Umm why would you understand if it was for Italy, but not Chile? A NT is a NT, not affliated to the club either way, but if they feel a players behaviour needs to be fined, then its equally valid for whatever the NT. Not thats the case in this regard, just the option was mentionned.
Why is which NT it is relevant?

And also, Marrotta is acting appropriately:

“Once we have verified all of the facts we will then decide what action to take.”

Perfectly sensible thing to say.
I said I would understand if Vidal was playing for Italy since Marotta is Italian, either way, it's just wrong to even think of fining him because he was 45 mins late to a NT training session when he is working his ass off all season in Juve training sessions.

Marotta should've just kept silent, this is a matter between Vidal and his NT.

Out of curiousity what're the rules with the clubs on these things? Technically what Vidal did is unrelated to Juve at all/jeopardized any of our games, unlike when Davids was fined for partying or something. But I suppose as long as the season is still ongoing Juve has the right to fine any of their players' misconduct
That's the only explanation I can think of.

Just causing the Juventus name to be associated with negative publicity, I suppose, would be that rational behind any disciplinary action from Juve.

sorry mister I Know Everything, but can you show me a copy of rules whitin the club? How do you know what is matter between what? Marotta said he'll talk to Vidal, to Chilean coach, and will make a decision. If he was really late because he drank too much after the christening, then why can't juve punish him? He is under Juventus FC contract, so Juventus has all the rights to punish him financially.

I remember Mutu and a dozen of Brazilian players were cut from their NT for disciplinary matters, and yet they were not punished by their clubs. So, I don't think there's a rule connecting the club with what happens during NT duties.

This is just nonsense, IMO.

Just because they didn't punish the players doesn't mean they weren't entitled to.

Why should we get involved in Chile's business? We have a good thing going on with Vidal and as long as he's professional with us there is no need to react this way from Marotta and the rest.

If he acted inappropriately while on international duty, Juve has all right to fine him... its what the Juve of old would have done. When players had to actually be disciplined whether on NT duty or Club duty because on both occasions, they are representing the club directly or indirectly and are ambassadors and reflections of the club... I have no problem with a fine once the situation is duly investigated

Why the fuck are people complaining over this? A fine would only do him good. Teach him that Juve players should not be fucking around no matter where they're playing. Simple as that.

Fining Vidal would be the stupidest possible thing. I mean christening a baby is something holy and 40 minutes more is nothing. He didn't miss any training and he wasn't drunk just drunk a beer or two.

Marotta even thinking about it is pathetic. The players and the management must stand together as a group not listen to some pathetic lying Chilean coach.

I'm against the fine if it turns out that he was merely following a religious practice in a christening ceremony.

What could he possibly learn from such a fine? His actions were those of social, cultural and religious obligations.

Juve would only risk fucking up the relationship with the player.

He was out of line, though, but he was out of line with Chile. Juve should butt out of this one. If anything, he only deserves a warning.

Why would Juve fine vidal for his issues with Chile NT? does not make sense although bad behaviour is never a good sign. Should be given a strong warning but don't want to piss him off now :D
