So Zidane was a legend, and Vidal is not?
I do not agree with zidane being a juve legend, even when he is my all time favorite player. A football world legend yes, but i dont find enoguth excuses to make him a legend for juve, apart of his ungodly skill.
He left us for real madrid in look of greener pastures and his heart is in madrid. That alone is a deal breaker for me.

He is a football great, like Pirlo.... but the way he left, i dont like it not even a little. A hero is a hero till beggining to end.

How come it's tough to get players from other big teams and it's easy to get ours? If Vidal has to go, I would expect 50m euros in return because it's so hard to find his replacement for the money we got from the sale.

Zidane was one of the greatest players to ever touch football, played in the strongest league at that time, ofc he'd make it to legend section.
Agree with all that. But Vidal was a good prospect at 24; he came to a train wreck of a team who finished 7th back to back seasons. Scored in his first competitive match for Juve, becamse the best b2b midfielder in the world and was instrumental in bringing us to a level we are now. If that's not enough for a legend status, I don't know what is.
Those post calciopoli years were so painful that I would give anybody who helped us a great deal out of that shithole a legend status. Lichtsteiner would be next.

Players like Buffon, Del Piero, Nedved... these are Juventus legends, players people will remember for a long time and when they think of them they will think of Juve. Vidal spent 4 years at the club and is leaving in his prime.

I can't believe we're even arguing about this.

We should remove Zidane from the section, then.

That argument that Zidane is a football legend, not a Juve legend makes sense. But he has a place in legends section, so I don't think there's a common consensus on who a legend is.
Also, in modern football, it's very difficult to find a legend by your definition. Ideally we want every section to grow, and not be something only older fans would relate to.
