Yeah, Juventus, a club who don't even need to sell right now, are going to sell the best midfielder in the world for 32 million. The funniest part is people actually believe it :lol:
I wish people would stop calling him the best midfielder in the world. I doubt a lot of us including me has seen much of Vidal play pre World Cup.

I think a lot of it comes from the fact that he's been the ideal signing for our lazy midfield ever since he was at Leverkusen. He'd be perfect.
 
Don't need to sell? They missed out on Sanchez because they couldn't afford the fee no?

No.

Juventus don't need to sell him or Pogba. It's not a matter of "Okay, we have no choice". They want to keep both but when you've got two players of that talent, it's tough to do that. They'll try to keep hold of both or at least one and on that basis it'll take a large fee for either of them. 32 million for one of the best around who's at a good age isn't even going to come close.

I've been watching him for about five/six years so I'm not even sure what you're on about. He's been the best midfielder in the world for close to two years now IMO.
 
A tangled web of shit.

We're easy targets for those papers really. Link us to a player and they get probably get a few thousand hits from all over the world.

Cant beat "Sport Witness" calling people out with their bollox itk shit..

Those "Sport Witness" people are the sporting wing of Jehovahs Witness - so they see & hear everything :angel:
 
I keep calling every rumour bullshit but when so many people and outlets are reporting Vidal to us it has to be considered there may be something in it.

5 at back, Carrick holding, Herrera and Vidal box-to-box, Mata and Di Maria behind RvP, with Rooney on the bench. Somebody stop us. #MUFC

I didn't realize we were allowed to field 12 players!

Edit: Unless he is including the GK in the 5 at the back. I was assuming he meant 5 as in 3 CBs and 2 wingbacks.
 
if you don't know enough of Vidal, its your problem mate.
Yeah looks like it is. Obviously I knew about him, but it's only since the WC or our reported interest in him that he's now the best CM in the world.
All I know is he'd be fecking fantastic for us.
 
On no I agree but I think he would be able to adapt his game, like Scholes for example, to play on for longer whilst playing at top level.

He definitely can.

2014-15
Vidal-Herrera
----Carrick---

or

Vidal-Herrera

2016-??
Herrera-CM
----Vidal---

Not true.

Even Arturo Vidal declared himself the greatest midfielder in the world earlier this year.

I'd play:
--Rooney--RvP--Di Maria--
--Mata--
--Vidal--Herrera--
--Shaw--Evans--Smalling--Rafa--
--De Gea--​

If we want to be a bit more defensive, we can replace Mata with Carrick like so:
--Rooney--RvP--Di Maria--
--Vidal--Herrera--
--Carrick--
--Shaw--Evans--Smalling--Rafa--
--De Gea--​

 
Vidal is 27 now - so maybe 3-4 years of top level football left in him ? A lower price than many expect may actually be true. If he was 22, it would obviously be much higher.
Who is the best midfielder in the world then? Not an attack, genuinely interested in who you believe is.
