I somehow prefer Vidal as a trequartista. First of all, he'll lock the center down and will stifle any creativity coming from the other team while providing a lot of runs. He has the stamina and ability to pull it off a lot better.
The only thing is that he is fantastic defensively. He runs from box to box consistently and regains possession the most for us. I think playing him up there will somewhat lessen his ability to do that. It might even be worth trying to play him alongside Pirlo and have Pogba up there.
That would be terrible guys, where is the width in those lineups?
If we use 4-2-3-1, we need pacey players on the side who can actually take on their defender and cross, which Marchisio and Asamoah(to a lesser extent) can't do.

It's unfair that Vidal wasn't chosen for Serie A top 11, he was better than both Marchisio and Nocerino, and one can argue even Pirlo. To me, I think Vidal is the engine that get our team going.
