Vidal and Marchisio are basically both allowed to go wherever they want. They run twice as much as the other team so we have an advantage any way you look at it.

But Vidal is mainly used to press whoever has the ball while Marchisio won't do that as often (but he still manages to do it).

Vidal and Marchisio are like a tandem, with Pirlo acting as the bone. One will push up whilst the other sits back vice versa, if they weren't both on the pitch whoever was playing would be called into question on weaknesses they each have. Playing together allows these to be cancleed out as they are a good foil for one another and also for Pirlo do do his thing whilst we are unbelievably energetic, credit to both of them, and also Pirlo.

It's obvious, I don't need someone to agree. You're as annoying as a big piece of shit that can't be flushed away.
A piece of shit that big is something to be proud of.
It's clear as daylight that it's not his passing you don't like. You just dislike the player himself.
Why do you do that, Klin? Honestly? Why the fuck can't people actually dislike a flaw about a player without being labeled a hater? Get over it already. Vidal's weakness is passing, no one is taking away from the other great aspects he provides the team.
great, another one who plays the hater card and shirks from answer the question.
Exactly. If I were to go to the Buffon thread and say he hasn't been the same no one would call me a Buffon hater, but for some reason the Krasic & Vidal threads are so highly protected by a small group that can't stand their players being criticized by flaws that are evident to even the coach, but for some reason they don't see it.
No it doesn't mean that, many posters pointed to some aspects of his game wich he should get better at, hell Asif was critical of him every game. His passing has been bad for a quite sometime but i'm unlike you don't think he's great passer like he's made to be. And i like the way he pressure upfronts but on other hand he doesn't help in our last third as he should be. There are areas on his game where he should pick it up that doesn't mean we hate him.
Of course it does, Cheese. Just read Klin's post to Ahmed. You can't criticize here anymore without being a fanboy, troll or hater.
I'm not playing any card here, but it seems you're playing the dumb one here.

Please don't put words in my mouth. He's not a great passer, I don't know from where you got that impression that I said so. I was merely pointing out that what he brings to the table is much more than decent passing.
You put words in Ahmed's mouth by saying he just outright dislikes the player. Has he actually said it?
wow i cant believe there are vidal haters here :sergio: lets just bring back sissoko! and moan more! :sergio:
There are no haters BD, read all the posts or hush. No one hates Vidal, some just think his passing can be improved. Is that a clear indication of disliking a player?
Clearly the biggest reason why Conte is successfully implementing his ideas.

Comparisons with Melo aren't logical. Comparisons with Sissoko are, though, and Ahmed is right. But it's the Sissoko from the Ranieri era, who was an instrumental player for us.

I don't think that Pazienza has the characteristics to successfully replace Vidal and offer the same things the Chilean offers. I think that we'll be screwed if Arturo gets a longer injury.
Ahmed is right to criticize his passing.
Yes, but still, Vidal's passing is even better than 2008's Sissoko. So still his argument is invalid.
What argument? That vidal's passing isn't that great at times or that he resembles Sissoko? I don't agree with the Sissoko compairison, but I do think his passing is something he needs to work on. We have been lucky that nothing has come of it yet, like a goal against.
Forza Vidal, and haters can suck it all day long!
Forza Vidal and all the people putting words in other peoples mouths can suck it all day as well.

It's so dumb that I or Ahmed can't say Vidal's passing needs improved without it being taken way out of context. He still had fine games, but if he can manage to improving his passing game our possession will only be that much better and the less harder he and the team would have to work fighting to get the ball back.

He has some great passes, quite a few actually but it's the easiest passes he sometimes misses or tries to force. I saw 4 missed ones in the opening 10 minutes, you can't do that playing away to a big team. You just can't.

Do you ever criticize Marchisio? I guess thats what people react to. They see Ahmed, Cheese and Hustini criticizing Vidal yet they never, ever criticize Marchisio although most of this forum thought he was bad.

I have, in his earlier games. Both Cheese and I. I don't know if Ahmed or Matt have, but I know Cheese and I highlighted some weak games from him earlier. Definitely.

Ever since this war broke out when I called Vidal out for his passing against Milan it's been the same thing. Us trying to defend ourselves against some pretty annoying accusations and just trying to point out a flaw that Vidal has had, just as some of you have pointed out against marchisio.

I do, when he did have a supbar game, i said it, tough it's was only one game this year, But it's cool to criticize Cheesio and make jokes about him but when someone points to something that Vidal should do better or say that he had a bad game, he's quickly labelled an Interista like, hater, troll...

Double standards much ?
