Everyone is going to want him soon, probably at the end of next season after the CL campaign. We'll be fending off crazy bids.

Yep, Pirlo > Barzagli > Vidal > Licht (I slightly give the to Vidal because his presence is more dominating) > The rest.
P.S Didnt mention Gigi because his norm goes without saying, I dont really try to evaluate him, or notice his performances, he stands out to me when he makes errors, not otherwise hehe.

to be fair though Pirlo's success this season has come down largely with having marchisio and vidal next to him in midfield, to create the space and movement which allows Pirlo the time he requires to distribute the ball, so for that reason i'd say Vidal's purchase was greater than Pirlo's from a tactical point of view, from a financial perspective both were bargains.
Fair enough. 
Vidal has had a great month or so, but he put in a lot of poor/indifferent performances in the first half of the season and that shouldn't be forgotten. It's not a criticism, because people need time to adapt, but he still put in some very poor displays.
Heaps of 'he was great except for....' performances that lots of people round here rave about and that I dislike.
Barzagli and Pirlo have been the two outfield players whose performances have been at a consistently high level all season.
And I don't get the idea that Marchisio has been inconsistent. He plays to a pretty similar level the vast majority of the time, it's just that he gets used in all sorts of different ways (even when playing in exactly the same position all the time), so sometimes his performances are more eye-catching than they are at other times.

I forgot barza 
Can't say barza has been better, maybe just as good. Considering marchisio's inconsistency vidal has been instrumental in letting pirlo play his game.
Barza is up there too though.

I appriciate what Vidal brings to the table alot BD, and I was excited for his signing (cool to see how he is litterally adapting to the league every month), but how the heck is he greater in tactical point of view then Pirlo? The same Pirlo IS more or less our tactic. We pretty much changed to play in this way because of him.
And our midfield trio is fantastic BD, saying Pirlo is the best player this season doesnt dispute that, but just pointing out that he is.

Marchisio does his job well, but he is not irreplaceable even in this team. But Vidal is absolutely vital, he did make mistakes in the earlier part of the season but let's not forget this is his first season in Italy and at Juve. That excuse is not valid anymore but then again Vidal has not really left any need for excuses.
Back to barza, yeah i admit he was better than Vidal but by the thinnest of margins.
Barza isnt better then Vidal this season by thinnest margin, but by a clear one, Barza has held the same high consistent standard for pretty much ALL games except 2 I recall which I could honestly say he was questionable in some moments. While Vidal spent months being erratic, energetic, but erratic and questionable perfomances.
If the difference between their seasons so far is supposed to be thin, then the periods where they struggled oughta to be somewhat close, while it isnt at all.
