Arturo Vidal (69 Viewers)

[baggio]

I know people jumped all over him when he said it, but we've sold bigger/better players than Vidal and lived to tell the tale. Its not ideal, its not what I personally want...but it aint the end of the world at all.

This move just looks too forced, whether the player initiated it or the management. Also, it's tricky because it comes at a time when we already lost two really huge stalwarts of the team in Pirlo and Tevez. Add Vidal to that, and we know it's something we could avoid given the season and mercato we've had so far.

I sincerely hope there's a high profile signing to vindicate this and send the right message to the team and the other clubs in Europe.

IF Vidal wanted out, we really had no choice.

€35m + bonus :facepalm2: why don't we just bend over while we're at it, here was me thinking last night that we were showing some balls by demanding €45m at least and now we settle for this. If we don't get Goetze, Isco, Reus or Oscar then this move is a failure.

Vidal asked to be sold according to SKY.

South American players @Zacheryah

It's 40 million in total. Meh.

 

[Salvo]

Who knows. We just need to make the right moves now.

Shocking fee. Poor sale.

Bet you some clowns will ask his thread to be put on legends forum.

He's more or less doubled his salary by signing with Bayern

If players push hard to leave you rarely get the offer you want. Maybe he is worth €45m right now considering his recent injury problems. At his peak he was worth €60m+, but he's not that right now, and if he's not happy then the price does come down.

When you own the players contract, you always have a choice. Rooney wanted out of Utd. The club made a choice to lock it down. I don't want to go back into that debate, just want to look forward to see if we are actually pursuing Gotze, or a ridiculous move for Draxler?

Laudisa says €5m + bonuses
Sky say it's 6.5m

Here he earns €5m

You're delusional.

I don't think he will ever get back to his best but he is still amazing.

If he wants out, he should leave if someone pays his value not a discounted price.

Tevez and Vidal in one season are huge blows.

Definitely not a Juventus legend.

Can I be the first to say: Fuck Draxler and Cuadrado!

I'd imagine we could've gotten a bit more out of this deal if he pushed hard. The market is seriously inflated. 40m should've been a bare minimum to be honest.

 

[Xperd]

None at Bayern earns more than €12m gross which is around €7m net considering German tax rates.

Doubled his salary indeed.

Rooney was just pushing for a payrise though. United can afford those, we can't.

Should take the chance and start from zero. #sellpogbatoo
