also confirms that there is a deadline, Juventus want to know the will of #Vidal, now #Vidal must decide quickly. 5:44 AM - 9 Aug 2014
Troll alert!
Considering we paid close to £30m for an untested & unproven teenager, Vidal is easily worth twice as much.
Vidal = Roy Keane's soul in Paul Scholes' body.
Agree with you mate. Why would anyone watch any games for a small club like Juve in such mickey mouse competitions like Serie A and the CL.
Troll is about right. Kagawa is not a central midfielder in a million years. He's a number 10 and a number 10 only.
If Vidal's agent is ready to submit a bid to Juve, doesn't that imply Vidal's "will" is to join us? Otherwise, the agent would be wasting his time, and you'd think he'd have a chat with the player beforehand.
bollocks, I bet 80% on here HAVE seen him play outside the World Cup, pretty knowledgeable bunch on here.
Sorry, tried to respond, but it's boring now. Anyway, I'm off to a grill and loads of alcohol.
No meltdown here, I've definitely touched a nerve and I stand by my original post.
This is either going to progress when Juve return from their tour or it will go right to the wire on deadline day.
Do you know there are thousands of members signed up here? Why is it so unbelievable that a few hundred have seen him play before?
That's my point, only a small percentage have probably seen him play on a regular basis, there is no doubt he is a great player, but if anyone comes in here to say they don't think this transfer will happen or posts anything negative regarding Vidal, it's like a lynch mob.
So we must be done 'preparing' the bid
He is coming, i have faith in woodward (after a small rant in his thread) 
He is again nowhere to be seen in Juve's latest photos on their FB page about a gala evening in Sydney with Piero. It can't be coincidence that he is being kept out of all of their promotional activities on tour.
Don't ask me why, but you made me remember the sad face Luis Suarez had at the MCG last year. Last year Thiago was left out Barça's promotional stuff ahead of the new season, and he left. Same thing with Fabregas.
Yeah, yeah, the date keeps getting further away and when the 17th comes, Twitter will say deadline day etc.
More bullshit as usual to keep people hanging on.
Agree. The deadline and agent meeting was supposed to happen a few weeks ago.
Or possibly the reason is because he is unlikely to feature in their pre season games.
That's very feasible.
I wonder who our deadline day back up option is this year?
Shots fired.
All that time spent preparing is about to pay off!
Most likely no one. Van Gaal isn't one to panic buy if he can't get his first choice.
Why would we have to wait until they are back off tour before submitting our bid??? What a load of nonsense.
we are done with the preparation, woohooo, now need to plan out how we will notify juve. Need to prepare for that.
Suddenly, I actually feel as if we're actually moving on with this. United have almost had a week to sort out who they want to keep, and confirm who they want to bring in.
The preparation is over. Time for action. Time for Arturo
The preparation is over. Time for action. Time for Arturo
If he has decided to leave & has the cheque in his hand why would he wait till 17th to submit it to Juve? Is he too lazy to re-schedule Vidal's return ticket? I call bullshit.
Keeping Fellatio?
For me at least, it's not so much the point's you make, but the way you go about telling people how this and that is 'total bollox' and insulting people instead of getting your point across. It's like you try to post provocative things on purpose. You can't play the'at least I have an opinion' card forever. It pisses people off. What comes around goes around.
Just look at your post which I quoted. If you had just posted it three pages ago instead, you would've saved yourself a lot of trouble and still get your debate without winding up a bunch of fellow fans in the process.
The most well prepared bid in football history!!
be hilarious if it was rejected straight away after all this
Woody's face when he sends in the bid:
His face when he hears instantly it's rejected:
I have no idea if we're after Vidal or not but if we are I'm quite sure Woodward is playing a waiting game. With so much money involved this can go on until the last day of the transfer window. And from United's perspective it doesn't matter because Vidal is injured and will probably not play a competitive game before the end of the month. Hopefully it will be solved earlier but don't be surprised if you have to visit this space another 20 days or so.
I think with transfers, the longer the go on naturally the more concerning it is. The irony is in reality we don't even know if we are interested. I'm sure the 'no smoke without fire' thinking might be true but personally I'm worried. It's got Cesc written all over it. I'm not sure why historically (even with CL football), we struggle to make these type of transfers happen when Barca, Real, BM, Chelsea or Arsenal (if they got the cheque book out more often) it seems to happen very quickly?
Posts aren't showing.
Been deleted apparently. They were pics and updates off Vidal training alone doing light ball work in Australia.
When are Juve playing again?
